MS vs LQ Match Analysis
Multan Sultans are set to face Lahore Qalandars in the 12th match of the Pakistan Super League 2025 on April 22, 2025. The game will begin at 09:00 PM BST and will take place at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan. The Multan Sultans are still seeking their first tournament victory after falling behind in their first three games.
After batting first against the Quetta Gladiators and Karachi Kings, LQ have looked incredibly powerful with massive wins since losing to Islamabad United in their opening match. Lahore Qalandars will be enjoying this head-to-head matchup, but MS, who won both of their meetings last year, could use a win by any means this time!
MS vs LQ Team Preview & Squads
Multan Sultans
Despite having some well-known international players in their squad, Multan Sultans have been underperforming this season for whatever reason. As usual, one would anticipate that the Sultans will start with a solid first wicket partnership thanks to their top two of captain Muhammad Rizwan and keeper-batter Shai Hope. Usman Khan is also a very good T20 batter, while the middle order of David Willey, Iftikhar Ahmed, Ashton Turner, and Michael Bracewell is skilled and experienced.
Bracewell can land the ball in the same spot, while Willey has the variations to cause problems for the Lahore batters. After taking two wickets in the last game, Ubaid Shah will also be very important.

Lahore Qalandars
Any team that secures a 65-run win in a T20 match in Karachi clearly boasts a powerful batting unit—and that’s exactly the case for Lahore Qalandars heading into this fixture. Their recent dominant performance over the Karachi Kings was spearheaded by Fakhar Zaman at the top and New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell, who came in at number four—both players notching up impressive scores of 75+.
With additional firepower from batters like Abdullah Shafique and Sikandar Raza, the Qalandars have depth and consistency throughout their batting order. On the bowling side, Shaheen Shah Afridi once again showed why he’s a game-changer in white-ball formats. He struck early in the previous match, removing both David Warner and James Vince—two of the most prolific top-order batters of the past decade—in the very first over, boosting his confidence even further.
Haris Rauf typically takes over as the first-change bowler, known for his ability to keep things tight, while Sikandar Raza is expected to pose the greatest threat in terms of taking wickets.

Both sides have excellent lineups for batting, and Lahore prefers to use their pacers in the second half of matches. Both clubs will therefore prefer to bat first, according to our prediction. Multan will have a clear evening with temperatures that are expected to stay between 32 and 28 degrees.
We anticipate an especially good batting track because this will be the first game of the 2025 Pakistan Super League at the Multan Cricket Stadium, which has produced many outstanding batting performances throughout the years. The first batsman will aim for a score of at least 225.
