The 2025 edition of Major League Cricket kicked off on June 12, with a commanding performance by the San Francisco Unicorns, who thrashed Washington Freedom by a staggering 123 runs. As the tournament progresses, fans can look forward to seeing several top-tier T20 stars—fresh from their IPL stints—bringing their flair and explosive style to the MLC. With global attention turning to the American T20 scene, these players are set to dazzle once again as they don the jerseys of their respective MLC franchises.

In this feature, we spotlight five such players who are poised to deliver standout performances in the ongoing season. Having impressed with their consistency and match-winning efforts during the IPL, these cricketers are expected to carry that momentum into MLC 2025. Their recent form, combined with their experience in pressure situations, makes them ones to watch as the tournament unfolds. Let’s take a closer look at these potential game-changers.

5. Sunil Narine (LA Knight Riders)

Sunil Narine KKR

The former West Indian cricketer is among the star players in the ongoing MLC. The 36-year-old performed well with the bat as well as with the ball in the recently concluded IPL season, scoring 246 runs with a strike rate of 170 and claiming 12 wickets with his clever off-break.

Sunil Narine will be captaining the team this season. LA Knight Riders would be looking to improve their performance from the last season, when they finished 5th.

4. Faf Du Plessis (Texas Super Kings)

Faf Du Plessis in DC 2025

The former South African skipper and batter played for Delhi Capitals during the 2025 IPL season and is captaining the Texas Super Kings in the ongoing MLC.

 Last season, Faf Du Plessis scored 520 runs for TSK with an average of 52.50 and will be aiming to perform well this season also. TSC performed decently last season and were third in the points table, but this time around, they would be aiming to win the trophy.

3. Heinrich Klaasen (Seattle Orcas)

Heinrich Klaasen 2025 SRH

Klaasen, who recently retired from International cricket, played a crucial role for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the recently concluded IPL 2025, scoring 487 runs in 13 innings. He is named as the captain of the Seattle Orcas during the ongoing MLC.

The former South African wicket-keeper batter could score just 97 runs in 7 MLC games last season, but this time around, the right-hander would be aiming to showcase his prowess with the bat.

2. Trent Boult (MI New York)

 Trent Boult MI 2025

Boult bowled brilliantly for Mumbai Indians during the 2025 IPL season, claiming 22 wickets and finishing joint third in the wicket-taking list. The left-arm Kiwi pacer will be representing MI New York in the 2025 MLC.

Boult performed impressively during the 2023 MLC season, claiming 22 wickets, but had an ordinary 2024 season where he claimed 9 wickets. This time around, Boult's form would be crucial if the MI New York sees itself as a contender for winning the trophy.

1. Nicolas Pooran (MI New York)

Nicolas Pooran for LSG in IPL 2025

The former West Indian cricketer, who retired from International cricket recently, looked in fine form for Lucknow Super Giants in the 2025 IPL season, scoring 524 runs in the entire season with a strike rate of 196.

He will be captaining the MI New York team and will be hoping his side improves its standing in the points table as in the last season MI New York team finished 4th in the table. Pooran's destructive hitting and his ability to take the game away form the opposition with his aggressive intent will be crucial for MI New York.

<![CDATA[WATCH: Trent Boult involved in funny run out against Texas Super Kings in MLC 2025]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-trent-boult-involved-in-funny-run-out-against-texas-super-kings-in-mlc-2025/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-trent-boult-involved-in-funny-run-out-against-texas-super-kings-in-mlc-2025/ Sat, 14 Jun 2025 15:16:03 GMT

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.

