MUL vs PES Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and Pitch Report for PSL 2022, Match 16
The 16th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2022 has Multan Sultans (MUL) taking on Peshawar Zalmi (PES) at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Thursday.
The Multan Sultans have been unstoppable in PSL 2022 with five wins in as many games. Led by Mohammad Rizwan, the Sultans have put in complete performances, with their batting unit impressing the most. As for their opponents Peshawar Zalmi, they have blown hot and cold this season, winning only two of their five games so far. But the inclusion of Liam Livingstone for the Lahore leg should give Peshawar some much-needed boost in their bid to seal a top-four spot. With two valuable points up for grabs, an entertaining game beckons in Lahore.

Match Details
MUL vs PES, PSL 2022, Match 16
Date and Time: 10th February 2022; 8:00 PM IST.
Venue: Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
Pitch Report
A competitive track is expected at the Gaddafi Stadium with something in it for both the batters and bowlers. The pacers should ideally get the new ball to move around, keeping the batters on their toes. But they should feel at ease after spending some time in the middle, with dew also playing into their hands. The ball should skid on under the lights with the spinners likely to get some turn off the surface in the middle overs. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with 160-170 being a good total at the venue.
Today’s MUL vs PES Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Mohammad Rizwan: Mohammad Rizwan was one of the top performers in the Karachi leg with over 200 runs to his name. He was able to hold one end up as the likes of Tim David and Shan Masood scored runs at a rapid rate at the other. Given his current form, Rizwan is a handy addition to have in your MUL vs PES Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Haider Ali: Although Haider Ali has shown glimpses of his explosive batting ability, he doesn't have the numbers to justify his big reputation in PSL 2022 so far. Expected to bat No.4 given Liam Livingstone's return to the side, Haider will be key in the middle overs against the spinners, making him one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Liam Livingstone: Liam Livingstone is finally back for Peshawar Zalmi after opting to skip the Karachi leg. The destructive Englishman is likely to bat in the top order and also provide a spin-bowling option alongside Usman Qadir. With the pitch also helping his skill-set, Livingstone should be a must-have in your MUL vs PES Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Shahnawaz Dahani: Shahnawaz Dahani was brilliant in the reverse fixture, picking up three wickets, including that of Haider Ali. His ability to generate awkward bounce and high pace should serve him well on a slightly sluggish Lahore pitch. He should be a good pick in your MUL vs PES Dream11 fantasy team.
