Multan Sultans Crush Quetta Gladiators by 79 Runs, Secure Playoff Berth

Multan Sultans Crush Quetta Gladiators by 79 Runs, Secure Playoff Berth

By March 13, 2024 0

Multan Sultans, the table-toppers of the Pakistan Super League (PSL), secured a resounding 79-run victory over Quetta Gladiators on Tuesday, solidifying their position in the playoffs.

The Sultans’ triumph was orchestrated by a dominant bowling performance led by legspinner Usama Mir and fast bowler David Willey, who combined to claim six wickets and dismantle the Gladiators’ batting lineup for a mere 106 runs.

Captain Mohammad Rizwan and West Indian Johnson Charles laid the foundation for the Sultans’ victory with half-centuries, guiding their team to a formidable total of 185 for 4. Rizwan’s 69 runs and Charles’ 53-run knock provided the impetus for the Sultans’ innings, while Iftikhar Ahmed’s quickfire 20 off eight balls added the finishing touches.

The Gladiators’ chase faltered early on as Willey struck twice in the third over, dismissing Jason Roy and Saud Shakeel. Willey’s impeccable yorker then sent captain Rilee Rossouw back to the pavilion, and Laurie Evans’ dismissal left the Gladiators reeling at 29 for 4.

Mir, the tournament’s leading wicket-taker, then took center stage, removing Omair Yousuf, the Gladiators’ top-scorer with 37 runs. Mir’s quick work through the tailenders sealed the Sultans’ emphatic victory with more than four overs to spare.

The Sultans’ triumph sets up a tantalizing Qualifier clash against No. 2 Peshawar Zalmi on Thursday, with the winner advancing to the final. The Gladiators, despite their disappointing performance, will face Islamabad United in the Eliminator on the same day, seeking to extend their playoff run.

Naseem pleaded guilty to the charge and accepted the sanctions proposed by match referee Roshan Mahanama.

Multan Sultans were also fined for maintaining a slow over rate during the match. Each player in the team was fined 10% of their match fees as they were ruled to be one over short of their target.

In a separate incident, Lahore Qalandars all-rounder Sikandar Raza was fined 10% of his match fee for showing dissent at the umpire’s decision during their clash against Quetta Gladiators. Raza raised his arms, shook his head, and gestured that the delivery should have been called a wide ball on three different occasions, violating Article 2.8 of the PSL Code of Conduct.

The PCB has emphasized the importance of adhering to the Code of Conduct and maintaining sportsmanship on the field. These disciplinary actions serve as a reminder to players and teams to respect the rules and regulations of the game.

Islamabad United’s relentless pursuit of a playoff berth culminated in a thrilling three-wicket victory over league leaders Multan Sultans in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). The two-time champions showcased their resilience and firepower in a high-scoring encounter that kept fans on the edge of their seats.

Colin Munro, the New Zealand opener, set the tone for Islamabad’s chase with a blistering 84 off just 40 deliveries. His innings was a masterclass in power-hitting, as he dispatched the Multan bowlers to all corners of the ground. Captain Shadab Khan provided able support, contributing a valuable 54 off 31 balls.

Imad Wasim’s unbeaten 30 in the latter stages of the chase proved crucial, as Islamabad reached the target with three wickets to spare.

Peshawar Zalmi Snatch Four-Run Victory Over Multan Sultans in PSL Thriller

Peshawar Zalmi Snatch Four-Run Victory Over Multan Sultans in PSL Thriller

By March 6, 2024 0

In a thrilling encounter of the Pakistan Super League (PSL), Peshawar Zalmi emerged victorious over table-toppers Multan Sultans by a narrow margin of four runs. Despite a blistering 60 off 27 balls from Iftikhar Ahmed, Sultans fell short of their target of 205 runs, handing Zalmi their second win over the league leaders this season.

Zalmi’s chase got off to a strong start with captain Babar Azam and Saim Ayub putting on a 71-run partnership in the powerplay. Azam continued his impressive form, scoring 64 off 40 balls, while Ayub contributed 46 off 22 balls. However, Usama Mir’s three-wicket haul, including the key wicket of Azam, slowed down Zalmi’s progress.

With 58 runs required off the last three overs, Iftikhar and Chris Jordan launched a counterattack, scoring 75 runs off just 28 balls. Jordan remained unbeaten on 30 off 12 balls, but Zalmi ultimately fell short at 200-5.

Earlier, Sultans had posted a competitive total of 204-5, thanks to Azam’s knock and Ayub’s aggressive batting. However, Zalmi’s rookie left-arm spinner Mehran Mumtaz impressed in the powerplay, dismissing Reeza Hendricks in his debut PSL over.

Sultans’ top-order struggled against Zalmi’s bowling, with Mohammad Rizwan and Dawid Malan falling cheaply. Iftikhar and Jordan’s late surge almost pulled off a victory for Sultans, but Zalmi’s pacers held their nerve in the final overs to secure the win.

With this victory, Zalmi moved closer to a place in the final four, while Sultans remained at the top of the table despite their second loss. The match showcased the exciting and unpredictable nature of the PSL, with both teams displaying their fighting spirit and determination.

Usman Khan's Century Powers Multan Sultans to PSL Playoffs

Usman Khan’s Century Powers Multan Sultans to PSL Playoffs

By March 4, 2024 0

Multan Sultans’ relentless dominance in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) continued on Sunday as they secured a 20-run victory over Karachi Kings, propelled by Usman Khan’s blistering century. The Sultans’ sixth win in seven games solidified their position atop the standings with 12 points, while the Kings remained in fifth place with only two wins from six matches.

Usman, a Pakistan-born player now representing the United Arab Emirates, unleashed a whirlwind innings of 106 not out off just 58 deliveries, reaching his century in a mere 56 balls. His explosive knock, the fastest century of the PSL season, laid the foundation for Multan’s imposing total of 189 for 3. Captain Mohammad Rizwan provided valuable support with a 58-run contribution.

The Kings’ chase never gained momentum, as they struggled to keep up with the Sultans’ imposing target. Skipper Shan Masood’s dismissal for 36 off 29 balls by tournament leading wicket-taker Usama Mir (2-29) set the tone for their struggles. Mir’s wickets tally now stands at 15, while fast bowler Mohammad Ali has 14 after claiming 1 for 40.

Usman and Rizwan capitalized on some wayward Kings bowling, forging a formidable second-wicket partnership of 148 off 93 balls. Rizwan’s half-century was cut short by a catch at mid-off, but Usman continued his onslaught, reaching his ton with a pulled six against Mir Hamza in the final over.

The Kings’ overseas signings, Tim Seifert (1) and James Vince (7), failed to make an impact, falling cheaply within the batting powerplay. Shoaib Malik emerged as their top scorer with 38, but his dismissal in the 12th over left the Kings with a mountain to climb. Soft dismissals plagued the Kings’ run-chase, ultimately leading to their defeat.
