MS vs QUE TEAMS PREVIEW
Multan Sultans:
Multan Sultans have enjoyed a successful campaign so far, winning six out of their nine games on their path to the top of the Points Table. However, their recent form raises some concerns, with two consecutive losses denting their momentum. In their last match against Peshawar Zalmi, Sultans fell just short of a daunting target of 205 despite a valiant effort by Iftikhar Ahmed and Chris Jordan, who launched a late-order assault. In the subsequent game against Islamabad United, Sultans posted a formidable total of 228 runs, courtesy of Usman Khan’s blistering century, but their bowlers struggled to contain runs, conceding 19 extras and failing to pick up crucial wickets.
The predicted playing XI for Multan Sultans includes key players such as Mohammad Rizwan, Usman Khan, Johnson Charles, and Chris Jordan. In their previous game, Usman Khan shone with the bat, scoring a scintillating century, while Abbas Afridi and Mohammad Ali impressed with the ball.
Quetta Gladiators:
Quetta Gladiators secured a nerve-wracking victory against Lahore Qalandars in their last match, with Saud Shakeel’s impressive knock of 88 runs steering them to a crucial win. However, the Gladiators have endured a tough run in their recent outings, suffering defeats against Peshawar Zalmi and Karachi Kings, which impacted their Net Run Rate negatively. Despite their scratchy win against Lahore, Gladiators need to display better intent and urgency, particularly with the bat, against table-toppers Multan Sultans.
The predicted playing XI for Quetta Gladiators features notable names like Jason Roy, Saud Shakeel, Khawaja Nafay, and Mohammad Amir. In their previous game, Saud Shakeel’s heroic innings guided the Gladiators to victory, supported by contributions from Khawaja Nafay and Jason Roy. The spin duo of Akeal Hosein and Abrar Ahmed will be crucial in providing breakthroughs for Gladiators.
