Gaddafi Stadium Pitch Report
Lahore Stadium is one of the highest-scoring grounds in PSL. However, the average score here is 172 over the six editions that have been played here. In PSL 2024, two matches have been played here, with the average score being 200. No clear pattern as to which team has an advantage (chasing or batting first) has emerged so far.
The first match saw Islamabad United chase 196 with ease (10 balls left), while the second match saw Peshawar Zalmi lose while chasing 207. With 42 matches being played here, batting first has suited the team more, with a win percentage of 61.9.
