LQ vs MS Team Previews
Lahore Qalandars
Lahore have not won one match this PSL season. They have collected five defeats in a row. From here, they are in for a challenging time in trying to qualify for the next stage of the tournament. Let's preview where they have gone wrong and how they might get things right from here on in.
Sahibzada Farhan and Rassie van der Dussen have emerged as Lahore's leading run-scorers in this year's PSL. But they have lacked enough support around them and quickly need more of it going forward. Van der Dussen hit a century against Peshawar Zalmi recently, while Farhan has already collected three half-tons this tournament.
Shaheen Afridi and Zaman Khan have shared 13 wickets for the Qalandars in the 2024 PSL. Shah has led from the front with seven wickets. The pressures of being a bowling captain are perhaps tolling on Afridi, but time will tell whether he can ride this out with success.
Lahore Qalandars Playing 11
Fakhar Zaman, Sahibzada Farhan, Rassie van der Dussen, Kamran Ghulam, Sikandar Raza, George Linde, Carlos Brathwaite, Jahandad Khan, Shaheen Afridi, Salman Fayyaz, Zaman Khan.
Multan Sultans
The Sultans started their campaign with three wins in a row before suffering their first loss of the season against Zalmi, but have since moved back on track with another win - this time over the Quetta Gladiators. Multan are showing fans and critics alike why they are genuine title contenders again.
Reeza Hendricks and Dawid Malan are among the Sultans' top run-scorers this season. Hendricks has amassed 246 runs in five innings. This is his first stint in the PSL - and what a great debut season he is having. Captain Mohammad Rizwan has been solid with 187 runs in five innings.
Mohammad Ali has raced to 13 wickets in five matches for Multan this year. To average almost three wickets per match, in this format, is prolific. Ali has decent support from David Willey's eight wickets - and Usama Amir and Abbas Afridi's seven each.
Multan Sultans Playing 11
Mohammad Rizwan, Usman Khan, Reeza Hendricks, Tayyab Tahir, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, Usama Mir, Aftab Ibrahim, Faisal Akram, Mohammad Ali, Shahnawaz Dahani.
LQ vs MS Toss Prediction
It's highly likely the team to win the toss this time will elect to bowl first.
That's exactly what has happened in the previous three PSL matches at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, which is the venue for this match.

Pitch and Conditions
The last three first-innings totals in the PSL at this ground have been 138, 175 and 154. This isn't necessarily a high-scoring ground, but a first-innings score of about 160-plus can be considered competitive.
It's well worth playing two specialist slow bowlers on this pitch. No rain is forecast in Lahore on matchday.
LQ vs MS Betting Tips
The Sultans have plenty of momentum and Lahore have almost none. Multan's batting and bowling resources have greater depth, too.

Bet on Lahore to win the toss at their homeground. They will likely elect to field first.
