How Faisal Akram Broke Rawalpindiz in Five Overs
Rawalpindiz started with intent. Kamran Ghulam and Abdullah Fazal built a decent platform in the powerplay, posting 52 runs for 2 wickets. At that point a score around 190 looked possible.
Then Faisal Akram walked in.
The left-arm wrist-spinner turned the match completely. Between overs 8 and 12, Rawalpindiz scored only 28 runs and lost three key wickets. His variations deceived batters who had no answer for his change of pace.
The wicket of Daryl Mitchell was particularly sharp, a topspinner that beat him completely before he read the line. That five-over stretch is where Rawalpindiz lost the game.
Dian Forrester hit three sixes off Mohammad Nawaz to show some fight, but he had no real support at the other end.
Sam Billings held the innings together from the back end. He read the situation well, farmed the strike in the death overs, and punished Mohammad Wasim and Peter Siddle to score 43 runs in the final four overs.
His unbeaten 56 off 34 balls gave Rawalpindiz something to defend. On a flat pitch with no assistance for bowlers, 182 was always going to feel short.
Farhan and Philippe Put on a Masterclass in the Multan Sultans vs Rawalpindiz Chase
Rawalpindiz needed a fast start from Mohammad Amir. He delivered one, trapping Steve Smith in his first over. For a moment, Rawalpindiz believed.
That belief lasted about two overs.
Sahibzada Farhan took one look at the field and decided to take charge. He reached his fifty off just 27 balls and then did something that completely deflated Rawalpindiz’s confidence. He hit back-to-back sixes off Mohammad Amir in his second over, a moment that told everyone the game was done.
Multan Sultans finished the powerplay at 58 for 1. That was the match.
Philippe was just as brutal. He walloped Mohammad Amir Khan for 16 in the eighth over. Together, he and Farhan hit four sixes off Rishad Hossain in a single over that made the asking rate fall to barely a run a ball before the halfway point.
Farhan went for 68 off 38 and Philippe for 56 off 27. Both dismissed after putting the game to bed. Shan Masood and Ashton Turner finished the job without any drama. Multan Sultans got home in the 17th over.
Rawalpindiz Squad:
Mohammad Rizwan, Yasir Khan, Kamran Ghulam, Abdullah Fazal, Daryl Mitchell, Sam Billings, Dian Forrester, Rishad Hossain, Asif Afridi, Mohammad Amir Khan, Mohammad Amir.
Mulatan Sultans Squad:
Sahibzada Farhan, Steven Smith, Josh Philippe, Shan Masood, Ashton Turner, Mohammad Nawaz, Arafat Minhas, Peter Siddle, Mohammad Wasim, Muhammad Ismail, Faisal Akram.
Why Rawalpindiz Keep Losing in PSL 2026
Four matches. Zero wins. This is no longer a rough patch, it is a pattern.
The biggest problem is bowling depth. Without Naseem Shah, Rawalpindiz lack the pace and threat to dry up runs or create pressure in powerplays.
Mohammad Amir is dangerous in short bursts but easy to target once set batters find their rhythm. The rest of the attack is too thin to defend any total consistently.
Their batting is inconsistent in a different way. Contributions come in isolation. No one player carries the innings from start to finish.
Billings fought hard in this game but he batted at the back end, not from a position of strength.
Mohammad Rizwan is a world-class captain but he is working with a squad that has clear holes right now. Until Rawalpindiz find some consistency in both departments, their PSL 2026 campaign looks in serious trouble.
PSL 2026 Points Table Update
Multan Sultans sit at the top of the table after this win, strengthening their position as early favourites. Rawalpindiz remain at the bottom without a single point from four games. The window for recovery is narrowing fast. Every match from here is effectively a must-win situation for the Pindiz camp.