<![CDATA[[WATCH] IPL 2025: Jasprit Bumrah cleans up Shubman Gill with dream delivery in MI vs GT match]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-ipl-2025-jasprit-bumrah-cleans-up-shubman-gill-with-dream-delivery-in-mi-vs-gt-match/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-ipl-2025-jasprit-bumrah-cleans-up-shubman-gill-with-dream-delivery-in-mi-vs-gt-match/ Wed, 07 May 2025 02:30:47 GMT

In an exciting match of the IPL 2025 season, Jasprit Bumrah provided one of the highlight moments of the day during the match between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Gujarat Titans (GT). At a point when GT were sitting comfortably at 113/2 in the 14.4 over of their chase of MI's 155/8, Bumrah produced a "dream" delivery to dismiss GT Captain Shubman Gill, and with that opened the door for MI to get back into the game. At the time of Gill's dismissal, GT were chasing 43 runs off of 32 balls, so this was a crucial moment for MI in the match.

The match, played on May 6, 2025, at the Wankhede Stadium, saw MI post a modest total, thanks to Will Jacks’ 53 and Suryakumar Yadav’s 35. Gill was on 43 off of 45 balls whilst Sherfane Rutherford played a quick innings of 27 not out. Regardless of the rain that had already interrupted play as well, Bumrah's dismissal at this point was the highlight. Bumrah is known for his unconventional action and ability to bowl strictly to a plan and consistently land the ball on the target. On this delivery Bumrah bowled a beautifully executed yorker. Gill could not flick the ball off of his toes, and as Gill attempted to do so, Bumrah rattled his stumps! This was a classic Bumrah delivery, which assists in exemplifying why he is one of the best in the world!

Bumrah’s impact didn’t stop there. Above all, as well as bowling first, Boult, who also took a vital wicket, and their fast, aggressive bowling helped pull MI back into the match, despite the rain and wet conditions. Bumrah was unfazed, delivering 4 overs for 19 runs in what can only be described as a beautiful display of pressure bowling! He remarkably consistently hit the stumps, and as a result, froze GT's middle order.

A Game-Changing Spell!

Now, it was one thing to bowl Gill, but when it happened, GT were well ahead on runs at 87/1, and then they realized they were just below the reel-able required, but through Bumrah's spell, Boult's fast bowling, and the defense side of MI, GT were still not scoring runs, and MI had a chance to defend their total.  Sure enough, at the end, GT chased MI's score down, winning by three wickets on the last ball, but Bumrah's magic had kept this special match a contest to the last moment.

Bumrah showed MI, once again, why they will always value him as their ace and why they need to rely on his accuracy! Bumrah's dream ball to Gill should be enshrined as part of IPL 2025 match special memories.

The one who should be nervous about playing on such a big stage at this age is actually fearless. Instead, it’s the bowlers who are feeling the pressure because of him.

You’ve probably guessed who we’re talking about—Vaibhav Suryavanshi. This 14-year-old sensation has become the most talked-about name in world cricket over the past few days. Suryavanshi first grabbed headlines when he became the youngest player ever to be sold at the IPL auction. Then, he stunned everyone by hitting a six off the very first ball of his IPL debut. And now, since Monday night, after becoming the youngest centurion in T20 history, the buzz around him just refuses to die down.

Suryavanshi's Record-Breaking Century Keeps Rajasthan's Playoff Hopes Alive

Vaibhav Suryavanshi led Rajasthan Royals to a thrilling win against Gujarat Titans with a world-record century off just 35 balls. He smashed 11 sixes and 7 fours before being dismissed for 101 runs off 38 balls. Thanks to his unbelievable innings, Rajasthan is still in the race for an IPL playoff spot.

Rajasthan's Must-Win Match Against a Strong Mumbai Indians Side

Rajasthan Royals now face a 'do or die' match against Mumbai Indians, one of the most successful teams in IPL history. Mumbai started the season slowly but has bounced back with five wins in a row, climbing to third place in the points table. Their bowling lineup includes star names like Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult, Mitchell Santner, and Hardik Pandya.

Suryavanshi's Batting Leaves Bowlers Under Pressure

But Suryavanshi isn’t someone who cares about names—he only focuses on the ball. His fearless batting style has made even top bowlers cautious. Mumbai will have to be extra alert when facing this 14-year-old rising star.

