MI New YorkSeattle OrcasMI New York kicked off their MLC season with a loss against San Francisco Unicorns but immediately bounced back and scored a win in the second fixture. With two wins and two losses in four games, MI New York has shown inconsistency in the tournament. They are coming to play their fifth fixture after scoring a comfortable win over Washington Freedom in their previous fixture. Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard, and Rashid Khan are the key players in the team.
All the eyes will be on Trent Boult as he is the teamβs leading wicket-taker and Boult will be expected to give major troubles to the opposition.
Predicted Lineup: Timothy David, Kieron Pollard, David Wiese, Nicholas Pooran, Nosthush Kenjige, Hammad Azam, Ehsan Adil, Monank Patel, Trent Boult, Rashid Khan, Shayan Jahangir
Seattle Orcas are the leading giants of the tournament and they have shown positive signs since the first match. However, after three consecutive wins, Seattle Orcas witnessed a defeat in their previous game against LA Knight Riders. The whole team will be in shock after facing a defeat against the weakest team in the tournament. Quinton de Kock, Heinrich Klaasen, and Wayne Parnell are the key players for the team.
The team will be motivated to bounce back after their loss in the last fixture and will use the same combination of players.
Predicted Lineup: Wayne Parnell, Imad Wasim, Quinton de Kock, Dasun Shanaka, Cameron Gannon, Andrew Tye, Harmeet Singh, Shehan Jayasuriya, Shubham Ranjane, Heinrich Klaasen, Nauman Anwar
MI New York have good depth in their batting but the opening lineup has shown inconsistency in scoring runs. Seattle Orcas have been consistent in their performance as the team has a good balance. We predict a win for Seattle Orcas on Wednesday against MI New York.
