Multan Sultans vs Islamabad United PSL 2022 Match 29 Match Prediction - Who will win today’s match between MS vs ISU?

The defending champions Multan Sultans are going head-to-head against Islamabad United in match 29 of the Pakistan Super League to be played at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore. The Sultans are riding high winning their last game in towering fashion and further consolidating their position at the top of the table.

However, it has been a mixed bag so far this season for the United. The team has played a very aggressive brand of cricket with the top order firing in almost all of the games they played during the Karachi leg. However, ever since they lost the in-form Paul Stirling to international commitments and have had the other performing opener in Alex Hales leave the tournament citing bubble fatigue, they have struggled to make an impact.

Though the team should still be comfortable with their position on the table, they would be without their star all-rounder and Captain, Shadab Khan going into this encounter.

The surface in Lahore has played true so far in the tournament. The pitch has appeared pristine with the ball coming onto the bat nicely.

MS vs ISU Head to Head

Overall- 10 Multan Sultans-5 Islamabad United- 5

Probable top performers:

Probable best batter of the match:

Tim David

Tim David has been in supreme form so far in the tournament. The middle-order batter has been exquisite in his power hitting. Having not got the opportunity to bat much in Multan Sultans’ last game, David would be itching to go out and score big this game. The right-hander is riding high on confidence and would be looking forward to facing a depleted bowling attack of the United.

Probable best bowler of the match:

Faheem Ashraf

In the absence of their in-form wicket-taking spinner, Shadab Khan, Faheem seems to be the best bowler for the United. Ashraf has been amongst the wickets in their previous matches and is expected to lead the attack for his team yet again. The right-arm medium pace bowler has enough variety to trouble the batters.

Today’s match prediction: Multan Sultan’s to win the match.
