Prediction: Karachi Kings vs Multan Sultan, Pakistan Super League 2022- Who Will Win the Match Between KAR – MUL, Match 01, Pakistan Super League 2022 On Thursday, January 27th, Karachi Kings will face Multan Sultans at the National Stadium in Karachi in the first match of the PSL 2022. The Multan Sultans struggled throughout the opening half of the PSL 2021.
However, they made a tremendous comeback in the second half of the tournament. Multan Sultans not only made the playoffs but also won the Pakistan Super League. Mohammad Rizwan and Team. are preparing to defend their title in the upcoming season.
Shan Masood, Sohaib Maqbool, and M Rizwan are still in charge of the war for power. Last year, the team’s offensive output was impressive as a result of their contributions. Khushdil Shah and Rilee Rossouw are two people in the midst of the pecking order.
Tim David and David Willey of the Multan Sultans have been called up to boost the team’s depth. It’s not impossible that one of them will play a key role in the championship round. Willey has the potential to be offensive, and he should be treated as such. Power plays and death overs are two circumstances in which he thrives.
Multan Sultans have one of the best fast bowling teams in the league, and that is not an exaggeration. Shahnawaz Dahani, this year’s leading wicket-taker, and Zimbabwe’s Blessing Muzarabani are among their ranks. Imran Tahir, a spinner, is their best hope.
Karachi Kings, on the other hand, made it to the playoffs and faced Peshawar Zalmi in the Eliminator 1 encounter. Babar Azam has stripped Imad Wasim of his duties as team captain. For him, Sharjeel Khan would bat first. It will be up to them both to get things moving rapidly at the top of the priority list once more.
Among the franchise’s many all-rounders are M Nabi, Tom Abell, and Lewis Gregory. The trio should be able to maintain the squad in good form with the bat and the ball. Joe Clarke has had a fantastic year. Throughout the competition, he’ll be a player to keep an eye on.
Their bowling, on the other hand, is a little lacking. If the Kings are to finish in the top four, Mohammad Amir must have a fantastic season. Among the players that will assist him are M Imran and Lewis Gregory. Chris Jordan has also been engaged by the Karachi Kings, who is anticipated to help them overcome their current challenges. The Englishman, on the other hand, would wait until far later in the competition to make his debut.
