Detailed Report
Wicketkeeper‑batter Usman Khan smashed the second‑fastest Pakistan Super League (PSL) century by a Pakistani, reaching 100 in 44 balls against Multan Sultans at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore.
The Hyderabad Kingsmen batter previously registered a 36‑ball century against Quetta Gladiators in 2023, which remains the fastest hundred by a Pakistani batter in PSL history.
The hard‑hitting batter became the first batter to score four centuries in PSL history, registering his fourth hundred to surpass Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Kamran Akmal and Rilee Rossouw.
Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, Kamran Akmal and Rilee Rossouw each have three centuries, jointly holding second place behind Usman Khan’s record‑setting tally of four PSL hundreds.
Hyderabad Kingsmen chased 214 against Multan Sultans, winning by four wickets with three balls remaining, powered by Usman Khan’s record‑breaking century and Hassan Khan’s late cameo.
Usman scored 101 off 47 balls with 10 sixes and five fours, sharing a 123‑run stand with captain Marnus Labuschagne, who contributed 61 off 41.
Peter Siddle dismissed Labuschagne and Usman in the 16th and 18th overs, but Hassan Khan’s 24 off 12 balls sealed Kingsmen’s dramatic victory.
Earlier, Multan Sultans posted 213‑7, led by Steven Smith’s 106 off 50 balls and Sahibzada Farhan’s 66, with both openers adding a 132‑run partnership.
Glenn Maxwell dismissed Farhan, while Hassan Khan removed Smith, before Kingsmen bowlers restricted Sultans with four wickets in the final overs to limit their acceleration.
Akif Javed claimed three wickets for Kingsmen, while Ali, Maxwell, Hassan and Hunain Shah picked one each, ensuring Sultans’ momentum stalled after their strong opening stand.
