Playing for Multan Sultans in Pakistan Super League (PSL 11), Steve Smith played an extraordinary innings in the match against Hyderabad, which left the entire stadium stunned. Smith, who is often called a Test specialist, completed his century in just 47 balls, which is one of the best innings of his T20 career. In this match, he, along with Sahibzada Farhan, made an opening partnership of 133 runs in 75 balls, which completely destroyed the bowling attack of Hyderabad. The batting of these two pushed Multan towards a strong total right from the beginning. Smith played shots in every corner of the field and proved that he is the king of every format.

Steve Smith and Sahibzada Farhan: Opening Partnership

The excitement of the match was no less than a dream for Multan Sultans. When Steve Smith and Sahibzada Farhan came out to bat, the excitement in the stadium was worth seeing.

Together, the two formed such a partnership that the Hyderabad bowlers forgot the line and length. On one hand, Sahibzada Farhan was playing in his natural attacking style, while on the other hand, Steve Smith, who is called a "Test Specialist", was looking like the real king of T20 today. The opening partnership of 133 runs in just 75 balls between the two took Multan Sultans towards a good total. Farhan gave Smith ample support and gave him the opportunity to play freely by rotating the strike.

Steve Smith completed his century in just 47 balls, where instead of the old Smith, a new and dangerous "T20 Version" was seen in his innings. He took full advantage of the power play and hit boundaries all around the ground, and then hit long sixes using the pads on the Hyderabad spinners. Smith took advantage of the speed of the fast bowlers and played unbelievable shots and played an incredible innings of 106 runs in just 50 balls with the help of 6 sixes and 12 fours. When he reached his 100 with a strike rate of 212, the entire Multan Stadium reverberated with chants of "Smith, Smith!"

The Hyderabad team, known for its bowling, looked completely speechless today. The pair of Smith and Farhan didn't give them a chance to settle down. Smith showed that if you have technique, you can destroy any bowling attack. His batting helped Multan Sultans post a fortnight-like total that became an impossible target for Hyderabad.

Batting first, Multan Sultans posted a formidable total of 213 runs thanks to Steve Smith's century, but Hyderabad Kingsmen surprised everyone by chasing this difficult target in the last over. Despite this defeat, Multan Sultans' opening pair looked quite aggressive, and the team is still in second (2nd) position in the table with 12 points after winning 6 out of 9 matches. This loss did not make any major difference to their position, but before the playoffs, Multan will have to correct the mistakes they made in this high-scoring match so that they can perform better in the upcoming important matches.
