On Sunday, February 26, the 15th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2023 is scheduled to take place between Peshawar Zalmi and Lahore Qalandars. Shaheen Shah Afridi’s Qalandars team got off to a strong start by defeating Mohammad Rizwan’s Multan Sultans by one run. They were pushed back, however, by a crushing 67-run defeat against the Karachi Kings of Imad Wasim.
However, the Lahore Qalandars made amends by defeating the Quetta Gladiators by 63 runs. After returning with impressive numbers of 4-0-22-3, Afridi won the award for the Player of the Match.

With a net run rate of -1.137, they are in jeopardy at number four in the table.
