PSL 2025: Islamabad Soar as Farhan, Holder Outclass Multan | Islamabad United continued their impressive run in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025, securing a 47-run victory over Multan Sultans in a high-scoring encounter at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Batting Fireworks Propel Islamabad to 202

Opting to bat first, Islamabad United got off to a flying start thanks to Sahibzada Farhan, who continued his rich vein of form. The opener played with confidence, reaching his half-century in just 30 balls (7 fours, 2 sixes) before departing. His aggressive approach set the tone for the innings.

While Andries Gous fell early, Colin Munro took charge with a blistering 48 off 25 balls, including 4 fours and 3 sixes, pushing the run rate beyond 10 per over. Despite a brief stumble in the middle overs—with Shadab Khan, Azam Khan, and Munro falling in quick succession—Haider Ali (33 off 16) and Jason Holder (32 off 14)* provided the late surge. Holder’s explosive cameo, striking at 228.57, propelled United to a formidable 202/6.

Multan’s Chase Falters After Promising Start

In response, Multan Sultans began aggressively despite losing Shai Hope (1) early. Mohammad Rizwan (38 off 27) and Usman Khan (31 off 20) kept the chase alive with a 59-run partnership, maintaining a 10+ run rate in the powerplay. However, once both set batters were dismissed, the innings crumbled.

Iftikhar Ahmed (32 off 26) tried to stabilize the innings, but the middle order collapsed under pressure. Jason Holder (4/25) was the standout bowler, dismantling Multan’s lower order with his variations. Imad Wasim (2/28) also contributed with key wickets as Multan folded for 155 in 18.4 overs, falling 47 runs short.

Key Performances & Turning Point

  • Farhan’s explosive fifty set the foundation.
  • Munro & Holder’s power-hitting ensured a strong finish.
  • Holder’s four-wicket haul broke Multan’s chase.
  • Rizwan & Usman’s start went in vain due to middle-order collapse.

Islamabad United’s all-round dominance reaffirmed their status as strong contenders in PSL 2025, while Multan Sultans will need to regroup after this heavy defeat. With clinical batting, sharp bowling, and electric fielding, United outclassed their rivals in a statement victory.

Final Score:
Islamabad United – 202/6 (20 overs)
Multan Sultans – 155 all out (18.4 overs)
Result: Islamabad United won by 47 runs.
Player of the Match: Jason Holder (32* & 4/25)

The win strengthens United’s position in the points table, while Multan will look to bounce back in their next fixture.
