QG vs MS Live Updates - Quetta Gladiators Opt to Bowl First Against MS – PSL 2025 Match 18 Toss Update

Saud Shakeel wins the toss and chooses to field as Multan Sultans make three changes to their XI in a must-win contest.
The stage is set at the Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, for a thrilling PSL 2025 clash. Quetta Gladiators captain Saud Shakeel has won the toss and decided to bowl first, banking on their in-form bowling attack to restrict the struggling Sultans.
Multan have rung in the changes, bringing in Curtis Campher, David Willey, and Usama Mir-a bold call in this crucial fixture. Out go Shai Hope, Josh Little, and Akif Javed, as they look to balance their side with more all-round options.

Weather & Pitch Report
Cricket under the Lahore lights is a treat, and tonight's conditions promise a full game with no weather interruptions. It will be a warm evening, with temperatures cooling from a high of 40°C to around 32°C at match time. The Gaddafi Stadium's pitch has shown itself to be a high-scoring surface this season-balanced, but rewarding aggressive play. An average first innings score of 158 suggests that teams need to push beyond 180 to feel secure.
Though there's no firm bias for batting or bowling first, teams like Multan and Quetta-struggling for consistency-might prefer the psychological edge of putting runs on the board.
Quetta Gladiators: Momentum with the Ball
Quetta's last outing saw them post 178 while losing seven wickets-without a single half-century scorer, underlining the depth and collective grit of their batting order. Finn Allen's explosive 16-ball 31 set the tone at the top, while middle-order cameos from Rilee Rossouw and Mark Chapman ensured a competitive total.
However, it's the bowlers who've grabbed the spotlight. Mohammad Amir continues to lead the attack with distinction, with young Mohammad Wasim Jr. proving an ideal partner in the pace battery. Spinner Abrar Ahmed provides control in the middle overs, and their ability to take wickets at crucial junctures has become a defining feature of their recent surge.
Quetta Gladiators Predicted XI:
Saud Shakeel (c), Finn Allen, Rilee Rossouw, Mark Chapman, Faheem Ashraf, Hasan Nawaz, Mohammad Wasim, Mohammad Amir, Khurram Shahzad, Abrar Ahmed
Multan Sultans: Running Out of Time
The Sultans' problems have been both with the bat and the ball. Though Rizwan remains a constant performer at the top, the middle-order has largely failed to capitalise on good starts. Their best recent effort came in a losing cause, when Rizwan and Kamran Ghulam stitched together a 115-run partnership to lift the side to 185. "It was a good effort but we need to back it up with consistency. Our season depends on this," said Ghulam after the game.
Frequent chopping and changing has also unsettled their bowling unit. The likes of Josh Little and Mohammad Hasnain have struggled for rhythm, and the team's inability to defend totals-particularly at this venue-is a major red flag.
Multan Sultans Predicted XI:
Yasir Khan, Muhammad Rizwan (c & wk), Usman Khan, Michael Bracewell, Shai Hope, Akif Javed, Kamran Ghulam, Mohammad Hasnain, Usama Mir, Josh Little, Ubaid Shah
Key Battles
- Rizwan vs Amir: Powerplay pressure at its best.
- Finn Allen vs Hasnain: Speed vs explosiveness.
- Middle-order grit: Ghulam and Chapman could tilt the game either way.
