 Peshawar Zalmi Clash with In-Form Multan Sultans in Match 9 Showdown

The excitement continues as Peshawar Zalmi face the red-hot Multan Sultans in Match 9 of PSL 2025. With both teams eyeing top spots in the points table, expect a nail-biting contest under the lights at Gaddafi Stadium.

 Peshawar Zalmi – Young Stars & Big Firepower

Led by Babar Azam, Peshawar Zalmi combines young talent with seasoned performers. Saim Ayub, Tom Kohler-Cadmore, and Mohammad Haris bring aggression at the top, while their bowling attack – featuring Wahab Riaz and Salman Irshad – provides wicket-taking options throughout the innings.

Multan Sultans – Balanced, Brutal & Brilliant

The Sultans have been clinical this season. Under Mohammad Rizwan's steady leadership, the team continues to dominate with the bat and ball. Key contributors include Rilee Rossouw, David Willey, and Ihsanullah, making them one of the most feared units in PSL 2025.

Key Players to Watch

• Babar Azam – Zalmi’s captain and Pakistan’s run machine.

• Mohammad Rizwan – The reliable anchor and captain for Multan.

• Rilee Rossouw – A T20 destroyer in the middle order.

• Saim Ayub – Youngster with explosive potential.

Pitch & Match Prediction

Lahore’s pitch favors batting, but spinners may get assistance in the second innings. A score above 180 could be competitive. Multan Sultans look more settled, but Peshawar’s unpredictability and Babar's brilliance could tilt the game in their favor.
