Gladiators win toss, opt to bowl against Zalmi

Quetta Gladiators have won the toss and elected to bowl first against Peshawar Zalmi in the first eliminators of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season three being played at Gaddafi Stadium Lahore on Tuesday.

On the points table, both teams sit with 10 points each, after winning five and losing five matches in this season’s league stage.

However, Zalmis are carrying on the momentum as they managed to straightened up just at the right moment, after back-to-back victories in their last two games and the Zalmis have finally ticked in all the departments.

The other major advantage the Zalmi have is they will be bringing their entire team for the playoffs, an advantage that unfortunately not enjoyed by Sarfraz’s men.

The Gladiators are visibly weak after the departure of star batsman Kevin Pietersen and all rounder Shane Watson. However, they have brought in former Sri Lankan captain Thisara Perera and Bangladesh batsman Mahmudullah as their replacements.
