KHP vs NOR Dream11 Prediction: After winning the last two games, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will look to make a hattrick of wins when they play Northern at National Stadium Karachi, in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy on Thursday morning (IST). Here is KHP vs NOR Prediction for this fixture.
A chastening 186-run defeat to Baluchistan gaped open chinks in their armour, in both bowling and batting, but the drawn match against Sindh gave the team confidence. The season is long and there are plenty of games to make up for the lost ground and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have certainly put their campaign back on track with two straight wins. They beat Southern Punjab by 75 runs and successfully chased down the target in the 4th inning to win by 5 wickets against Central Punjab.
But this will be a difficult game for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, for the opponent is also in good form. In fact, Northern are unbeaten in the last three games, winning twice during that stretch as well.

Competition/Tournament: Quaid-e-Azam Trophy
