Multan Sultans vs Lahore Qalandars Pakistan Super League Qualifier 1 Match Predictions
Pakistan
Gaddafi Stadium
Multan Sultans had many ups and downs in the tournament but managed to qualify for the Qualifier 1 round because of their positive Net Run Rate. They are coming from a win in their previous 2 games against Peshawar Zalmi and Quetta Gladiators. They might change the fate of Lahore Qalandars by defeating for the first time this season and go straight into the finals of the League. Their only aim is to not repeat the history of the previous Pakistan Super League and win the league this time.
Lahore Qalandars had a fabulous time in the league stage of the tournament as no other team could touch them in the matter of points. However, Lahore Qalandars faced difficulties winning against Karachi Kings in both encounters they’ve had. They are coming from a loss against Karachi Kings by 86 runs margin which is a lot. With just 1 step away from the finals of the Pakistan Super League 2023, Lahore Qalandars would not want to continue with the same performance against Multan Sultans on the 15th of March 2023.
Facts
- The opener and captain of Multan Sultans, Mohammad Rizwan has the second-best average in the entire tournament. He is the best batter in the league with 483 runs in just 10 innings at an average of 60.38. He has good records against Lahore Qalandars this season and can score above 40 runs in the powerplay to give his team a solid start.
- The only batsman Multan Sultans should be worried about is Fakhar Zaman in the Qualifier 1 round. He has been the reason for Lahore Qalandars' top-level performance in the league. Having a batsman like Fakhar Zaman in the top order can be beneficial for the team as he can score some quick runs in the powerplay.
- Abbas Afridi surpassed Ihsanullah to be the top wicket-taker in the tournament by taking a fifer in the last game against Quetta Gladiators. He is the highest wicket-taker in the Pakistan Super League with 22 wickets and also the third most economical bowler in the league with an average of just 14.95. He along with Ihsanullah can be dangerous for Lahore Qalandars’ batting line-up.
- Lahore Qalandars has 3 of the top 5 bowlers in the league. Shaheen Afridi, Rashid Khan and Haris Rauf are the most deadly combo that is feared by most of the top batters in the world. We expect them to damage Multan Sultan's batting attack.
Multan Sultans vs Lahore Qalandars Chance of Winning
It's the battle between the best of the best and also the battle for the finals of the Pakistan Super League 2023. Lahore Qalandars have a completely well-balanced squad with all players contributing to the game, while Multan Sultans have top performers in the tournament be it bowling or batting. Choosing one team over other will be unfair to the other team. Their head-to-head battles state Lahore Qalandars as the winner that too with just 1 match. However, we are predicting Lahore Qalandars to win this match considering their performances in the past 2 encounters with a 65/35 chance of winning against Multan Sultans on the 15th.

While on the other hand, Multan Sultans has the best opening pair in the tournament and scores runs in every match which makes them a weak contender because once the opponent bundles their opening pair out it is an easy win for them.
