TEX vs NY: Team Previews

Texas Super Kings

Led by Faf du Plessis, Texas Super Kings have had a topsy-turvy journey in the Major League Cricket, occupying the third position in the six-team standings with three wins in seven outings. 

Skipper Du Plessis has been the most significant contributor in the batting department, while New Zealand’s Devon Conway being the second-best with 180 runs in six matches. 

However, the Super Kings would want better returns from their bowlers, who have mostly failed to strike at crucial junctures. 

Zia-ul-Haq and Marcus Stoinis have scalped six wickets each, while Noor Ahmad has showcased his mettle, picking up five wickets in two outings.

Pollard and Pooran will be key players for MINY [X]

On the other hand, MI New York had a disastrous run in the first half of the competition, losing four of their first six matches. 

However, riding on a heroic knock from skipper Kieron Pollard, MI finally broke their losing streak and entered the playoffs with a four-wicket victory over Los Angeles Knight Riders. 

Marquee overseas players Rashid Khan and Trent Boult have been exceptional with the ball, while Nicholas Pooran has emerged as MI’s wrecker-in-chief with the bat, scoring 172 runs in six games. 

However, the fact that Rashid Khan is MI’s second-highest run-getter highlights their collective failure as a batting unit. 

So, moving on to this must-win game, MI New York would like better performances from their batters- particularly Dewald Brevis.

TEX vs NY: Grand Prairie Stadium pitch report

The surface at Grand Prairie Stadium will offer minimal seam movement to the fast bowlers. However, the pacers might succeed with their change-ups as it’s the 13th MLC 2024 game at this venue. 

So, the ball could hold up a bit, also offering a hint of turn to the spinners. The track generally behaves similarly across the match; so, expect the toss-winner to bowl first.
