Karachi Kings vs Peshawar Zalmi Prediction & Betting Tips 2025

David Warner has failed to live up to the expectation this season as so far this season has been a struggle for Warner. He has scored 164 runs so far and even though he scored 24 in the last game we believe he will score low in the upcoming game.

Saim Ayub has had an underwhelming campaign so far as in eight matches he has scored 119 runs with an average of 14.87 which clearly showcases his struggle which makes us believe he will score low in the upcoming game.
