PSL 2026: Hyderabad Kingsmen vs Multan Sultans Prediction, Match Preview

Hyderabad Kingsmen will host Multan Sultans in Game 8 of the Pakistan Super League on Wednesday at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The two sides are meeting for the first time ever. Who will win?

Hyderabad Kingsmen Preview

After making it to the top flight this season, Hyderabad Kingsmen are having an experience they couldn’t have prayed for. They are facing many challenges in their inaugural season and have lost both games so far. They began the season with a 69-run loss to Lahore Qalanders before slipping to a 40-run loss to Quetta Gladiators in their second game. The Jason Gillespie-led team has struggled with the bat, and players like Saim Ayub and Usman Khan will need to step up their games to get something out of this game. At the moment, they sit bottom of the table with zero points.
