KARACHI: Multan Sultans captain Muhammad Rizwan and Karachi Kings captain Babar Azam has divided Pakistani Twitter into two teams on grounds of clash between the two franchises in Pakistan Super League (PSL) opening match.
Babar and Rizwan shined in 2021 and added several feathers to their caps by breaking records as batting partners and as individual batters with remarkable performance during the year.
However, the two will now face each other as Babar is leading 2020 champions Karachi Kings while Rizwan will lead defenders Multan Sultans.
Sharing a picture of Babar and Rizwan with their scorecards, @grassrootscric wrote on Twitter: “#PSL7 is here, and the #1 and #2 ranked T20I batsmen will go toe-to-toe as the hosts take on the defending champions!”

Karachi Kings successfully chased down Multan’s total of 195 when the two teams met in Karachi last season, before the Sultans beat them in the UAE leg.#KKvMS pic.twitter.com/jwurc8x5XN

Some of the fans have are also confused whether they should support the ICC Men’s ODI Cricketer of the Year (Babar) or ICC Men’s T20 Cricketer of the Year (Rizwan).
So hard to choose a favorite between #KKvMS with Babar Azam on one side and Muhammad Rizwan on the other. That’s the beauty of #PSL7. world top two T20 players leading their teams against each other today ❤️PSL7 pic.twitter.com/0fz0Tz2BWy
