Islamabad United (IU) and the Multan Sultans (MS) are set to clash in the 7th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025. The match will be played at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on 16th April 2025 at 08:30 PM IST. Islamabad United The defending champions, Islambad United, are breathing fire this PSL 2025 season as well. They have won their back-to-back matches on the trot and are currently sitting comfortably at the top of the PSL 2025 leaderboard. They defeated Lahore Qalandars by 8 wickets in the first match and defeated Babar Azam's Peshawar Zalmi by a whopping 102 runs. In the last match, with the help of Sahibzada Farhan's blistering century (106) and Salman Agha's (30), United posted 243 for 5 in their first innings and later bowled out the Zalmi on a score of 141. Imad Wasim took three wickets, and skipper Shadab Khan took two wickets. They will aim to continue their form and retain their top spot. Multan Sultans Mohammad Rizwan's Multan Sultans were hammered by the Karachi Kings by 4 wickets in their opening match of PSL 2025. While batting first, MS posted 234 for 3 in their first innings with the help of skipper Rizwan's unbeaten century and an astounding finish by Michael Bracewell, but fortune had other plans for Multan Sultans. Karchi Kings chased down the target with the help of James Vince's fire-packed century. They would be disappointed with their loss but they will aim to bounce back and avenge their last season final defeat when they face an in-form Islamabad United in another tough assignment. Pitch Report The pitch at Rawalpindi has always favored batters in a higher context as compared to bowlers. The pitch at this ground is known for producing high-scoring matches. However, with this being an afternoon fixture, the surface is expected to dry up quicker, which could bring spinners into play more as the match progresses. The average first innings score at this ground has drastically decreased from 184 to 159.
