Los Angeles Knight Riders will take on Washington Freedom in Match 17 of Major League Cricket 2025 at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.

Barring the six-wicket win against Seattle Orcas, Los Angeles have lost all their games in MLC 2025 so far. They would be desperate to overturn their fortunes.

After a 123-run pounding in their season opener, Washington have been on a roll by winning four wins in succession.

The previous couple of outings after the breathtaking ton haven't been the best for Glenn Maxwell. He could be expected to come back to form in this game.

Saurabh Netravalkar's spell of 2/6 in 3.3 overs against Los Angeles was a top piece of bowling by the left-armer. He is expected to shine once more.
