Karachi Kings guaranteed to finish bottom of the table after eighth straight defeat
\n LAHORE
\nMultan Sultans beat Karachi Kings by seven wickets, courtesy Mohammad Rizwan\u2019s stellar 74-run knock in match number 23 of the Pakistan Super League\u2019s (PSL) seventh edition at Lahore\u2019s Gaddafi Stadium.
\nWhile chasing 175 runs, Multan was provided a 100 run opening stand in 14.2 overs by Shan Masood and Mohammad Rizwan, but they absorbed too many dot balls as the required run-rate continued to mount.
\nRizwan who scored 76 runs off 56 balls tried to score quick runs by hitting the boundaries, but Jordan picked his wicket. Tim David also failed to score big while pressure mounted for Multan.
\nAfter that, it was Khushdil Shah who stole the limelight and showed his power-hitting skills at a crucial juncture by hitting two sixes and one four against Chris Jordan in the second last over to bring his team closer. In the last over bowled by Umaid Asif they needed nine runs and Rossuw smashed a huge six to seal the deal in 19.3 overs Mir Hamza was the best bowler for the Kings as he picked two wickets for 24 runs in four overs.
\nKarachi Kings posted 174-runs for the loss of six wickets in 20 overs with all-rounder Imad Wasim scoring playing a quick-fire 32 runs not-out knock-off just 16 balls after Kings skipper Babar Azam decided to bat first.
\nKarachi, who are going through a terrible PSL 2022 campaign having lost all the seven matches didn\u2019t have a good start in today\u2019s game either as Babar got out for just two runs to a brilliant delivery from left-arm pacer Rumman Raees.
\nQasim Akram and Rohail Nazir were removed when Karachi had scored 118 runs.
\nAfter that, Imad and Mohammad Nabi forged a crucial 48-run partnership as Nabi was got out while playing a shot against Dahani.
\nNabi scored 21 off 15 balls, while Imad scored 32 runs with the help of one six and five fours to take his team to 174.
\nWhile for Multan, Dahani picked two wickets but conceded 44 runs in four overs, while Khushdil, Tahir, Muzarabani, and Raees picked one wicket each.
\nWhile Sharjeel and Joe Clarke posted a 72 run partnership, Joe was dismissed by leggie Imran Tahir. Sharjeel also followed him soon, as he was removed by Khushdil Shah with his team\u2019s score of 84 runs on the board. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
