Multan Sultans vs Peshawar Zalmi Predictions


Zalmi need to convert their improved consistency into a string of wins. They need to win their remaining three games to ensure they make the playoffs, so playing the flailing Sultans is a great place to start. 

  • Peshawar Zalmi’s Babar Azam scored a match-winning 53* against Islamabad United.
  • Peshawar Zalmi’s Hussain Talat has scored 37, 51* & 39 in his last 4 innings.
  • Multan Sultans’ Mohammad Rizwan has scored 32, 36, 76* & 44* in his last 5 innings.
  • Multan Sultans’ Usman Khan top-scored with 61 off 40 balls against Islamabad United.

Head-to-Head


Peshawar Zalmi have won three and lost two of their last five matches against Multan Sultans.

Multan Sultans Form


Multan Sultans slumped to their fourth defeat in a row when they lost to the Karachi Kings by 87 runs. 

The Kings got off to a flying start, which ensured they could reach 204/4 off their 20 overs. Ubaid Shah (2/49) was the pick of the Sultans bowlers. 

The Sultans crashed to 59/4 and couldn’t repair their innings. Kamran Ghulam (29) and Yasir Khan (26) were the only batters to score more than 14 as the Sultans slumped to 117 all out off 16.1 overs. 

Multan Sultans Team News


Despite boasting a star-studded side, the Sultans have had a disastrous time with bat, ball and in terms of strategy. With nothing to play for, the side might click into gear and start performing to their ability, so they are not to be written off.

Peshawar Zalmi Form


Peshawar Zalmi bounced back from a 64-run defeat to the Gladiators by beating top-of-the-table Islamabad by six wickets. 

The Zalmi attack did a superb job against the in-form Islamabad top-order, reducing them to 91/6. Islamabad ended on 143/9 off their 20 overs. Mohammad Ali (3/26, econ 6.50) led a sensational bowling display from the entire Zalmi attack. 

Peshawar Zalmi were in trouble at 38/3 before a 102-run partnership for the fourth wicket between Babar Azam (53*) and Maaz Sadaqat (55) took them to the verge of a six-wicket win off just 16.4 overs. 

Peshawar Zalmi Team News


Peshawar Zalmi have brought in England fast bowler Luke Wood to replace South African spinner George Linde, who has returned to South Africa for family reasons.

Verdict

I am backing Peshawar Zalmi to win. I am also backing Babar Azam to top score for Peshawar Zalmi.

Mohammad Rizwan is a good bet to top score for the Multan Sultans.
