Quetta Gladiators vs Multan Sultans Preview – Betting Tips, Latest Odds, Team News and Predictions – 11/03/2020
Pakistan Super League pacesetters Multan Sultans will be looking to stay at the top of the table with victory over Quetta.
They have enjoyed an impressive campaign so far and will want to maintain that momentum as the tournament hots up. Sultans head into this match on the back of a nine-wicket win against Islamabad United.
Quetta will want to return to winning ways following defeat against Lahore Qalandars last time out. Despite sitting bottom of the PSL they will still have hopes of a play-off place.
It was Multan who took the points when these two met in the reverse fixture last month. Sultans picked up a 30-run success after a fine ton from Rilee Rossouw.

Quetta Gladiators vs Multan Sultans – Team News
League leaders Multan are unlikely to make too many changes to their line-up for this one given their recent form. The main decision they will have to make will be in the order. Skipper Shan Masood or Moeen Ali could slot in at three.
Quetta have also stuck to a familiar line-up this season but have failed to find the consistency that should bring. It’s likely that Jason Roy and Shane Watson will be the men to open for the Gladiators once more.

This looks like another win for Multan as long as the expected rain showers don’t curtail their progress. They again look the team to side with when seeking the outright winner.
However, their short price isn’t appealing for betting purposes so seeking value in other markets is the way to go.
Magic Moeen to be man of the match
Moeen Ali’s all-round abilities could very well come into play in this one. He looked in the mood for runs when hitting a quickfire 14 not out in five balls against Islamabad and can do similar here should the game be reduced by poor weather.
The Gaddafi pitch helps spin and he could prove key in restricting Quetta. His ability with both bat and ball on this surface means he could be an interesting bet for the man of the match award. He is priced at 9.00 (8/1) with bet365 to land that honour.
Rossouw to hurt the Gladiators again
Rilee Rossouw hit a fabulous century against Quetta when the teams last met and he could be the man to make the difference once more.
This is his first appearance since that knock and he’ll surely be relishing the chance to get after the Quetta bowlers again.
His price of 4.50 (7/2) looks too generous to be Multan’s top batsman. His late power hitting could also be vital to Sultans chances should Quetta strike early.
Best Bet: Moeen Ali to be man of the match at 9.00 (8/1) with bet365
