The Mohammad Rizwan-led Sultans started their title defence with a facile seven-wicket win against Babar Azam's Karachi Kings on day of the league. The skipper, who was named the ICC T20I Cricketer of the Year for 2021, remained unbeaten on 52 off 47 balls as they chased down Kings' 124/5 in 18.2 overs at the same venue. But the star of the match was veteran South Africa spinner Imran Tahir, who took three wickets for 16 runs.
