Cricket Free Tips | PSL 2021, Qualifier: Islamabad United vs Multan Sultans

 

Pakistan Super League 2021 Qualifier will pit Islamabad United against the Multan Sultans. United has gone undefeated in their last five games. Despite missing important players, they defeated Multan Sultans by four wickets in the previous league match. With 16 points, they came out on top of the table.

Meanwhile, Islamabad United broke Multan Sultans’ four-match winning streak in the last league group encounter. They looked like they wouldn’t make it to the playoffs at one time, but they turned the tables in the second leg of the competition and finished second with 10 points.

 

Weather

The players will have to contend with a hot and probably energy-sapping evening, as the temperature is expected to be 39 degrees Celsius when the Qualifier begins.

This is unlikely to change significantly as the game goes. The humidity will range from 44~49%, while the wind speed will be between 15~18 km/h.

 

Pitch

It’s an excellent T20 pitch that’s generated some close matches in recent days. In this venue, chasing appears to be difficult. Thus whoever wins the toss should bat first.
