Lahore Qalandars Vs Multan Sultans, Match Prediction

Preview

Lahore Qalandars Vs Multan Sultans is the first qualifier in the ongoing Pakistan Super League. Multan Sultans come into this game in red-hot form. Two of their players are on the top-three run-getter list this season, and the batting is working well for them. The bowling has been just as good with Imran Tahir and Khushdil Shah in the top three.

The Lahore Qalandars are not far behind though. Fakhar Zaman is the leading run-getter this season, and the team has done well in the group stage. They may not have done as well as Sultans, who come in after winning nine games, but they still have been in decent form.
