‘A remarkable start in Khi’: Rizwan on five out of five wins

Pakistan’s wicket-keeper-batter and captain of Pakistan Super League’s (PSL) franchise Multan Sultans has turned to his social media after winning five out of five matches in the Karachi leg of PSL 7. He has also thanked all team members and the management of the franchise for their contribution to the victorious start.

“Alhumdulillah 5/5. A remarkable start in Khi by @MultanSultans in @thePSLt20. Each member of this team is a match-winner. Grateful to entire management, coaching staff & owners for the trust, support and freedom to operate,” he said in a tweet.

He also promised to repeat the winning streak in Lahore as well. He added: “One game at a time, Champs!”

P.S. Our incredible fans, please keep us in your prayers. We cherish your support beyond words. You are appreciated. https://t.co/HlcCs3lF1y

While in a later tweet, Rizwan thanked his fans and requested them to remember Sultans in their prayers.

Sultans crushed Peshawar Zalmi on Saturday with a 57-run victory. Zalmi didn’t have a good beginning to the mammoth 223 run-chase.

Multan was given a solid opening start of 85 runs from Shan Masood and Rizwan, which provided a solid foundation for a huge total. Afterwards, it was Tim David’s blistering innings that stole the show.

Rizwan bagged the Player of the Match award for his prolific 82-run inning.

For Sultans, Imran Tahir and Shahnawaz Dahani were able to take three wickets, while Blessing Muzarabani and Abbas Afridi took a wicket each.
