Lahore Qalandars vs Islamabad United team news:

The Islamabad United squad will be without Tom Curran this season, as he has reportedly been ruled out due to a knee injury that he sustained last month in Australia. He missed the last phase of the BBL and the entire ILT20. With his IPL commitment in March, Curran is unlikely to risk himself in the PSL.

There is no update yet on the fitness of fast bowler Naseem Shah, who has been recovering from a shoulder injury since the Asia Cup last year.

Lahore Qalandars have received a big blow as leg-spinner Rashid Khan has pulled out from the entire PSL season as he recovers from a back surgery that he underwent a couple of months ago. He has missed all action—BBL, SA20, and international matches with Afghanistan—since the World Cup.

The Qalandars also partially won’t have England all-rounder Dan Lawrence, as he is with the England Test squad in India this month.
