Karachi: Tim David (71) and Rilee Rossouw (67) played exceptionally well to help Multan Sultans hand a 218-run target to Islamabad United in the eighth match of the Pakistan Super League's (PSL) seventh edition.

After being invited to bat first at the National Stadium, the Sultans were in a fix as Mohammad Rizwan (12) and Sohaib Maqsood (13) were dismissed under five overs.

But Shan Masood kept playing and scored 43 runs off 31 balls with the help of five fours and two sixes. His partnership with Rossouw ended in the ninth over when Marchant de Lange got his wicket.

Later, Rossouw and David punished the United's bowlers and put up impressive runs on the board. In the 19th over, Mohammad Wasim dismissed David for 71, but the damage had been done.

The last over was also good for the Sultan as Hasan Ali took a wicket but Rossouw kept the scoreboard ticking and added 21 runs to the total, with the help of three sixes.
