Mohammad Rizwan plays for Multan Sultan in the ninth season of the Pakistan Super League (PSL). The best T20 batsman of all time is also leading the team. As usual, he is spreading light with the bat this season. The way Rizwan is batting in this franchise-based T20 league, it seems that beating the bowlers is straightforward. However, the wicketkeeper-batsman also plays a vital role in the team’s victory.
Rizwan started his journey with a half-century in this edition of PSL. He played an inning of 75 runs from 50 balls against Lahore Qalandars. Multan’s captain batted a bit slower in the next match. Against Quetta Gladiators, he faced unbeaten innings of 28 runs off 34 balls. He batted responsibly to win the team.
Rizwan became more irresistible in the next three matches. This wicketkeeper-batsman played an inning of 66 runs against Peshawar Zalmi. He also scored a half-century against Islamabad United in the next game. Finally, after back-to-back half-centuries, Karachi got the century they wanted against the Kings. Rizwan scored an unbeaten 110 off 64 balls.
Rizwan is very excited to perform brilliantly with the bat. But beyond personal success, he wants to contribute to the team. Multan’s captain said in the press conference, “The batting is going well and entering the field with confidence. All is going according to plan, getting runs consistently, and not overthinking personal performance. We play for the team. “
Meanwhile, riding on the bat of Rizwan, his team is progressing well. Multan is the runner-up team in the last season of PSL. Even in the final, Rizwan could not lift the title. This time, they might want to win the elusive title of the last time. Rizwan started the tournament with that plan. But only time will tell how far you can go in the end. But in the rhythm Rizwan is in, he is the team’s trump card.
