Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchise Multan Sultans have pledged to donate 1 lakh Pakistani Rupees for every six hit and wicket taken by the team in the ongoing season to the Palestine Children Relief Fund.

"We [Multan Sultans] have decided that in this season, we will support charity [foundations] in Palestine," Ali Khan Tareen, the franchise owner, said in a video message.

"We have decided, on behalf of our batters, that whenever any player from Multan Sultans hits a six, we will donate Rs100,000 to Palestinian charities. Our bowlers also wanted to be a part of this, so we have decided that we will donate Rs100,000 to Palestinian charities, especially those working for children, on every wicket."

Tareen further said, "Our attention is on strong performances on the field, but we are equally committed to standing in solidarity with children in need. This is a small step in a large effort, and we are proud to start it here," he said.

The Mohammad Rizwan-led side began their campaign this season with a four-wicket defeat to Karachi Kings on Saturday. In the first match, Multan raised Rs 15 lakh for the cause.
