SOP vs NOR Dream11

SOP vs NOR Dream11 Prediction: Having drawn the last two games, Southern Punjab will look to get back to winning ways in Quaid-e-Azam Trophy 2020 when they play Northern at United Bank Limited Sports Complex on Wednesday morning (IST). Here is SOP vs NOR Prediction for this fixture.
To win against a strong Sindh team on a batting paradise was always going to take something special with the ball for Southern Punjab. It was not to be as Sindh racked up runs in both innings and gave Punjab to much to do in the 4th inning, when asked to chase 342. Punjab knew they were bound to run out of overs, and so never really went for it and ended at 206/4 with the match ending in a draw.
Norther are also coming into this game on the back of two straight draws, but they haven’t lost since losing by an innings and 96 runs in the opening game against Southern Punjab. Since then, Northern have won two and drawn twice in four matches.
