VAC vs LHQ Match Prediction & Analysis
Victoria have won back-to-back matches in the Global Super League 2024. They will now take on the Lahore Qalandars at the Providence Stadium in Guyana.
The venue isn’t very high-scoring and we’ve seen the bowlers enjoy the upper hand here in recent matches. We believe the bowlers will be crucial in this game as well.
Victoria defended 151 runs in their last outing while Lahore Qalandars won by 4 runs while defending a 135-run total in their last match. Tabraiz Shamsi and Asif Afridi will be the key wicket-takers in the Qalandars’ squad to watch out for.
They’ve been very economical as well and will play a major role in this match. For Victoria, Callum Stow and Max Brithisel hold the key in the bowling department.
Though teams batting first and second have won an equal number of matches so far, we believe batting first should be a better choice given the difficulty in chasing even a par score on this pitch.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Victoria Preview
Corey Anderson is leading Victoria in the Global Super League 2024. The former Kiwi all-rounder hasn’t found his rhythm with the bat yet. His batting returns have been quite poor. He needs to bounce back and score some crucial runs to help the team finish on a high.
The Dutch wicket-keeper bat Scott Edwards is another key batsman who plays near the skipper’s batting position in the lower middle order. The middle order looks pretty solid with Jonathan Wells coming in at number 4.
In the top order, Blake Macdonald and Joe Clarke look promising as openers while Sanjay Krishnamurthi is a key figure at number 3.
Though the batting performances haven’t been exceptional, all of these key players have managed to make significant contributions with the bat, helping Victoria chase down 166 in the opening game and then posting an above-par total of 151 runs in the next outing.
In the bowling attack, the skipper plays a key role. He’s not bowling an entire quota of 4 overs but has managed to deliver a breakthrough even in a couple of overs.
Caltum Stow and Max Birthisel are among the key wicket-taking bowlers for Victoria but the likes of Dominic Drakes and Karima Gore have also shown great promise and will be ones to watch out for.
Victoria Predicted Playing XI:
Blake Macdonald, Joe Clarke, Sanjay Krishnamurthi, Jonathan Wells, Corey Anderson (c), Scott Edwards (wk), Karima Gore, Dominic Drakes, Jackson Smith, Callum Stow, Max Birthisel

Lahore Qalandars Preview
Lahore Qalandars secured their first win of the season as they defended 135 runs in their last match. Luke Wells and Mohammad Akhlaq helped the Qalandars post 135 on the board with some quality knocks in the lower order.
Skipper Carlos Brathwaite who scored 9 in the opening game and did not bat in the second match will be confident with the ball. He picked up a wicket for 25 runs from 3 Overs in his last innings.
The bowling attack looks pretty solid with the likes of Faheem Ashraf, Tabraiz Shamsi, and Luke Wells. They’ve also got Asif Afridi delivering breakthroughs consistently for them.
Adam Rossington and Mirza Baig need to make a comeback at the top if the Qalandars are to gain the upper hand against Victoria in this match. The lack of contributions from the top 3 has hurt Qalandars’ batting performances.
Rossington’s 30 and 25 in the last two outings haven’t made a big impact since he’s found no from his opening partner or the number 3 Asif Afridi. Tom Abell is a big-hitting batsman who comes in at number 5 and will be one to watch out for.
Batting will be a major concern for the Lahore Qalandars going into this match. And without their key performers stepping up and delivering impactful knocks, the Qalandars would find themselves on the back foot.
Lahore Qalandars Predicted Playing XI:
Mirza Tahir Baig, Adam Rossington (wk), Muhammad Faizan, Tom Abell, Luke Wells, Muhammad Akhlaq, Carlos Brathwaite (c), Faheem Ashraf, Asif Afridi, Salman Mirza, Tabraiz Shamsi

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
There will be thunderstorms and showers in Guyana on the match day. The showers are likely to continue all day and we reckon the match would be affected. We are likely to lose overs from both innings and in the worst case scenario, the game could be abandoned.

Batting Conditions
Pace Bowling
Spin Bowling
It is a bowling-friendly wicket that has made life difficult for the batters. Though Victoria managed to chase down 166 in their opening game, other teams have struggled to even chase a 130+ target. The average 1st innings score in the last 10 T20s at this venue is 146 runs. We reckon something around 150 or more can be a match-winning total in this game.
Toss: To Bat
Teams batting first and second have won 3 matches each so far in this tournament. However, considering the difficult conditions for batting, we reckon, having runs on the board is the ideal strategy for winning. Both teams have a quality bowling lineup and can defend a par total on this pitch.
VAC vs LHQ
Winning Prediction
Toss will play a key role in this match and so will the weather. Victoria have a slightly stronger batting lineup with more in-form players. They also have promising bowlers in the side and overall, Victoria will have a slight edge going into this match. Victoria start as favorites in our match prediction.
