The 17th Match of PSL 2023 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, rising underdogs Karachi Kings and Babar Azam’s Peshawar Zalmi will face off in the 17th Match of the PSL 2023. Learn everything you need to know about this exciting matchup, including the anticipated starting lineup, the weather report, team news, and much more.
The Peshawar Zalmi is fifth in the PSL 2023 points table despite losing three of their next four games after winning their first one. However, don’t rule out this team just yet because they have arguably the best T20 batsman opening the batting.
Karachi Kings did not lose any of its first three PSL 2023 games. However, they have come back strong, winning two of their last three games, their most recent victory coming in Match 14 against the determined Multan Sultans.
Even though the Head-to-Head record clearly shows that Peshawar Zalmi will win Match 17, Karachi Kings appear to be settling into a better unit. Because Malik has given them the bowling depth they need, players like Wade, Tahir, and Vince appear to be in better shape.
We anticipate that the top three Kings will have a greater impact because Rawalpindi has been a dreadful venue for batsmen. We believe Karachi Kings will prevail over Peshawar Zalmi in Match 17.
At odds of 1.95, Karachi Kings are favored to defeat Peshawar Zalmi.
During the game, the temperature will be around 24 degrees, so the stadium will mostly be surrounded by clouds. Due to the 20% chance that rain will stop the play, the humidity will also reach its highest point around 48%.
With a quick outfield and plenty of consistent bounce, this is a great place for batsmen to play because the ball always hits them perfectly. However, the spinners may occasionally turn. At this location, both captains will want to bat first because the concerned wicket may slow down under lights.
In the previous PSL 2023 match, Peshawar Zalmi defeated the Karachi Kings by 2 runs in a nail-biting contest. In addition, they have won each of their last five matches against the Kings.

Zalmi’s best batsman in this PSL season has been Tom Kohler Cadmore. He even hit 55 runs against the Lahore Qalandars in just 23 balls. Wahab Riaz, on the other hand, was the only bowler for the same team who took two wickets.
We anticipate that the left-arm pacer will also be their most successful wicket-taker in Match 17. In the previous victory for the Karachi Kings, Tayyab Tahir destroyed the Multan Sultans with 65 runs scored at a strike rate of 141.
In contrast, Tabraiz Shamsi was their best bowler, taking three wickets for just 18 runs in four overs. We expect Shamsi to take over two wickets even in Match 17, given how well the South African spinner used Pakistan’s flat pitches.
