Date and Time: 16th February 2022; 8:00 PM IST.
Venue: Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
Pitch Report
As seen in previous games at the Gaddafi Stadium, a good batting track awaits the two sides. The pacers might not get much swing early on, with the batters likely to attack from ball one. There should be ample spin on offer for the spinners, who will be key in the middle overs. Wickets in hand will be key for both teams, with 160-170 being par at the venue. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with dew likely to play a part in the second half of the match.
Today’s MUL vs KAR Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Mohammad Rizwan: Mohammad Rizwan is one of the premier batters in the T20 format, with his numbers over the last few years being noteworthy. Although he hasn't looked his usual self in recent games, Rizwan has the game to overturn his form, making him a fine addition to your MUL vs KAR Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Babar Azam: Like Rizwan, Babar Azam is also a premier batter in this format with the Karachi Kings captain already scoring over 200 runs in this year's PSL. Although he didn't score many runs in the previous game, Babar showed intent from the word go, which could hold him in good stead ahead of this game.
All-rounder
Mohammad Nabi: Mohammad Nabi has blown hot and cold in this PSL despite boasting a heap of experience. While Nabi is expected to roll his arm over for a couple of overs, he is expected to play a big role with the bat. Given his ability to take the spinners on, Nabi should find a place in your MUL vs KAR Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Imran Tahir: Imran Tahir has been sensational for the Multan Sultans this season with 12 wickets to his name. The veteran leggie has used his experience to good effect, picking up wickets for fun in the middle overs. With the conditions also helping him, Tahir should claim a wicket or two today.
