All the PSL fans will be delighted to know that the league would finally get a new champion as both the teams-Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars-locking horns in the finals are yet to bag the coveted trophy.
A cracker of a contest is expected between these two teams who are expected to give their best in the “all or nothing” clash. The icing on the cake for both sides is that they have made the finals for the first time. Expect a humdinger!
PREVIEW FOR DREAM11 FANTASY:
Big matches are often decided by moments of brilliance. Both these teams have a bunch of such brilliant individuals within their setup who can change the game in a span of a few overs. Expect the likes of Babar Azam, Mohammad Amir, Imad Wasim to deliver for Karachi Kings while Lahore Qalandars will be looking up to professor Mohammad Hafeez, Fakhar Zaman, and all-rounder David Wise to come up with the goods once again in the final.
X-Factor Players To Watch Out For:
Mohammad Amir (KRK)
Fakhar Zaman (LHQ)
WEATHER CONDITION:
The weather is predicted to be pleasant tomorrow and we can expect a full game. Wind velocity is expected to be around 23 km/hour. The daytime temperature is going to hit 30° C and the temperature is going to drop to 16° C at night. Humidity is expected to hover around 32%
PITCH REPORT:
The pitch at the National Stadium, Karachi has played pretty well leading up to the finals and both teams would be hoping that the pitch remains the same for the entire duration of 40 overs. The team winning the toss would want to bat first considering the amount of pressure a final can bring upon the chasing team. A score of above 170 could prove to be challenging under lights.
Babar who has been in tremendous form would dearly like to make a telling contribution in the finals too while Fakhar would love to replicate his Champions Trophy heroics (2017) once again in the PSL 2020 final.
Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf would be more than a handful on this wicket with their bag of tricks. Mohammad Amir would want to remind everyone that he is still a big match player.

Both the teams have all players fit and available at their disposal who would be raring to go.
