Despite being inconsistent throughout the Major League Cricket 2023, MI New York managed to qualify for the playoffs and will be challenging Washington Freedom on July 28 to seal the Challenger berth. Under the leadership of Kieron Pollard, there have been a few occasions where the team has played extremely well, however, bowling has been one of the areas of concern. Hence, there is a lot of room for improvement as the team will hope to move to the next round.
Meanwhile, their opponent, Washington Freedom suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of MI New York in the league stage and will be aiming to make a comeback. Their batting looks a bit dull but the likes of Matthew Short, Glenn Phillips and Moises Henriques can change the complexion of the game any time.
