THE LOWDOWN
MI NEW YORK
MI New York have two matches to secure qualification for the play-offs of Major League Cricket and the likelihood is that they’ll need to win both, starting here against Washington Freedom. You could argue that they have struggled when taking into account the quality of players within their squad and as we reach the business end of the tournament, these players need to stand up for the team. Their last game ended in disappointment as they fell to a 17-run loss against rivals Texas Super Kings, failing to chase down 155.
WASHINGTON FREEDOM
Washington Freedom have shown their versatility over the course of the tournament so far, winning matches when both defending and chasing a score, which bodes well for them moving forward. Matthew Short continues to lay down a platform for them at the top of the order, whilst captain Moises Henriques has also stood out for his side in recent games, most notably taking three wickets in an eventual victory over Los Angeles Knight Riders. After a slow start, they have really settled into the swing of the competition well.
THE PREDICTION
Whilst MI New York don’t have the record Washington Freedom does when it comes to overall wins so far across the tournament, you simply cannot write them off with the world class cricketers at their disposal. A bowling attack that includes Rashid Khan, Trent Boult and Kagiso Rabada are bound to come good at some stage as a collective and it may well be here that they run through a batting order, specifically Washington Freedom’s. Add in their six hitters down the order with their tournament hopes hanging in the balance and MI New York are worth backing to just do enough to get the better of Washington.
BETTING TIP: MI NEW YORK TO WIN
