Major League Cricket - 2023 Edition

[Strangering]

American local talent is largely trash. These tournaments are fun when the local talent rises to the occasion. Otherwise, we've seen and will see more of the international group as always.

El Classico today

 

CSK vs MI  :)

 

Asterix vs Velu

Edited July 17, 2023 by vvvslaxman

[Tarak9]

Rabada gets Faf D cheaply but Conway 34 not out in first power play vs Mumbai ny

 

Texas Super King 58/1*

 

Rashid khan back as TSk loose 2nd wicket✍️

[vvvslaxman]

MI having Rashid immensely boosts their bowling attack

[vvvslaxman]

Conway is in rich vein of form. So is David Miller

[vvvslaxman]

Rabada gets Miller too with wide yorker. Miller sliced to third man. Now Santa claus is in. 

[vvvslaxman]

CSK fans bring the crowd to every match. Not the same with other franchises. If SRH had a US team I am sure the stadium will be overflowing :) What say @maniac

[vvvslaxman]

Conway castled by Rashid khan. No answer.

[vvvslaxman]

Rashid has 2 slips for Bravo bowling 17th over

[vvvslaxman]

Santa claus (santner) destroyed Boult over  extra cover for six

[vvvslaxman]

What ball striking from Santner. Thrashed Rabada straight down the ground for six.

[sage]

rubbish standard of fielding

[Tarak9]

Mumbai NY continued their struggle lost last 6 wickets for 50 & lost by 17 runs although Shayan jahngir as opener scored 41 stumpped & Pooran run out.

 

Conway won it for Super King with Brilliant batting

[IndiaWC8311]

Mumbai despite having world class players like Rashid, Boult, Rabada, tim David, Pooran etc continue to fail when it matters

 

They also had star studded team in SA20 and did not even make playoffs.

 

over-rated franchise

[vvvslaxman]

Russell smoked Haris Rauf for 108 meter six

Nothing near me

I am quite surprised a thread is open for this mediocre tournament:

 

*No Indian Players

*No T20 status so stats don't count

*I am not sure what the appeal is apart from the game growing in USA

*Possible match fixing could be going on so the viewer could be watching a bollywood movie without even knowing

 

Anyway just my opinion, if you enjoy it keep watching it.

 

Peace.

Somebody hitting ball somewhere lol We watch. Besides lot of the players who take part current international players. Better commentary panel. Better coverage. I say this is better than the crappy WI serie we are playing infront of empty stadium.

I'm sorry but I hope its at least a Tollywood movie. Bollywood is insulting. 

 

Also - disagree that Indian players are needed for a good experience. There is significant and high level international player participation (surprised me). And many of them are better players than Indian ones.
