Match Preview of Multan Sultan VS Islamabad United

Multan Sultans and Islamabad United will face each other in the 24th match of the 2023 Pakistan Super League at the Pindi Club Ground in Rawalpindi. Both teams are expected to deliver a tough competition on Tuesday, March 7th, as they have shown strong performances in the tournament so far.

Multan Sultans are currently in second place in the points table with eight points from four wins and three losses. However, their two-match losing streak has hindered their progress, and the team's batters need to step up their game as their last two games saw them scoring only 101 and 159 runs, respectively.

On the other hand, Islamabad United has also collected eight points so far, with four wins from six games. Although they are in third place in the standings due to a lower net run rate, the Shadab Khan-led side will be confident after their recent win against Karachi Kings.

Both teams have established themselves as strong contenders in the Pakistan Super League. Multan Sultans started with a loss against Lahore Qalandars but quickly redeemed themselves with four consecutive wins against the top teams. However, they lost their momentum with back-to-back losses to Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars.

Islamabad United also started well, winning three out of their first four matches but suffered a loss against Lahore Qalandars. They returned to winning ways in their last game, defeating Karachi Kings by six wickets.

Azam Khan has been in great form, scoring 277 runs in five matches at a phenomenal strike rate of 169.93. The wicketkeeper-batter could pose a significant threat to Multan's bowlers in the upcoming match.
