MULTAN, February 26: Multan Sultans on Wednesday beat Peshawar Zalmi by six wickets in the first-ever Pakistan Super League (PSL) match hosted by the city of saints.
The Sultans, who earlier restricted Zalmi to 123, emerged victorious with a score of 124-4 with 31 balls remaining. Rilee Rossouw (49 off 42) and Khushdil Shah (43 off 29) put up a strong partnership to complete the win for the Sultans.
Earlier, Zalmi managed to set a target of only 124 after losing early wickets. Though Haider Ali looked in impressive form, making 47 runs off 27 balls, he couldn’t find a steady partner in the batting lineup as wickets kept falling at the other end. -Agenices
