Islamabad United and Multan Sultans square off in Tuesday night’s fifth match of the Pakistan Super League 2024 at the Multan Cricket Stadium. With victories over the Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars over the weekend, both teams got off to winning beginnings. On Monday, February 19, the match begins in Multan at 19:00 local time.
After defeating the formidable Karachi Kings over the weekend, the Multan Sultans will now have a difficult task against the assured Islamabad United squad on Tuesday. Nevertheless, we anticipate another victory for the Sultans because they have a strong batting and bowling lineup.
Islamabad United defeated Lahore Qalandars, the reigning PSL Champions, in the opening match of the season to get off to a great start. If they want to defeat the Multan Sultans, they will have to perform at a comparable caliber with the bat and the ball.
Multan Sultans were able to choose a formidable team for their first match because they had no injured players and only a few were playing in other competitions. The victory on Sunday left no word on injuries, and we anticipate playing the same lineup on Tuesday.
The highest scorer from the previous year’s competition, Mohammad Rizwan, the captain and keeper-batter, got the tournament started with 11 runs in Match 3. He will be eager to score heavily in this match. The right-handed number three hitter Reeza Hendricks defeated the Karachi Kings with an undefeated innings that featured seven fours and three sixes, earning him the Player of the Match Award.
In the game on Sunday, the 31-year-old right-arm medium-fast bowler Mohammed Ali got rid of Hasan Ali, Mir Hamza, and Daniel Sams. We may anticipate David Willey, the left-arm medium-fast bowler, to swing the new ball in this game after taking early wickets in the previous game.

Mohammad Rizwan (c & wk), Dawid Malan, Yasir Khan, Khushdil Shah, Usama Mir, David Willey, Abbas Afridi, Iftikhar Ahmed, Mohammad Ali, Reeza Hendricks, Shahnawaz Dahani
Islamabad United deployed six bowlers on Saturday, with Ubaid Shah the only one to return pricey figures. Nonetheless, we anticipate that the 18-year-old will be selected again in this PSL 2024 encounter as the team administration continues to exhibit faith in him. During the post-match interviews versus Lahore Qalandars, no injuries were disclosed.
After hitting 11 boundaries in his perfect innings and claiming a wicket with the ball, skipper Shadab Khan was named the Player of the Match. The former England opener Alex Hales, who smashed five fours and one six in the tournament’s opening match, will be crucial to the team’s early success at bat in this contest.
Abdullah Shafique was dismissed by England T20 specialist bowler Tymal Mills with a slower delivery against Lahore Qalandars, showcasing his versatility and talent. In the first game, Naseem Shah, a youthful right-arm fast bowler, delivered figures of 1/36, taking David Wiese wicket among other highlights. It appeared as though he had fully recovered.
