With an eye on the semis, Multan Sultans will challenge the Islamabad United in the 24th match of the Pakistan Super League that will take place at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Team Preview: Islamabad United

After their previous win against Quetta Gladiators, the United side booked their semi-final berth as they are currently at second position with five wins from seven games having 10 points to their name.

They have consistently won matches as they have lost only against Multan and Lahore, previously.

Led by ever-so-wily Shadab Khan, the side has got Azam Khan and Colin Munro as their prime weapons with the bat as they would expect them to score the bulk of the runs while expecting others to chip in with some useful contributions.

Tom Curran and Hasan Ali would be commanding the team as they lead with the ball and would be hoping to pick wickets early on in the innings.
