The Multan Sultans bowlers upheld their skipper Mohammad Rizwan’s scintillating ton by holding off an insurgent Karachi Kings’ response in the run-chase.

In a final-over see-saw tussle, it were the Sultans who sneaked away with a three-run win, as they continue to maintain their table-topping run this PSL 2023 season.

Rizwan hammers maiden PSL ton in blockbuster knock

Multan Sultans skipper and senior opening batter Mohammad Rizwan unleashed his magnum opus PSL innings, clubbing Karachi Kings all across Multan Stadium with 110 brutal punches. The cricketer consumed 64 unbeaten deliveries in all, and dispatched 10 of them for elegant boundaries and six of them for effortless sixes.

His partner Shan Masood also listed a rapid 51, one which took just 33 balls to process. Following Masood’s dismissal, Rizwan formed a 109-run second-wicket stand with Rilee Rossouw, who contributed just 29 in the partnership. The Sultans eventually notched up 196-2 off their 20 overs, and took apart every single one of the Karachi Kings bowler put to use.

Sultans survive Vince scare, retains top spot with big win

Karachi Kings’ English import James Vince launched his side’s response with a blazing 34-ball 75 at the top. The opener dispatched six sixes and seven boundaries in his innings, which came to an end through a mix-up with partner Haider Ali in the middle.

Captain Imad Wasim kept the chase alive following Vince’s dismissal with a barrage of sixes in the death overs. The left-hander clubbed five sixes in all, including four off the final two overs when the Kings were left to fetch another 40 runs for a win.

The Sultans bowlers ultimately had the last laugh as they kept the Kings three runs within their total to script a thrilling win in front of a packed Multan Stadium.
