Major League Cricket 2023 comprises six teams, including Texas Super Kings, Los Angeles Knight Riders, MI New York, Seattle Orcas, Washington Freedom, and San Fransisco Unicorns. The tournament will run from July 14 to July 31 at two venues.
Faf Du Plessis will lead another franchise of Super Kings after leading Jo'burg Super Kings in SA20. Texas Super Kings have also signed Devon Conway and Mitchell Santner, who were part of the IPL 2023 winning squad of Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Dwayne Bravo will be seen on the field after being the bowling coach of CSK. Even they have signed pacer Gerald Coetzee who was part of Jo'burg Super Kings in SA20, and the inclusion of Australian All-Rounder Daniel Sams, who was in sublime form in Vitality T20 Blast 2023, has boosted their team. So, Texas Super Kings are playing with some familiar faces from their other franchises.
Talking about Los Angeles Knight Riders, they also went behind their familiar faces: Sunil Narine, who will lead the team, and all-rounder Andre Russell in MLC. These guys have been carrying KKR's legacy in IPL, CPL, ILT20, and now in MLC. England's opener, Jason Roy, will be a key player to watch. Even the inclusion of Martin Guptill and middle-order batter Rilee Rossouw has boosted their team's morale. So, both teams will be looking to kick-start their campaign with a win.
