With the momentum on their side, Multan Sultans will be looking to make the most of it and win the PSL 2024 final. They have qualified for the PSL final for the fourth time in a row and can become only the third team after Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars to win the PSL twice. They won their maiden title in 2021 before losing the final against the Qalandars in 2022 and 2023.

Ahead of the final, Multan Sultans’ was boycotted by the media in Karachi after reportedly misbehaving with the media personnel.

Islamabad United eye historic triumph:

While Multan Sultans will be desperate to make amends for their losses in the last two finals of the PSL, Islamabad United will be hoping that the trend continues and they win the game to become the first-ever team to win the tournament thrice.

Islamabad United won the inaugural edition of the PSL in 2016 before winning it again in 2018. They could not make it to the final since then before qualifying for the title decider this year. Having not lost a PSL final so far, Islamabad United will be looking to extend their winning run and clinch a historic third PSL title.
