PSL 2020: Multan Sultans preview, schedule and IPL 2020 stars playing for them

Multan Sultans are the newest team in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). Led by Shahid Afridi, they are yet to perform to their full potential. They were added to the league in 2018 after PCB decided to expand the competition from five teams to six teams. Multan Sultans (like Lahore Qalandars) have struggled to perform in the competition. They have finished second from bottom in both the campaigns. In 2018, they were one place above the bottom thanks to points difference. In 2019, the net run rate stopped them from finishing last in the standings.
