The mishap took place while announcing the award for 'Catch of the Match' to Joshua Little.
Former Pakistan batter and commentator Ramiz Raja has grabbed the headlines after his mishap during the post-match presentation of a Pakistan Super League (PSL) match on Tuesday, April 22.
The high-scroring match played between the Multan Sultans and the Lahore Qalandars in Multan. Raja, who was hosting the post-match presentation, made a blunder while announcing the 'Catch of the Match' award.
The award was to be presented Multan Sultans' pacer Joshua Little. While making thw announcement of the same, Ramiz accidentally termed the "PSL" as the "IPL". Interestingly, he did not attempt to correct himself, which led to a barrage of memes on social media. “The catch of the match will be awarded to Josh Little to get rid of Fakhar [Zaman]. What a catch! Probably the catch of the HBL IPL,” Ramiz said during the post-match presentation.

Sultans open their account after hat-trick of defeats
Meanwhile, it has been a terrible start for last season’s runners-up as the Sultans lost their first three games by huge margins. They opened their campaing with a four-wicket loss against Karachi Kings and followed that up with two massive defeats against Islamabad United (47 runs) and Peshawar Zalmi (120 runs). Mohammad Rizwan and co. finally opened their account with a 33-run win against Lahore Qalandars.
Opener Yasir Khan and 19-year-old pacer Ubaid Shah were the stars for Sultans as the former was adjudged the Player of the Match for his brilliant 87 off 44 while the latter took the big wickets of Fakhar, Daryl Mitchell and Sam Billings to ensure his team successfully defended 228 in the end.
