Match no. 7 in the ongoing Global Super League (GSL) 2024 between Victoria (VIC) and Lahore Qalandars (LAH) takes place at the Providence Stadium in Guyana, on Wednesday, December 4.

The Corey Anderson-led side won their opening game against Guyana Amazon Warriors by four wickets as they chased down a 163-run target with four balls to spare. In their second game, Victoria got the better of Rangpur Riders by 10 runs as they successfully defended a 152-run target.
Lahore Qalandars, led by Carlos Brathwaite, started their campaign with a six-wicket defeat against Guyana Amazon Warriors in the curtain raiser. They were dismissed for 125 before Guyana completed the run-chase with six wickets and 13 balls to spare. In their second game, Qalandars bounced back commendably as they defeated Hampshire by four runs, successfully defending a 136-run target.

Pitch Report
The average first innings score in the first six matches in GSL 2024 has been around 142. Three out of the six games have been won by chasing teams. The captain who wins the toss would want to bowl first and have a target in front. Making the most of the powerplay overs is crucial as runs can be hard to come by when the field spreads out and the ball gets softer.
