Match Verdict
Multan Sultans chased down 172 with comfortable margin thanks to a solid batting display from top to bottom. Josh Philippe's fluent 55 laid the foundation, and Arafat Minhas' cameo of 25 off 11 effectively ended the contest. Momin Qamar's three wickets in the first innings kept Islamabad to a manageable total, which Multan never looked troubled by.
