Multan Sultans vs Karachi Kings Prediction
Karachi Kings have assembled a stronger side for this campaign than last year and we are expecting them to be much more competitive. However Multan Sultans were one of the top sides last year and many pundits thought they should have won the final. We are backing them to get off to a winning start on Sunday.
Probable Best Batter of the match
Mohammad Rizwan
The Multan Sultans skipper Mohammad Rizwan has terrific numbers in the Pakistan Super League. He is one of the most consistent performers in the team and would hope to keep up with it in the upcoming season. Keeping the T20 World Cup in mind, Rizwan would also hope to better his strike rate in the competition.
Probable Best Bowler of the match
Abbas Afridi
With 23 wickets to his name, Abbas Afridi finished as the leading wicket-taker of PSL 2023. Courtesy of the same, he cracked into the national squad but has yet to cement his spot in the playing XI. He would eye PSL 2024 to achieve that target.
