Multan Sultans is one of the consistent teams in PSL. Despite a change in personnel, MS remain committed to their tried-and-tested strategy. Opting for a conservative top-order followed by power-hitting batters, the team bids farewell to Tim David and Rilee Rossouw while retaining the steadying influence of Rizwan’s dynamic leadership, steering them to three consecutive finals.

Multan Sultans 2024 Player List
Mohammad Rizwan (c & wk), Reeza Hendricks, Dawid Malan, Tayyab Tahir, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, David Willey, Usama Mir, Abbas Afridi, Reece Topley, Faisal Akram, Yasir Khan, Usman Khan, Aftab Ibrahim, Chris Jordan, Shahnawaz Dahani, Mohammad Ali, Ihsanullah
Notable draft selections include the likes of David Willey, Reeza Hendricks, Dawid Malan, and Reece Topley, marking an intent to bolster their squad with versatile talents.
However, Multan’s revamp sees the departure of Shan Masood, who formed prolific opening partnerships with Rizwan. The responsibility now shifts to Hendricks, boasting a T20I strike-rate of 115.71 in Asia, to partner Rizwan at the top, while Dawid Malan, known for his consistency albeit with concerns over strike-rate, slots in at number three. This setup places a significant onus on Iftikhar Ahmed, a six-hitting maestro with 67 sixes in Pakistani T20s in 2023, and Khushdil Shah to serve as the team’s power-hitters.
The absence of Ihsanullah, a pivotal player with 22 wickets in the previous PSL and the tournament’s Player of the Tournament, due to an elbow injury, adds to Multan’s challenges. Coupled with a lack of prominent local fast bowlers, the team pins its hopes on the availability and fitness of Willey and Topley throughout the tournament. Alternatively, they bank on Shahnawaz Dahani rediscovering his form to bolster their bowling attack.
Multan Sultans’ unwavering strategy amidst these shifts reflects their faith in a structured approach. As they navigate these changes, they aim to sustain their competitive edge and strive for continued success under Rizwan’s leadership in the upcoming PSL season.
