The Gladiators could make 253 runs while chasing 263-run target.

Sultans made a recod of making the highest scores of the tournament so far as they displayed the batting of  the highest quality. Usman got things underway with a majestic 120 off 43 balls and then then Rizwan continued to find boundaries every over in clash with Gladiators.

The victory in this match is quite important for Quetta Gladiators if they wanted to reach the later stage.  Perhaps, it is the reason that Gladiators won the toss and opted to bowl first against Sultans.

Muhammad Nawaz is leading Quetta in the absence of Sarfraz Ahmed whose finger injury could not recover.

Multan Sultans: Usman Khan, Mohammad Rizwan (wk/c), Rilee Rossouw, Kieron Pollard, Tim David, Khushdil Shah, Anwar Ali, Usama Mir, Abbas Afridi, Izharulhaq Naveed, Ihsanullah
