The curtain-raiser of Major League Cricket (MLC) 2025 will feature San Francisco Unicorns (SF) locking horns with Washington Freedom (WAS) at Oakland Coliseum on June 13, 2025. This 2024 MLC final rematch in favor of Washington Freedom prepares to present an intense battle as the San Francisco Unicorns look for revenge. With Corey Anderson as captain, the San Francisco Unicorns are up against a Glenn Maxwell-led Washington Freedom in an action-packed opener.
This matchup should be an exciting battle, as both teams are two strong MLC teams. San Francisco's batting, led by Corey Anderson and Finn Allen, will challenge Washington's bowling attack, led by Marco Jansen and Lockie Ferguson. The toss can be very important, especially given the new drop-in pitch at Oakland Coliseum, which is likely to help both batters and bowlers.
