Multan Sultans Team News & Playing 11
MS Team News
Adam Lyth, Joe Denly and Brendan Taylor have linked up with the squad in the enforced changes. Of those, only Lyth started last time out and the key selection decision will be whether to stick with their top order after they fell to 40/4 last time out.
MS Key Players
- Sohail Tanvir: Brilliant with the ball last time out as he claimed 3-25 from his four overs. He was unfortunate to be on the losing streak.
- Imran Tahir: The veteran leg-spinner continued where he left off, taking wickets and bowling economically wherever he plays.
- Shan Masood: The captain scored just three last time out, but if he can get in the runs up the order the Sultans will be back on track.
MS Team Form
Multan Sultans topped the league table of PSL 2020, but did sign off with defeat to Lahore Qalandars. They were inconsistent in the latter half of the tournament with two wins in their last five games, and they lost in the qualifier play-off too. They scored 141/7 against Karachi, but the Kings hit 141/8 in reply and won on the super over.
Multan Sultans Predicted Playing 11
Zeeshan Ashraf (wk), Adam Lyth, Shan Masood (c), Rilee Rossouw, Ravi Bopara, Khushdil Shah, Shahid Afridi, Sohail Tanvir, Mohammad Ilyas, Imran Tahir, Mohammad Irfan
Lahore Qalandars Team News & Playing 11
LHQ Team News
Lahore are likely to stick with the team that beat Peshawar Zalmi in the last round. Haris Rauf and David Wiese were expensive with the ball, but they each took two wickets and the team – with Tamim Iqbal in for unavailable Chris Lynn – seems well balanced.

- Ben Dunk: In fine form during the group stage, he hit a more patient 20 last time out to hold an end in a key partnership with Hafeez.
- Shaheen Afridi: Led the bowling last time out to follow up his 13 wickets in the group stage. He was excellent at the top of the bowling order with 2-19.
- Mohammad Hafeez: Showed he is still in fine form, hammering 74* from 46 in what proved to be a match-winning innings last time out.
LHQ Team Form
Lahore beat Multan Sultans to reach the play-offs, with Chris Lynn smashing an unbeaten century in that game. Lahore followed that up by beating Peshawar Zalmi in the eliminator play-off too. Mohammad Hafeez’s 74* from 46 balls made the difference in a five-wicket win.
