Multan: Multan is poised for a surge of excitement as the Multan Sultans kick off their HBL Pakistan Super League 9 campaign on home turf.

Led by Mohammad Rizwan, the team is scheduled to welcome all HBL PSL sides at the scenic Multan Cricket Stadium from February 18 to 25.

The tournament, as officially declared by the Pakistan Cricket Board, is set to commence on February 17 in Lahore, with the Multan Sultans taking on the Karachi Kings in a night game the following day as the action shifts to Multan.

The Sultans will then host Islamabad United (February 20), Lahore Qalandars (February 21), Peshawar Zalmi (February 23), and Quetta Gladiators (February 25).

Owner and chief executive Ali Tareen said, “I am extremely delighted that the Multan Sultans will be playing all their home games in front of their fans in Multan. Whenever the Multan Sultans play at the Multan Cricket Stadium, the stadium oozes with passion and love, and the atmosphere there is second to none. That same passion, love, and enthusiasm of the people of Multan will be palpable in the week-long cricket festival in the city, and it will make for the perfect beginning for the HBL PSL 9.”

“We had back-and-forth discussions with the PCB about the possibility of playing all our home games in Multan because our fans deserve nothing less than that, and I am thankful to the decision-makers at the PCB for awarding the MCS, which is one of the most scenic stadiums in the world, all of our home games.”

“We have a brilliant record at the MCS, and I am sure that the team that we have put together will bring smiles to the faces of the thousands of Sultans.”

Multan Sultans, the most successful team in the history of the HBL PSL, enjoy a tremendous record at home, with seven wins in eight games.

After completing their home leg, the Sultans will travel to Lahore to play the Lahore Qalandars on February 27. Their last four group games are divided equally between Karachi (v KK on March 3 and v QG on March 12) and Rawalpindi (v PZ on March 5 and v IU on March 10).
