Washington Freedom

Wicketkeeper-batter Andries Gous has the power game to destroy bowling attacks. His best batting display this year was 80 not out against Texas Super Kings in Dallas. Mukhtar Ahmed gave the Seattle Orcas no chance of making a game of it when he blasted 36 runs not out off 21 balls. Glenn Phillips adds stability and firepower in the middle order after hitting a half-century against San Francisco only two innings ago.

Captain Glenn Maxwell brings explosive batting and vital overs of off-spin. The Australian ripped the hearts out of the Seattle Orcas with bowling figures of three for 12 against them. Rachin Ravindra has quietly been one of the most effective all-rounders.

The New Zealander went along to a brisk 32 runs and maiden wicket over against Seattle. Mitchell Owen had a stormer of a game when the side took on MI New York previously. The young Australian produced an all-round masterclass with 60 runs off 26 balls, one wicket and two catches.

This year has been a quieter year for Obus Pienaar. The South African-born American has made his starts count though with a batting average of 38 and strike rate of 140.74.

With ball in hand against the Orcas, Saurabh Netravalkar and Jack Edwards were unplayable. The fast bowlers claimed three wickets each. Although going wicketless in that match, Lockie Ferguson played his part by only conceding ten runs in four overs. Ian Holland brings control and seam movement in the middle overs. The 34-year-old American has ten wickets this MLC season.

Number three Nicholas Pooran is the side’s most explosive batter with his audacious stroke range and game-changing knocks. He made a start of 30 runs against the Knight Riders recently.

Kieron Pollard, with years of T20 experience, remains an unequivocal great of the game. He hit a half-century against Los Angeles Knight Riders.

George Linde further strengthens the squad with his left-arm spin. The all-rounder has 188 T20 wickets with four four-wicket hauls.

Trent Boult leads the attack with new-ball swing and sharp yorkers at the death. The former Black Cap has already made key breakthroughs in the early overs this MLC season. He took four for 17 against Los Angeles Knight Riders.

Nosthush Kenjige complements him with left-arm orthodox spin. He bowled a tight spell of one for 14 in three overs in his previous bowling performance. Ehsan Adil brings seam experience and control in the middle overs.

The Pakistani-born pacer has five wickets this MLC season. Young Rushil Ugarkar shows promise with his variation and pace. He has started with four wickets in the MLC after seven games.
