NOTES - STRENGTHS/WEAKNESSES
1) They are on a dream run with 2 finals in 2 seasons, and surely they will be looking for their Hattrick of final appearances as well.
2) Arguably one of the best batting unit with a technically sound Rizwan-Masood duo around the explosive trio of Miller-David-Pollard and an upcoming youngster in Usman at the top. A Batting unit worth fearing for the oppositions, and a unit which takes off pressure from Rizwan at the top for him to play his natural game.
3) A young bowling unit but all of them having very high capabilities with the ball. Afridi-Gul-Akeal-Dahani-Little around the experience of Parnell and Anwar Ali could actually prove their worth here as well. Akeal and Little have proved it all over the world and now they would want to make a mark at the PSL as well.
