Islamabad United:
Luke Ronchi (WK), Colin Munro, Dawid Malan, Rizwan Hussain, Phil Salt, Asif Ali, Shadab Khan (C), Rumman Raees, Faheem Ashraf, Akif Javed, Muhammad Musa

Players to Lookout For

Islamabad United:
Dawid Malan has been a heavy scorer in PSL and he proved it yet again in his last outing for United. He will be the key once again.

Multan Sultans:
Shan Masood has a lot to prove when it comes to T20 cricket. He has been scoring heavily in First-Class and List A games, however, he will be hoping to make a name for himself as an all-format player.
