Multan Sultans:

Multan Sultans have played decently so far in this season as they have 1 match and lost 1 and are currently at the 4th position on the points table with 2 points.

In the last match, batting first Sultans started pretty well but lost their 1st wicket, Shan Masood, in the final over of power play who had scored 21 runs. They managed to score 42 runs in the power play. After that, they lost the two wickets of Moeen Ali 10 runs and Rille Rossouw for a duck in the 10th over. But at the other end, James Vince 42 runs played brilliantly, but he too got out in the 12th over, and Sultans looked in deep trouble. Then Zeeshan Ashraf played brilliant innings of 50 runs from just 29 balls and helped the Sultans post a total of 164 runs in 20 overs for the loss of 8 wickets.

With 165 runs to defend, Sultans gave away runs right from the start of the innings and weren’t able to pick up wickets either. They gave away 63 runs in the power play and picked up their 1st wicket in the 10th over after 92 runs. Even after the 1st wicket, they couldn’t do anything and somehow managed to pick the 2nd wicket in the 17th overs for 163 runs and the match was over by then and the opposition chased down the target in 16.5 overs, and as a result, Sultans lost the game by 8 wickets. Mohammad Ilyas and Shahid Afridi picked up 1 wicket each.

Multan Sultans would be hoping to win the next match against the Peshawar Zalmi and get back to their winning ways.

They picked up the 2nd wicket in the 8th over and never allowed the opposition to score freely. In the middle overs, they weren’t able to pick up wickets, but they kept the run rate in check and managed to pick up the 3rd wicket in the 15th over and after that picked up wickets at regular intervals. They restricted the opposition to a total of 148 runs in 20 overs for the loss of 5 wickets. Wahab Riaz bowled well and picked up 2 wickets for just 21 runs in his 4 overs.

But the star of the match Kamran Akmal played brilliantly and scored 101 runs from only 55 balls and along with Haider Ali 25 runs in the middle overs ensured that Zalmi could win the match pretty quickly. In the death overs, Zalmi lost a couple of wickets, but the game was almost done by that moment, and they chased down the target in 18.3 overs and won the match by 6 wickets.
