Multan Sultans vs Peshawar Zalmi: Both teams preview 

Multan Sultans

Multan’s campaign has been overwhelming so far; their top-order hasn’t quite clicked yet, and not just batters, the bowlers have also struggled to make any impact in the season so far. Despite the strong squad, the team has lost its opening games of the season. In their first game, they suffered a narrow 4-wicket defeat against Karachi Kings, and followed this defeat in the second outing against Islamabad United was more concerning, as the team conceded a mammoth 243 runs and then crumbled under scoreboard pressure, losing by 47 runs.

Peshawar Zalmi

Peshawar Zalmi have had a forgettable start to PSL 2025, suffering two crushing defeats that have severely impacted their net run rate. They lost their opening match to Quetta Gladiators by 80 runs, followed by an even heavier 102-run defeat against Islamabad United. Heading into this match, Zalmi will be desperate to regroup and find balance in both their batting and bowling departments. A win here is crucial—not just for points, but to spark momentum and build rhythm for the remainder of the season.
