In the second match of Major League Cricket 2025, MI New York met the Texas Super Kings at the Oakland Coliseum in California on June 13. Texas won by three runs in a game that went down to the very last ball.

MI New York started poorly, losing three wickets for just 24 runs. They fought back with a 97-run partnership, but could not finish the chase. In one of the most bizarre moments, Trent Boult was run out in just the 11th delivery after a simple mix-up—perhaps the funniest run-out you will ever see. Earlier, Kieron Pollard had a shocking brain-fade that cost his team another wicket.

Daryl Mitchell was the hero for Texas. Even though he gave away 53 runs in his four overs, his final deliveries saved eight runs and sealed the win. Pollard did manage one powerful shot that broke a stadium window, and the match featured three run-outs in total—two of which looked more like street cricket than professional play.

Pollard hit a powerful shot that broke the window glass. Mitchell came to bowl the 17th over of MI New York’s innings. The first ball was hit for a four. On the next ball, Pollard smashed a six over long-on that went straight into the window glass of a luxury suite in section 142 of the Oakland Coliseum. A hole was made where the ball hit, and the glass broke. Pollard then hit two more fours on the next two balls and scored 18 runs in that over.

But then came Pollard’s careless moment. On the fifth ball of the same over, Mitchell bowled a full-length delivery near Pollard’s feet. Pollard flicked it and started to walk for a single. Mitchell ran quickly to the ball and threw it towards the non-striker’s end. At first, Pollard was just walking, but when he saw the throw, he began to run. It was too late. Mitchell hit the stumps, and Pollard was run out. He scored 32 runs off 16 balls, hitting five fours and one six.

Another run out happened on the very next ball. Monank Patel tried to play the ball but it hit his pads and rolled to the off side. Mitchell picked it up fast and hit the stumps again. Monank could not return in time and was run out. MI New York’s score became 159 for six.

The funniest moment of the match came in the 19th over with Trent Boult’s run out. Tajinder Singh played Adam Milne’s ball to deep third man and ran for a run. He thought about going for a second run but then refused. However, Boult had already started running. During the run, Boult’s bat slipped from his hand. He tried to reach the crease by diving with his hand, but he was short. Devon Conway removed the bails after a quick throw from Mohammad Mohsin. Boult’s dismissal looked very silly and is being called one of the strangest run outs in T20 cricket.

There were just 14 balls left in the match when Boult got out. His run out changed the momentum, and what looked like a possible win for MI New York turned into a close loss. Fans are calling it one of the most bizarre and comic moments in MLC history.
