PESHAWAR ZALMI vs MULTAN SULTANS: Peshawar Zalmi and Multan Sultans will face each other on Tuesday (23rd February) night at National Stadium (Karachi) during the fifth match of the PSL 2021. It will be their second game of this PSL season.

We are at the fag end of the tournament and each game from here is a going to be huge in the context of the playoffs. While Multan Sultans have qualified and are sitting comfortably at the top of the table, all the other five teams still have a chance of making it to the top four. Peshawar Zalmi are among the top ones to make it to the playoffs.

However, they need to win their last league encounter against a rampaging Multan Sultans line-up. Multan Sultans last lost a game back on February 22. 

Meanwhile, Peshawar Zalmi have been very inconsistent throughout this season. They’ve won and lost alternately on multiple instances. In their last four games, they’ve won two and lost two. Despite the batsmen getting big scores at times, the bowling has failed to defend the score like the last game where they failed to defend 187.

Pitch Report:

Corona Virus has become the talk of the town and the National Stadium in Karachi will have empty stands. However, it has produced some excellent pitches for batsmen. They’ve enjoyed the conditions and have got big scores. The average score batting first has been 150 in this tournament at the National Stadium in Karachi. Weather-wise, it seems all clear and there is no rain around to threaten the game. The temperatures should range between 21 and 24 degrees.

Playing 11 of both Teams (Probable):

Peshawar Zalmi:

Kamran Akmal (wk), Tom Banton, Haider Ali, Shoaib Malik, Liam Livingstone, Lewis Gregory, Carlos Brathwaite, Wahab Riaz (c), Hasan Ali, Yasir Shah, Rahat Ali
