With eight points after four victories in six games, the Sultans would like to avenge their earlier defeat.
To compete against the hot-hitting Qalandars, Multan Sultans must overcome their surprising 66-run loss to Karachi Kings on February 26 at the National Stadium in Karachi. Rizwan, who leads the league in scoring with 358 runs, and Shan Masood constitute a potent opening pair. Rilee Rossouw and David Miller, two South African powerhouses, bolster their batting order. In order to control the Qalandars, the Sultans will look to their top fast bowler, Ihsanullah, who now has 14 wickets, as well as efficient pacers Abbas Afridi and Usama Mir (10 and 9 wickets, respectively).
With victories over Quetta Gladiators, Islamabad United, and Peshawar Zalmi in their previous three home games, Qalandars have been playing outstanding cricket.
Fakhar Shah and Sikandar Raza, their two primary batters, will try to keep up their strong performance.
Anwar Ali, the paceman for the Sultans, promised that his squad will do everything in its power to break Qalandars’ winning streak.
