James Vince: James Vince will bat in the top order and has been performing well consistently this year. Vince will enjoy batting in Karachi and can score big. He will be a fine captaincy option for this game.
Mohammad Rizwan: Mohammad Rizwan is the most popular captaincy option for this game. Rizwan will open the innings and has a tremendous record against Karachi Kings. Further, the track will assist him. Rizwan is known to play big innings, and another formidable score can not be ruled out.
Reeza Hendricks: Reeza Hendricks is another popular captaincy option. Hendricks will open the innings and has been performing well in this edition of PSL. He played a terrific knock against Karachi Kings last time and can extend his good run on a flat batting surface.
Shan Masood: Despite being a skilled batter, Shan Masood’s selection % currently stands at 33.66 as of now. His recent form is a massive reason. However, Masood can break free and flourish at a venue he knows quite well. He is also familiar with the opponent’s bowlers since he used to feature for Multan Sultans till the last season. Expect Masood to make an impact.
Shahnawaz Dahani: Shahnawaz Dahani has been selected by 4% of users as of now. Dahani will bowl in all the phases, increasing his probability of taking wickets. Further, he has done well in Karachi previously and knows the conditions well. Dahani can snare a few wickets and fetch match-winning points.
Irfan Khan: There are multiple reasons to avoid Irfan Khan in this game. Irfan will bat significantly low and can’t contribute much unless the Karachi Kings lose wickets in tandem. Further, he doesn’t bowl, either. It looks futile to select him in the fantasy teams.
If KAR bat first:
Complete the team with three among Tayyab Tahir, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, Mohammad Nawaz, Mir Hamza, Zahid Mahmood, and Tabraiz Shamsi.
If MUL bat first:
Complete the team with three among Leus du Plooy, Usman Khan, Reeza Hendricks, Hasan Ali, Mohammad Ali, and Faisal Akram.
If KAR bat first:
Complete the team with three among Tim Seifert, Iftikhar Ahmed, Mohammad Nawaz, Tabraiz Shamsi, and Abbas Afridi.
If MUL bat first:
Complete the team with three among Usman Khan, James Vince, Leus du Plooy, and Shahnawaz Dahani.
Both teams have quality players and will form an exciting contest. Multan Sultans have been more consistent and are the table toppers. While Karachi Kings will have the home advantage, Multan Sultans are more balanced as a unit. Expect the Sultans to win the game.
