Texas Super Kings (TEX) took on Seattle Orcas (SEA) in Match 7 of the 2025 Major League Cricket (MLC) season at the Oakland Coliseum, California. The Orcas won the toss and chose to field first, but Texas made the game a one-sided contest with comprehensive performances in both departments before ending in a landslide win by a whopping 93 runs.

Texas Super Kings Innings

Batting first, Texas Super Kings scored 153/6 in their 20 overs. Saiteja Mukkamalla scored a fluent 30 off 23 balls, while Marcus Stoinis contributed sharp runs with a 28 off only 12 deliveries. Daryl Mitchell contributed a sedate 25 off 26 balls to steady the middle overs. For the Orcas, Harmeet Singh (2/24), Jasdeep Singh (2/34), and Obed McCoy (1/22) chipped in with important breakthroughs but could not stop Texas from constructing a decent total.

Seattle Orcas Innings

In response, the Seattle Orcas were torn apart for only 60 in 13.5 overs, suffering a complete collapse. Aaron Jones led the way with the bat, scoring 17 off 17, while Jasdeep Singh managed 12 off 26; all the other batsmen fell cheaply. The Texas bowlers were relentless, and Nandre Burger claimed 3/10 in 3.5 overs, Zia Ul Haq Muhammad 3/16 and Noor Ahmad 3/18 were all efficient in their spells to rattle the Orcas batting lineup.

Players Battle:
Faf du Plessis vs Obed McCoy

Waqar has a mystery about his spin, which is a test for T’s steady application.

Klaasen’s swashbuckling spin-hitting against Noor’s hungry left-arm wrist spin.

Milne's extreme pace can derail Mayers' explosive power play starts.

Sikandar Raza vs Calvin Savage

• Texas Super Kings vs Seattle Orcas – 07th Match, MLC 2025
• Venue: Oakland Coliseum, United States
• Date & Time: 17th June 2025 at 06:30 AM IST

Players Battle :
Faf du Plessis vs Obed McCoy
 Faf’s desperation to dominate the powerplay may be challenged by McCoy’s wicked cutters and the left-armer’s angle across the right-hander, a ploy awkward enough to put aggressive right-handers in their early bit of strife.

Devon Conway vs Waqar Salamkheil. Their dismissals of Devon Conway both at the Basin Reserve and University Oval cost New Zealand at least their best batsman. Conway’s patient and technically correct batting style is a good fit for Waqar’s erratic left-arm wrist spin, especially on turning tracks where a single wrong read can lead to a wicket.

Klaasen Vs Noor Ahmad
 Klaasen’s power-packed display against spinners will go up against Noor Ahmad’s quick-arm action and sharp spin — a classic case of timing vs trickery in the middle overs.

Kyle Mayers vs Adam Milne
 Mayers is quite a powerplay-pace-basher, but Milne does bounce it sharp, bowls with good-speed-accuracy and can sting the eyballs of even the most aggressive openers: in particular, with a bit of early swing.

Sikandar Raza vs Calvin Savage
Raza’s strong finishing ability and sharp stroke-rotation will counterattack against Savage’s tight death-over bowling which revolves around yorkers and slow balls to squeeze runs under pressure.

Pitch Report

The pitch at Oakland Coliseum is balanced, indicatively providing good performance for batters and bowlers alike. Often the pitch offers up good pace and bounce and is more favorable to fast bowlers, particularly early and in cool conditions around the mornings. Batters will be able to play any shot once settled, but the surface will slow down as play continues; therefore, spinners may become more effective as the game type shifts to day/night. The boundaries are average length and provide an equitable contest between bat and ball.

• Bowlers: likely assistance for pacers early, whereas spinners will become more effective later.
• Spinners: Most likely to be effective during the middle and later overs.
• Field Size: average boundary length for balanced and an equitable contest for batters and bowlers

The seventh game of Major League Cricket (MLC) 2025 between Seattle Orcas (SEA) and Texas Super Kings (TEX) is scheduled at the iconic Oakland Coliseum at 6:30 AM IST on Tuesday, June 17, 2025. TEX, led by Faf du Plessis with stars such as Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell, has been off to a great start in the season, with two victories in two games and an unbeaten record, sitting second in the table. SEA, led by Heinrich Klaasen with players such as David Warner and Shimron Hetmyer, is hoping to change their season around after going down by five wickets against Washington Freedom in their opener, after having a dismal 2024 season with only one victory.

This morning's game will provide hard-hitting T20 cricket in front of a vibrant 12,000-strong audience celebrating MLC's inaugural West Coast launch. Despite SEA’s head-to-head edge, TEX’s superior opening partnerships in both matches this season make this a highly anticipated clash at the batting-friendly Coliseum in the expanded 34-game season.
