injury
update,
key
players
in
PSL
2023

Multan
Sultans
are
deservingly
top
of
the
table
with
their
winning
combination
sorted
as
their
batting
and
bowling
line-up
figured
out
under
skipper
Mohammad
Rizwan.
However,
the
team
lost
another
pacer
in
Joshua
Little
with
a
hamstring
injury
after
Shahnawaz
Dahani
was
also
ruled
out
of
PSL
2023.
The
franchise
is
yet
to
announce
a
replacement.

Rizwan-Masood:
Best
opening
combination
in
PSL

Mohammad
Rizwan
and
Shan
Masood
combined
to
have
another
big
stand
after
the
duo
added
100
runs
in
the
first
game.
Masood,
who
struggled
to
be
among
runs
after
scoring
35
in
PSL
2023
opener,
shot
his
first
half-century
(53)
of
the
season.

Rizwan,
on
the
other
hand,
has
been
scoring
runs
at
will
and
shot
his
first
century
of
PSL
2023
after
hitting
three
half-centuries
in
the
last
four
innings.
He
sits
at
the
top
of
the
top-run
scoring
chart
with
329
runs.

No.

Rilee
Rossouw
continues
to
provide
further
stability
as
he
scored
21-ball
29
to
assist
a
free-flowing
Rizwan.
Rossouw
remains
to
be
season’s
second-highest
scorer
with
218
runs
in
four
innings.

The
superb
form
of
the
Multan
top-order
has
not
allowed
many
opportunities
for
the
likes
of
Kieron
Pollard
and
David
Miller.
Pollard
scored
just
got
to
play
two
deliveries
in
the
last
game
but
did
score
a
21-ball
32
in
the
innings
before
and
has
been
striking
at
168.29

Miller
has
played
three
innings
as
well
and
has
scored
100
runs
in
three
innings
at
a
strike
rate
of
169.49

Multans
Sultans
have
top-three
bowlers
in
PSL

Among
bowlers,
Multan
Sultans
have
the
top
two
wicket-takers
as
well
with
Afghan
pacer
Ihsanullah
with
12
wickets
(5
games)
while
Abbas
Afridi
(10)
and
Usama
Mir
(9)
hold
the
second
and
third
places
right
below
him.

However,
the
last
game
was
a
disappointing
show
as
far
as
their
bowling
was
concerned
with
only
Ihsanullah
(0/17)
keeping
batters
in
check.
Abbas
took
two
wickets
but
went
for
55
runs
while
Usama
Mir
gave
away
35
runs
for
a
wicket.

Other
bowlers,
Mohammad
Ilyas
gave
away
38
runs
in
three
overs
while
Carlos
Brathwaite
proved
too
costly
in
his
one
over
by
going
for
19
runs.
Khusdil
Shah,
however,
put
in
a
good
shift
with
a
spell
of
1/25
in
four
overs.

Karachi
Kings
injury
update,
key
players

There’s
no
update
on
Mohammad
Amir’s
return
from
injury
after
the
pacer
hurt
his
groin
after
defeating
Lahore
Qalandars.

Kings
pin
hopes
on
opener
James
Vince

Karachi
lost
their
fourth
game
in
five
matches
already
but
James
Vince’s
form
top
of
the
order
gives
them
the
confidence
of
turning
things
around.
The
Englishman
is
the
side’s
overseas
top-scorer
with
147
runs
after
he
fired
75
against
Sultans.
Vince
earlier
scored
42
against
Lahore
as
well
as
he
is
striking
at
the
rate
of
168.97
this
PSL.

Veteran
batter
Shoaib
Malik,
who
is
Karachi’s
second-highest
run-getter
at
164
runs,
has
lost
his
form
off
late
with
two
back-to-back
sub-standard
knocks
of
10
and
13.
He
did
return
to
bowling
in
the
last
game
and
proved
effective
with
a
spell
of
1/29
in
four
overs
when
others
went
for
runs.

Haider
Ali
continued
to
cut
a
sorry
figure
with
another
dismal
knock
of
12
runs
off
17
balls
after
scoring
18
and
a
duck
in
the
previous
innings.

This
forces
Karachi’s
batting
to
rely
deep
on
skipper
Imad
Wasim,
who
is
also
the
team’s
highest
run-getter
with
166
runs
at
a
strike
rate
of
172.92
in
five
innings.

Imad
is
also
the
franchise’s
joint-highest
wicket-taker
with
five
dismissals
while
tied
with
Aamer
Yamin,
who
picked
as
many
in
just
three
games.
The
last
game
was
a
batting
paradise
as
Yamin
and
Imad
(20
runs
in
2
overs)
both
went
for
56
runs
in
five
overs
combined.

All-rounder
Ben
Cutting,
who
took
three
wickets
in
two
matches
earlier,
wasn’t
used
as
a
bowler
and
was
ineffective
with
the
bat
too;
scoring
just
12.

Akif
Javed,
who
bowled
a
stunning
spell
of
4/28
after
coming
into
the
side
as
a
replacement
for
Hamza
Mir,
went
for
36
runs
in
three
overs.
Imran
Tahir
went
wicketless
again
while
giving
away
33
runs
in
four
overs.

Young
pacer
Mohammad
Umar
was
handed
a
spot
in
place
of
the
injured
Mohammad
Amir
but
he
could
do
little
to
make
an
impact
as
he
went
for
44
runs
for
a
wicket
in
return.

pitch
report
KAR
vs
MUL

The
National
Stadium
in
Karachi
is
not
exactly
the
batting
paradise
it
used
to
be
as
teams
with
better
bowling
units
have
managed
to
find
worth
out
of
the
pitch.
Batting
first,
anything
above
180
is
a
tough
ask
as
spinners
are
finding
worth
while
pacers
with
variation
and
strict
line
and
length
have
been
effective.
