Pakistan Super League (PSL) action saw an exciting victory for Islamabad over Multan. Doull was commentating as the victorious clubhouse celebrated a resounding victory.

It is fantastic; really impressive. Plus, we won.”
A video of the analysis is widely shared online.
Early on, Doull had questioned Babar’s strategy of slowing down his run-scoring as he neared the century mark.
“For a while now, individual goals have been prioritized over team goals. If you’re not trying to find limits, there’s a lot more ammunition to come. Numbers in the hundreds are impressive, and statistics are fascinating, but the team always comes first “After the game, Doull made the following statement.
Islamabad United beat Multan Sultans by 2 runs in their encounter, which was decided on the penultimate ball of the game. Shadab Khan captained the winning team.
