Peshawar Zalmi vs Multan Sultans Preview

From here on, Multan will play to secure one of the top two spots, so they will have two shots to make it to the finals. However, Peshawar must play the remaining games as knockout games and achieve a top-four finish in the playoffs. Peshawar will fancy their chances against Multan on Tuesday evening as they are the only team who defeated them.

Babar Azam (330 runs in 5 matches) is the highest run-scorer with the highest score of 111 runs off 63 balls and plays a sheet anchor role. Aamer Jamal played an outstanding knock of 87 off 49 balls in a lost cause against Islamabad. Rovman Powell has been brilliant with his quick-scoring cameos later down the order.

Arif Yaqoob is the highest wicket-taker for Peshawar with eight wickets in three games. The leg-spinner has a unique skill of bowling in death overs as most of his wickets came in those. Luke Wood has continued, his norm of picking at least a wicket in every game. He will be looking to maintain that record in this match. Though Saim Ayub hasn't been consistent with his bat still he's been playing a vital role as a bowler in the powerplay.

For Multan Sultans, Reeza Hendricks (299 runs in 7 matches) and Mohammad Rizwan (245 runs in 7 matches) are the highest run scorers for Multan. Both have been the backbone of the batting lineup for the Sultans as they are standing at No. 3 and 4 among the top five batters list. Usman Khan has played back-to-back brilliant knocks of 96 and 106.

Usama Mir (15 wickets in 7 matches) and Mohammad Ali (14 wickets in 7 matches) are the highest wicket-takers and the top two bowlers among the top five bowlers. David Willey has been consistent throughout the tournament with his performance by taking nine wickets in six games.
