 Info: 

• Mohammad Rizwan has scored four half-centuries in the 2024 PSL and we are backing him to be Multan Sultans’ highest run scorer against Islamabad United. Usama Mir has taken five more wickets in the tournament than any other player and the spinner is our pick for Multan Sultans’ top wicket taker in this game.
• With scores of 34 and 56 in both Eliminators, we have Martin Guptill as our tip for Islamabad United’s highest run scorer in the final. Naseem Shah has taken five wickets across the play-offs and he is a strong choice for Islamabad United’s top wicket taker on Monday.
• With a strike-rate of 11.43 across this campaign, we recommend backing Usama Mir to take over 1.5 wickets in this final.

 Live Streaming: 

TV Channels: The 2024 PSL will be shown on Sky Cricket.

Live Streaming: The fixture will be live-streamed on FanCode and SkyGo.

 Weather & Pitch Report: 

 Weather: ⛅

Although there will be some cloud around at the start of the game, it will give way to clear skies on Monday night. The temperature will drop from 28 to 24 degrees across the match. 

 Pitch: 🏟️

Three of the last four innings have seen scores of 174+ at this venue and we expect to see a hard pitch with plenty of bounce and pace. Whoever bats first will be targeting 190-195.

Toss Prediction: 

With two of the three knockout games won by the team chasing, we predict that both captains will decide to field first if they win the toss ahead of this final.

 Team NEWS: 

 MUL Team News: 

Ahead of their Qualifier against Peshawar Zalmi, Multan Sultans brought Khushdil Shah in for Tayyab Tahir but Shah was very expensive so we expect Tahir to return for this final. With four full days rest ahead of this match, no other changes are predicted ahead of the game.

 ISL Team News: 

Although the games have been coming thick and fast for Islamabad United during the play-off stage, with no injuries in the squad we are expecting to see captain Shadab Khan announce an unchanged side once more at the toss on Monday in Karachi!.

 🏆 Winning Chances: 

This PSL has been another brilliant exhibition of cricket in Pakistan and these two teams fully deserve to contest the final on Monday evening. Islamabad United looked unlikely to get this far only ten days ago but a late burst of top form means they are now only one win away from lifting the trophy. However, Multan Sultans have been the leading side for nearly the entire competition with strong batting and bowling. We are backing them to win this final.
