Match Preview

As the bottom half of the points table scrambles to catch up with the top half, the Seattle Orcas will take on MI New York in a crucial matchup on Friday. The Orcas are still searching for their first win of the season. Despite having some big names in the league, the team has not been able to register even a single win.

MI New York on the other hand has won only one game and despite being in the top four, will not be feeling comfortable. They need a few points to create separation from the bottom two and for that, they will need to get a couple of wins as soon as possible.

Injuries & Illnesses

There are no reports of injuries from either side

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The Grand Prairie Stadium usually offers a good batting surface and we can expect plenty of runs to be scored. However, looking at the last three games played here, the surface seems to have dried out a bit, and the ball does stop a bit after pitching, making it a tad bit difficult for the batsmen to time the ball. Also, the spinners can expect some grip from the surface.

The weather will remain warm and there is no forecast for rain.

SO vs MINY Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Quinton de Kock is the top choice here. He has batted consistently well for MI New York, scoring 3 half-centuries and we expect him to bat well. We are also selecting Nicholas Pooran. He hasn’t been in the best of forms but if he gets going, Pooran could score plenty of runs. The other two picks include Shayan Jahangir and Heinrich Klaasen.

Batters

Monank Patel is the leading run-scorer for MI New York and is the obvious choice. We are also going with Kieron Pollard.

All Rounders

While there are quite a few all-rounders to choose from in this match, we are selecting only Kyle Mayers and Michael Bracewell and the others haven’t performed well.

Bowlers

The bowlers have played a vital role in the last few matches and we are selecting three seamers here, Naveen ul-Haq, Trent Boult, and Gerald Coetzee.

SO vs MINY Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

Michael Bracewell is the skipper of our team. He has done an excellent job with the bat and the ball. Also, as the pitch has helped the slower bowlers over the last few games, Bracewell could play an important role in this match.

Vice-Captain

We are selecting Monank Patel as the vice-captain of the team. He has been consistent at the top of the order and has scored 3 half-centuries in his last 5 matches.

SO vs MINY Team Expert Advice

As has been the case over most of the matches this season, we have selected quite a few batsmen for our team. While most of them are big strikers of the ball, they are yet to perform to their full potential. It is the same with all-rounders as well. We would have liked to include a couple of more all-rounders in the team but they lack consistency.

The bowlers have had a say in the last few games and we have a bowling unit that relies heavily on seam.
