DUBAI: Table-toppers Multan Sultans go up against Quetta Gladiators at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium tonight. 

A 19-run victory over Peshawar Zalmi last night consolidated Multan's top spot on the points table, powered by Sohaib Maqsood's knock of 85 not out off 42 balls. 

Multan have won 4 out of their 6 matches so far, with one loss and one washout. Earlier this tournament, the Shoaib Malik-led team outclassed Quetta Gladiators by 9 wickets. 

Quetta, on the other hand, are lacking the spark which they carried with them last season. They have lost 3 and won 2 matches out of 5 matches, and sit at fifth position.
