Team Previews
Multan Sultans Preview
Multan Sultans, captained by Mohammad Rizwan, have had a rough start to the tournament but found some momentum after defeating Lahore Qalandars in their last outing. However, their bowling remains a concern. The batting lineup is stable with Yasir Khan showing his capabilities at the top. Rizwan’s experience and calm demeanor continue to provide stability. The middle order—featuring Usman Khan, Ashton Turner, and Bracewell—has shown potential but needs to convert starts into big scores.
David Willey and Michael Bracewell are key with the ball, though they’ve lacked penetration in the powerplay overs. Ubaid Shah and Joshua Little must step up to tighten the middle overs. Iftikhar Ahmed’s all-round abilities could be a game-changer if he gets going. Multan will need to show discipline with the ball and deliver under pressure to beat a high-flying Islamabad side.
Key Players: Mohammad Rizwan, Yasir Khan, Iftikhar Ahmed, David Willey
Team Weakness: Inconsistent bowling unit and poor powerplay wickets.
Islamabad United Preview
Islamabad United, led by Shadab Khan, have been in top form, winning 4 matches in a row. Their squad looks balanced and full of impact players. The top order featuring Sahibzada Farhan and Azam Khan is in terrific form. Colin Munro brings in the experience while Shadab Khan and Mohammad Nawaz stabilize the middle order.
The depth in the batting lineup is a major strength for Islamabad. They can bat deep with power hitters like Jason Holder and Imad Wasim in the lower order. On the bowling front, Ben Dwarshuis and Naseem Shah form a formidable new-ball pair. Holder and Imad add control in the middle overs, while Nawaz and Shadab provide variation.
With their current momentum and overall squad strength, Islamabad United are a serious title contender this season.
Key Players: Azam Khan, Shadab Khan, Ben Dwarshuis, Naseem Shah
Team Strength: All-round performance and tactical balance in all departments.
