It's a tough situation for the Multan Sultans as they've been knocked out of the tournament, having suffered 8 defeats. In their last match against Peshawar Zalmi is now a dead rubber. In that encounter, the Sultans were bundled out for a meager 108 runs in 19.1 overs. Shai Hope top-scored with 23 runs, followed by Tayyab Tahir with 22, and Mohammad Rizwan, who got a start with 17 runs but couldn't convert it into a substantial innings.
The Sultans' batting has been their Achilles' heel this season. Despite boasting quality international players, they've struggled to capitalize and post competitive totals. Mohammad Rizwan has been a lone warrior with the bat, accumulating 363 runs in 9 matches at an impressive average of 61.
On the bowling front, Ubaid Shah leads the wicket-taking charts with 11 scalps. However, the rest of the bowling attack has lacked the consistency and penetration needed throughout the season. In this final game, the Sultans will be playing for pride, aiming to finish their campaign on a winning note.

The Quetta Gladiators have had a remarkable campaign thus far, establishing themselves as a formidable force with 6 wins. They will be aiming to conclude the league stage at the top of the table, as the Kings are breathing down their necks, also sitting on 12 points. A victory in their match would secure the top spot for the Gladiators.
In their previous encounter, the Gladiators locked horns with Islamabad United and, batting first, posted a mammoth total of 263/3. Rilee Rossouw smashed a blistering 104 runs off just 46 deliveries, while Hasan Nawaz remained unbeaten on a magnificent 100 runs from 45 balls. Subsequently, the Gladiators' bowlers dismantled Islamabad United for a mere 154 runs in 19.3 overs. Mohammad Amir spearheaded the bowling attack, bagging an impressive 3 wickets for just 6 runs.
Hasan Nawaz is currently the leading run-scorer for the Quetta Gladiators with 250 runs. With the ball, the enigmatic Abrar Ahmed has been their trump card, picking up 14 wickets and leading the wicket-taking chart for the Gladiators.
Rilee Rossouw has also been in scintillating form, accumulating 234 runs this season. The bowling unit has been a cohesive force, with Faheem Ashraf (13 wickets), Mohammad Amir (10 wickets), and Khurram Shahzad (11 wickets) all contributing significantly, making it a challenging prospect for opposition teams this season.

Average TurnThe pitch at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium heavily favors the batters, making it a high-scoring venue. The average first innings score across the 8 matches played this season is a substantial 219 runs. Notably, scores exceeding 200 have been achieved 8 times when batting first this season. In stark contrast, only once a team has scored over 160 runs while chasing this season.
Teams batting first have dominated at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium this season, winning 7 out of the 8 matches played. Chasing has proven challenging at this venue, as the pitch tends to slow down slightly, making it difficult for batters to time their shots effectively. Therefore, we anticipate that the team winning the toss will opt to bat first.
Quetta Gladiators are coming into this game as the clear favorites. They've been on a roll, not losing their last five matches. On the other hand, Multan Sultans have been struggling and have lost a lot of recent games. When you look at both teams, Quetta has a really strong bowling attack, which makes them a big threat to win.
We are backing the Quetta Gladiators to Win this match and end the league stages as table toppers.
