Their top order has probably been the best so far in this tournament. Mohammad Rizwan and Shan Masood have been in full flow in this tournament so far. Their bowling attack has also been commendable with some notable names like Rumman Raees, Shahnawaz Dahani, and Imran Tahir.
Quetta Gladiators have lost back-to-back games after back-to-back wins. When their top order fails, they usually end up losing the game however, if their top order succeeds it is really hard to get past them. They have a brilliant pace attack led by the young man Naseem Shah.
Multan Sultans are in top form at the moment and it is hard to get better of them this time around.
Prediction: Multan Sultans to come out triumphant.
