Their bowlers allowed 181/7, and even though their batters got starts, they could only reach 167/7 in the chase. Players like Rilee Rossouw and Ben McDermott showed intent, but the middle order failed to finish the job. Hyderabad Kingsmen, captained by Marnus Labuschagne, had a tough start to their campaign as they lost heavily to Lahore Qalandars by 69 runs.
Quetta will depend on some of the best spinners in the world, Abrar Ahmed and Usman Tariq to keep things tight in the middle overs, while Hyderabad’s bowlers, including Maheesh Theekshana and Riley Meredith, will be aiming to improve after their previous outing. Shamyl Hussain and Saim Ayub, both these players had an impressive outing in their last match and should be backed for captaincy as per our QUE vs HYK Dream11 team prediction.
