MI New York will face San Francisco Unicorns in the 16th match of Major League Cricket (MLC) 2024. The highly anticipated game will take place at Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.
MI New York
MI New York, currently standing in fifth place, will aim to gather momentum for a push towards the top of the table. Their opponents, the San Francisco Unicorns, come into the match with two wins and one loss. MI New York have struggled in the current season with just one victory from five games, making qualifying for the playoffs challenging. The team’s batting heavily relies on Nicholas Pooran, who has been the standout performer. Rashid Khan has also been crucial for them. The bowling has seen Trent Boult and Kieron Pollard‘s contributions, but the team’s overall performance needs improvement to turn down the season.
San Francisco Unicorns
On the other hand, the San Francisco Unicorns have made significant progress this season, but they still need to secure consistent victories to build confidence for a successful playoff run. Mathew Short leads their batting lineup and has been excellent so far with the bat. The bowling relies on Liam Plunkett and Haris Rauf’s impressive performances.
