Multan Sultans, a prominent franchise in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), has taken a heartwarming step this season by launching a charitable campaign to support Palestinians. As part of this initiative, the team has pledged to donate Rs 100,000 (approximately $356) to Palestinian relief efforts for every six hit and every wicket taken by their players throughout the tournament.
The PSL, Pakistan’s premier T20 league, enjoys massive popularity and viewership across the country. With millions of passionate fans tuning in, the league not only serves as a platform to spotlight rising cricket stars but also proves to be an influential medium for promoting meaningful social causes. The announcement was made by Multan Sultans’ skipper, Mohammad Rizwan, during the toss ahead of their fixture against Karachi Kings. Renowned for both his cricketing prowess and his strong moral values, Rizwan delivered the news with grace and composure, earning admiration from fans and fellow players alike. This campaign reflects the team’s commitment to using their platform to make a positive impact beyond the cricket field, reinforcing the message of solidarity and compassion in a time of global need.
I have an announcement to make on behalf of Multan Sultans. With each six, four, or wicket from our players, we will be doing something to help the kids in Palestine and Gaza," Rizwan said at toss.
"We [Multan Sultans] have decided that in this [Pakistan Super League] season, we will support charity [foundations] in Palestine. We have decided, on behalf of our batters, that whenever any player from Multan Sultans hits a six, we will donate Rs 100,000 to Palestinian charities," announced franchise owner Ali Khan Tareen also confirmed it via video message.

Multan Sultans have a very talented team this season. Major players such as Mohammad Rizwan, Iftikhar Ahmed, Usama Mir, David Willey, Michael Bracewell, Chris Jordan, and Mohammad Hasnain are all included in the team. With all these good players, the team should be able to hit a lot of sixes and grab a lot of wickets, which might result in lots of money being donated to a charity.
Here is the complete Multan Sultans team for PSL 10:
The news was welcomed on social media. People tweeted using hashtags such as #SultansForPalestine and #CricketForHumanity to express their appreciation. The fans commented that this is a fine example of how sports can be utilized to do some good in the world.
The Pakistan Super League is one of the largest cricket tournaments in the nation. It is filled with millions of spectators and viewers. Now, with this initiative, it is also becoming a method of contributing to those who are in need. Multan Sultans proved that cricket isn't all about winning games. It's also about demonstrating heart. Each six and each wicket now has two meanings: one for the team and another for the kids in Palestine who will receive the support they require.
