Team Previews
Multan Region (MULTAN) Preview
Multan are 3rd in Group D despite a narrow 3-wicket loss to Sialkot. Muhammad Shehzad (55 runs) has been their standout batter, while Muhammad Ismail (4 wickets) leads the bowling attack. Their middle order, featuring Zain Abbas and Zeeshan Ashraf, needs to step up. The bowling unit, with Aamer Yamin and Faisal Akram, is well-rounded but needs better execution in death overs.
Strengths:
- Strong top order with Shehzad and Ashraf.
- Experienced all-rounders like Aamer Yamin.
Weaknesses:
- Middle-order inconsistency.
- Over-reliance on Shehzad for runs.
AJK Region (AJKR) Preview
AJK Region are 4th in Group D after a 4-wicket loss to FATA. Hasnain Nadeem (53 runs) and Hassan Raza (33 runs) have been their batting mainstays, but the middle order collapsed in the last game. Aqib Liaqat (2 wickets) and Zaman Khan lead the bowling, but their lack of depth in both departments is a concern.
Strengths:
- Openers Nadeem and Raza in decent form.
- Zaman Khan’s pace and accuracy.
Weaknesses:
- Fragile middle order.
- Lack of wicket-taking options in bowling.
