Islamabad captain Shadab Khan afte the defeat: "We were 10-15 runs short. How we fought was brilliant. I just wanted them to express themselves, attitude was amazing. Pitch was bit difficult so wanted to give the chance to the proper batter (him coming down the order). Coxy was here. Wanted to give him a chance at his number. I am, but I'm still an allrounder, Coxy is playing as a batter.
"The last over which I bowled, if I went for less, could've been a different ball game. Would've been a different ball game if we took catches. We are a very strong team. Wasn't our day, still we fought till the last ball."

Multan Sultans and Islamabad United are playing their second matches of the season as they face off at the Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan on Tuesday (February 20).
Islamabad United slumped to a lopsided eight-wicket loss in a high-scoring affair at the same venue on the opening day of the PSL 2024. Islamabad United, on the other hand, defeated Peshawar Zalmi by 16 runs.
The Sultans, captained by Mohammad Rizwan, hope to carry on where they left off in their season-opening 55-run victory over Islamabad United. However, Islamabad United would be ecstatic to defeat the defending champions by an impressive eight wickets.
Multan Sultans, fresh from their convincing victory over the Islamabad United the previous weekend, will take on the assured Islamabad United team. With a wealth of experience in both the bowling and batting areas, the Sultans possess superior resources. However, Islamabad United would need to produce a similar kind of performance, which they pulled off against the current champions Lahore Qalandars.
Shadab Khan outscored the Lahore Qalandars by 74 runs off of 41 balls. In addition to the top run scorer, Salman Agha amassed 64 runs off of 31 balls. In contrast, Tymal Mills, a left-arm bowler, claimed two wickets in their previous encounter. As a result, these athletes might be crucial to Islamabad United.
