Reeza Hendricks was the standout performer with the bat, scoring 51 runs off 44 deliveries, while Jason Roy also made a valuable contribution with 39 runs. In the bowling department, Multan bowlers did not put up a good performance as only Hasan Ali and Moeen Ali took a wicket each, while the rest of the bowlers remained wicketless and ineffective.

On the other hand, Multan Sultans also didn't perform well in the previous game as they lost by 24 runs against Peshawar Zalmi. Peshawar came to bat first, scoring 196 runs; in response, Multan Sultans managed to score only 172. Multan got a good start from the top order as Steve Smith batted brilliantly for them, scoring 31 runs, while Shan Masood played an innings of 35 runs.
