MS vs QTG Match Prediction & Analysis
Sultans will face the table-toppers in their last match of the league stage. In their previous encounter against the Gladiators, the Mohammad Rizwan-led side was bowled out for 89 runs batting first in Lahore.
Quetta Gladiatorsβ batting looked shaky in their run chase against Islamabad United. However, they quickly bounced back, scoring 263 while batting first against the same opposition in the very next game.
Multan Sultans, on the other hand, have been struggling to post a decent score on the board. Sultans finished with 108, 117, and 89 runs in their last 3 outings. They will be up against a strong bowling attack led by Mohammad Amir, who finished with figures of 3 for 6 runs in his last match.
The table-toppers have a clear edge over the hosts in this match. They have a great variety in the bowling attack, and the batting is also much stronger in comparison.
TEAMS PREVIEW
Multan Sultans Preview
We had dissected Multanβs batting earlier in this season and pointed out the clear flaws that would keep them behind in the contest. The lack of reliable batters in the middle order and the over-dependence on the top 4 were meant to eventually lead to their downfall.
This would be the case with any team with such dynamics in the batting department. However, with Sultans, it was even worse as the side managed to win just 1 game in the season.
Yasir Khan and Mohammad Rizwan are solid batters in the top order. The openers seem to have lost their rhythm, and the entire batting has now crumbled. They have Shai Hope at number 4, and we reckon he could make an impact.
The former West Indies captain is known to be a reliable batsman in any side. He will be one to watch out for in this game. Australian all-rounder and match-finisher Ashton Turner follows at number 5.
He adds more strength to the Sultansβ middle order. There have been many other promising batters in this lineup in previous matches, but none have delivered impactful performances.
The bowlers wonβt be able to make an impact without the batters doing their job well. David Willey, Mohammad Hasnain, and Usama Mir are the frontline bowlers who are responsible for delivering breakthroughs for Multan.
Quetta Gladiators Preview
Quetta Gladiators will be confident coming into this match. They secured a huge win in their last game and have already defeated Multan Sultans in a previous game.
Their batting and bowling are both in fine touch. With Rossouw scoring a big hundred, the Gladiators would be even more confident. The South African southpaw batsman is back in form at the right time.
QTG have Saud Shakeel and Finn Allen at the top. The latter has been in great touch in recent times. He will be a key player to watch out for. Hasan Nawaz, the 22-year-old top-order batter, has been a great find for the Gladiators.
He was the other centurion alongside Rossouw in the last match against ISU. The batting lineup is quite deep with Mark Chapman and Kusal Mendis to follow in the lower middle order.
Faheem Ashraf is a key all-rounder who will be expected to deliver wickets and, if required, can be handy in the lower order. In the bowling attack, Mohammad Amir and Abrar Ahmed are key wicket-takers who will play a key role for the Gladiators in this match.
The two are reliable wicket-taking bowlers and will have the support of others like Mohammad Wasim and Khurram Shahzad.
Weather Conditions
The weather will be clear with periodic clouds in Multan with a high of 34 degrees Celsius. There are no signs of rain on the match day, especially around the match time. So, we can expect a complete and uninterrupted T20 game between the two sides.
MS vs QTG Pitch Report
It is a great pitch for batters. However, the hosts have struggled to post a competitive total on the board while batting first. Sultans would also consider bowling first and giving their key bowlers a chance to gain the upper hand in this match. The average 1st innings score in the last 3 PSL matches on this ground is 168 runs. However, it wonβt be a match-winning total in this contest. The team batting first should aim for something over 185-190 runs to get themselves ahead in this contest.
Toss: To Bowl
Teams bowling first have won 2 of the 3 PSL 2025 matches at this venue. The last two games here saw the chasing team win quite comfortably, while Multan Sultansβ only win came in the first game at this venue while defending 228 runs. The Gladiators are in great form with bat and ball and will back themselves to chase down a target.
