Multan Sultans have made a crucial mid-season change to their squad in the ongoing PSL 2025 after confirming the departure of their West Indian spinner Gudakesh Motie. The franchise revealed that Motie has returned to Guyana due to personal reasons, forcing the team into a quick reshuffle. In his place, Irish all-rounder Curtis Campher has been signed for the remainder of the tournament.
Motie’s absence is a setback for Multan Sultans, especially given their current position at the bottom of the PSL 2025 standings. Although the left-arm spinner had yet to feature in any of the games this season, he was expected to play a key role on spin-friendly pitches as the competition progressed. His unavailability adds to the challenges faced by the team, who have also lost key player Johnson Charles earlier in the tournament.
The addition of Curtis Campher brings a new dimension to the squad. At 26 years old, Campher is a seasoned T20 campaigner with 96 matches under his belt. Known for his dynamic performances for Ireland, including his remarkable feat of taking four wickets in four balls at the T20 World Cup, Campher offers both batting strength and medium-pace bowling options. His versatility could prove vital for a team desperately looking to revive their campaign.
Multan Sultans, historically one of the most consistent sides in the Pakistan Super League, are struggling this season and will be hoping that Campher’s arrival can inject fresh energy and results. The franchise will be relying on his all-round capabilities to fill the gap left by Motie and help steer the team away from the bottom of the table. Whether Campher can provide the spark Multan needs remains to be seen as the PSL 2025 season unfolds.
