The Islamabad United team is leading this group and is placed in second position in the points table overall, thanks mainly to a better net run rate. They have played nine games so far, won four, and lost four. One of the games ended with no result. Islamabad played its last match against Karachi Kings on 7th March. Kings batted first in this game to score 150 runs while losing seven wickets from their quota of twenty overs.

Islamabad chased this modest target down easily in 18.4 overs. They did lose five wickets in the process, though. For his all-round performance, Faheem Ashraf was awarded the Player of the Match. The leading run-getter for Islamabad United in the last eleven games has been Shadab Khan. The likes of Agha Salman and Colin Munro have supported him.

IU vs MS Toss Prediction

Even though the records hint otherwise, it might be a good idea for the skipper that wins the toss and bat first here. The track will assist the spinners, especially in the latter half of the game. 

Pitch and Conditions

This venue is well-known for being a balanced wicket. It will cater to both batters and spinners throughout the game. The faster bowlers will get help in the initial overs, but this also means the ball is coming onto the bat nicely. The track will slow down as the game progresses, and spinners will come into the picture later.

We are likely to get bright and sunny conditions during this game. The temperature will be a pleasant 22 degrees or close to that.  The relative humidity will be lower, with expected dry conditions. There is no likelihood of getting any showers during the game.

IU vs MS Betting Tips

If you look at the points table, you will find that Multan Sultans have done well in the competition. However, remember that they are going into this game after a rare defeat in their last encounter against Peshawar Zalmi. Islamabad United is going into this game with a win in their previous contest against Karachi Kings. However, a sporadic defeat is unlikely to deter the Multan Sultans too much.

You can bet on Multan Sultans to win this encounter.
