Multan Sultans won the toss and elected to field first in a match that was reduced to 9 overs per side due to wet outfield.

1st Innings

Batting first, Islamabad United started off really well. As expected, Luke Ronchi and Colin Munro got going straight away. The openers along with Shadab Khan all got to double figures to set the platform for the lower order to go hard in the death overs.

The middle and lower order, however, lost control of the innings as Multan pulled back the game in their favor by regularly picking up wickets.

Islamabad United posted 91/7 in their allotted 9 overs, setting a target of 92 for the visitors.

2nd Innings

James Vince and Zeeshan Ashraf looked in the mood to finish off the match in only a few overs. James Vince smacked 21 off the second over to set the platform for Multan’s win.

In the end, it was a one-sided affair as James Vince scored a quick-fire fifty to strengthen his team’s position at the top of the points table. He did it in just 20 balls.

Sultans romped to victory with 9 wickets in hand.
