Topmost Picks for MUL vs KAR Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Multan Sultans

• Mohammad Rizwan- with an average of 55 in the tournament last year, the keeper-batter was pretty much unstoppable and he will be keen to get off to a flying start once again.
• Shahnawaz Dahani- the tall right-arm fast medium bowler had a very strong PSL two seasons ago and, with a T20 strike-rate of 15.3, we can expect him to be very tough to face once again.

Top Picks – Karachi Kings

• Shoaib Malik- the 42 year old has hit 82 half-centuries in T20 cricket and he is a vastly experienced player in Pakistan conditions. He has hit over 1000 fours in this format.
• Mohammad Nawaz- the all-rounder has been in fine form in international cricket and in the BPL over recent months. He is capable of making a big contribution with both bat and ball.

MUL vs KAR Probable Winners:

Karachi Kings have put together a stronger team than last year, and we expect them to be much more competitive. However, Multan Sultans were one of the top teams last year, and many pundits believed they should have won the final. We expect them to get off to a winning start on Sunday. Considering the team combination, Karachi Kings is expected to win this match.
