MI New York will be out to avenge their Eliminator loss from last season. Texas Super Kings outplayed MINY in both departments, beating them by 9 wickets.
There are some major changes in the squads for both teams in the Major League Cricket 2025. Dewald Brewis is out of the MI New York squad, while the all-rounders’ department in the Texas Super Kings squad also looks a lot different from last year.
Dwayne Bravo, Aaron Hardie, and Mitchell Santner will not be featuring in the TSK squad this year. Marcus Stoinis and Daryl Mitchell will continue leading the batting effort, while Mohammad Mohsin and Zia-ul-Haq will be the key bowling all-rounders to watch out for in this squad.
MI New York, on the other hand, have expanded their all-rounders department and feature 6 batting all-rounders along with 2 bowling all-rounders. Their bowling attack also looks stronger this year and will pose a tough challenge to the Super Kings.

MI New York will have a new opener this year. Quinton de Kock will replace Brewis at the top. With no Shayan Jahangir in the squad this season, we expect a new opening partner for QDK.
Nicholas Pooran and Monank Patel will continue to feature in the middle order. Though Rashid Khan was pretty impressive with the bat at number 5, we think George Linde or Michael Bracewell should bat ahead of Khan.
Pollard has plenty of all-rounders in the squad to choose from. He is likely to add depth to the lineup this season. In the lower order, Azmatullah Omarazai and Kieron Pollard can put on a good show.
Naveen-ul-Haq and Ehsan Adil have replaced Rabada and Nortje in the bowling department. Trent Boult will continue to lead the bowling effort for MI New York and is the key wicket-taker in this squad.
It is a solid overall squad with experienced bowlers and big-hitting all-rounders. MI New York should come out all guns blazing in their opening game against the Super Kings.
Nicholas Pooran, with 568 runs in 15 matches, is the leading run-scorer in Major League Cricket. He has hit three half-centuries in his MLC career. He is coming off a season where he scored over 400 runs in the IPL and is in sublime form. The pitch conditions at Oakland favor batters, and with the short boundary dimensions, expect a run-feast from Pooran. We back him to score a fifty.

Texas Super Kings beat MINY in the Eliminator in the 2024 season but lost in the Challenger game against the Unicorns while chasing 201 runs. While skipper Faf du Plessis and Devon Conway would continue opening for the Super Kings, there will be some major changes in the middle-order.
There is no Aaron Hardie in the squad this year. Joshua Tromp and Milind Kumar will be the key middle-order players to watch out for. Daryl Mitchell is a reliable batter in the middle who can play the long game and take the team to a big total.
Marcus Stoinis can come in as a finisher lower down the order. Bowling all-rounders Mohammad Mohsin and Zia-ul-Haq seem indispensable to this lineup and consequently, will add more depth to this batting order.
Conway is ed by two more wicket-keepers this year. Donovan Ferreira is a great addition to the side. He brings experience to the lineup and will be one to watch out for.
In the bowling department, Adam Milne and Nandre Burger will lead the pace attack while Noor Ahmed and Akeal Hossein can weave magic with their spin bowling.
Marcus Stoinis is coming off a phenomenal season in the IPL for Punjab Kings, where he has been mighty effective in the death overs and mostly deals in boundaries. He is averaging 1.7 fours per innings in T20's played in 2025. Given his current form, we back Stoinis to hit over one four against MI New York.

It will be a bright, sunny day in California with a high of 27 degrees Celsius. There will be no weather interruptions during this game. The weather would affect the pitch, making it even better for a T20 game.
Oakland Coliseum in California will be the venue for this game. It wasn’t the venue last year, and this will be the first T20 match to be played on this ground. We expect a good batting surface that also offers a bit for the spinners. Pacers will resort to the slower delivery time, and again, to keep the batters in check.
The last match played at Oakland witnessed a six-hitting fest, with a total of 40 sixes struck. It is one of the shortest grounds in the MLC and a flat batting deck where the ball comes onto the bat nicely. You can expect another six-hitting feast, and we predict the total sixes in the match to be over 19.
The pitch at Oakland Coliseum favours the batters and is a high scoring venue where batsman are more likely to get big scores. With some of the best T20 batsman like Pooran, Faf du Plessis, Quinton de Kock featuring you can expect a big knock from either one of these batters and we predict at least one batter will score over 70 runs in this fixture.
The pitch at Oakland Coliseum favours the batters and the total match score in the previous match at this venue was 415 runs. With the boundaries being short straight down the ground on either sides and both teams boasting power packed batting lineups a high scoring match is one the cards.
We are backing the visitors Texas Super Kings to win the coin toss in match 2 of the Major League Cricket 2025 season.
There haven’t been any T20 matches played at this venue in the past, and hence, there is not much known about whether batting or bowling first will be the right choice. Nevertheless, considering the batting depth in both sides, we reckon chasing will be a good choice in this match.
Both teams have plenty of all-rounders in the side, which ensures great batting depth and variety in the bowling attack. MI New York seem to have a slight edge in the contest given their overall squad strength, and will start as favorites in our match prediction.