Boult Ready for the Challenge

When asked about the young prodigy at a press conference, Mumbai's star pacer Trent Boult said he is ready to take on the challenge. He reminded everyone that he has faced and dismissed some of the best in the business.

"I have bowled against greats like Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers—they’re world-class players. I'm not worried about a 14-year-old, but yes, I’ll be careful. He’s in top form and batting fearlessly. Facing him will be an exciting challenge," said the 35-year-old Boult.

"This Is the Beauty of IPL": Boult Praises Young Talent

Boult also praised the IPL for discovering rare talent. "The whole world saw his performance that night. It’s amazing how a young boy can play such an innings. That’s the beauty of this tournament—everyone wants to grab their chance, and I think he has done that beautifully."

From the bottom of the points table to now at number 3, Mumbai Indians (MI) is back on their track, which can lead them to the play-offs. New Zealand and MI experienced pacer Trent Boult, who picked out four wickets in the last outing against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, believes that Rohit Sharma will play a key role in the second half of the ongoing IPL 2025

After a substandard start in the initial part of the current season, the five-time IPL champion franchise took their time and came back with rhythm on the field at the right moment. Slowly but steadily, the Mumbai Indians have shown their tactical moves brilliantly. The win against their arch nemesis, Chennai Super Kings (CSK), was pointed out as a crucial result for the Hardik Pandya-led side. MI outclassed CSK in the easiest way possible. Mumbai chased down Super Kings' 176 by 9 wickets. The player of the match, Rohit Sharma, played an unbeaten 76 off 45 balls. Sharma was looking dangerous at the top order with his opening partner Ryan Rickelton. 

Following the Chennai Super Kings match, SRH also could not do much against MI. Again, Rohit proved his elegance by scoring 70, facing only 46 deliveries. Trent Boult, the best player of the SRH vs. MI match, who took 4 wickets in his 4 overs quota in exchange for 26 runs, said that Sharma's recent form is an asset for the team.

Mumbai Indians are on 4-match winning streak

Trent Boult was full of praise for Rohit's present form, and that he is playing exceptionally well and making a timely return to peak performance. Boult stated that Rohit's contributions with the bat are important, and coming at a critical time in the tournament. Boult said he does not doubt that Rohit will make a big contribution in the last half of the season. Boult mentioned Rohit's leadership and form, and would have a big say on their momentum and success going into the games.Rohit Sharma has so far claimed 228 runs in his first eight outings of IPL 2025, including a 76* at an average of 32.57. Mumbai Indians' next encounter will be against Lucknow Super Giants, set to be held on April 27 at Wankhede Stadium. 

"Rohit is doing a fantastic job at the moment—he is playing well and timing his return to form perfectly. He is going to be key for us in the second half of the season," Boult said.

Karun Nair came agonizingly close to pulling off a stunning turnaround for Delhi Capitals with a brilliant 89-run knock, which pushed Mumbai Indians (MI) to dig deep into their bowling reserves. In response, Trent Boult unleashed six consecutive yorkers to keep DC at bay.

The clash between MI and DC was a tightly contested affair. After setting a strong total of 205 in the first innings, MI looked in control. But when Nair walked in, he changed the momentum with his composed and powerful batting. Having already made waves in the Ranji Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy, Nair nearly rescued DC from a tough spot. At the time of his dismissal, the scoreboard read 135/3, and Delhi still had a fighting chance.

However, DC's resistance crumbled after Nair’s exit. MI bowlers, led by the experienced Trent Boult, turned up the heat and ensured their team registered their second win of the season.

Boult's over-shifted momentum 

Trent Boult delivered a brilliant spell under pressure, firing one pinpoint yorker after another at the Delhi Capitals batters. With the required run rate climbing, DC needed to rotate strike quickly to stay in the game. But, Boult’s relentless accuracy made scoring nearly impossible. Each delivery targeted the base of the stumps or landed perfectly in the blockhole, giving the batters no room to work with. The pressure mounted with every ball as Boult maintained complete control, showcasing his experience and skill in closing out tight games.
