I think, MS has made it to the playoffs. Even if they lose their last 3 games, QG & IU can’t pass them on the table. PZ theoretically can cross via better NRR, but unlikely.

It has already been announced that they have qualified the graphic shows such with a "Q" next to them.
 
Credit to Qalandars.

They've come back from the dead and made a fight of it. Would be a huge shame if they didn't qualify for the next phase from here.

IU and QG in trouble.
 
LQ at no 3 on points table, who would have thought. :smith
 
If KK and QG with their next games IU will be at the bottom. Can't say I feel sorry for them considering who their coach is :))
 
LQ, IU, QG, 3 remaining matches of KK. Where everyone wants to win against KK and wants others to lose against KK.

Quetta is as good as out.

Lahore and zalmi both just need to win to go through. Interesting last few games for the other teams but no skin off of Multan’s bones even if they lose their remaining games.
 
Advantage KK and LQ courtesy Home Games. That looks tough on IU and QG.

KK are going to be kingmakers.... they can lose to either IU and QG and this pretty much guarantees that the other one is going home. If they win against both then both go home, if LQ lose their last match to MS then they will have to hope that KK win both their matches.

If KK lose both their matches then THERE WILL BE THREE SIDES WITH NINE POINTS! Doesn't get tighter than that. Also if PZ also lose to MS then they will also have nine points. 4 sides with 9 points, DAMN.

Basically everything is in KK's hands.

This PSL is hype. It was so tiring with Lahore consistently being the last, Quetta and Peshawar consistently being good, this season either everyone has improved or the better ones have gotten worse; hard to tell what is what but still the end result is amazing.

It's sad that the final part of this will be played in empty stands but it has been amazing so far. (nazr lag gai hai kisi man-hooos ki, Allah swt reham karain bus)
 
QG are not happy with the travelling they have had to do during the tournament. They're claiming that the players are tired due to all the travelling.

Lame excuse. Quite often they were in a winnable position, only to lose key moments.
Why Fatigue didn't stop them from getting into winnable positions.

Sarfaraz's poor captaincy and form is to primarily blame for their below par showing.
 
Multan can afford to play the bench strength on Sunday. Resting the seniors like Afridi and tahir won’t be a bad idea. Nobody can surpass multan as table toppers so might as well.

IU still in within a chance as is lahore.

Reckon Multan wins based on strength
 
MS have been head and shoulders above rest of the sides. 6 wins, 1 lose and 2 drawn games is testament to their analytical data-driven style. Modern international sides also implement the same philosophy, while the rest of the PSL sides and Pakistan national side are still employing dehati mentality of "larr ke liengaye" and it is showing in the results.

Imagine Islamabad and Quetta not making the playoffs two of the strongest teams In PSL in terms of history

Karachi hasn't been that bad. They would have had same win loss ratio had their game vs MS which they were win big was not washed out.
