Texas Super Kings vs MI New York: MLC 2025 Qualifier 2 live streaming, TV schedule and weather update
Texas Super Kings will take on MI New York in Qualifier 2 of the Major League Cricket
The Texas Super Kings and MI New York face each other in the high-stakes Qualifier 2 of the Major League Cricket (MLC) on Friday, July 11. The match will take place at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Texas.
This comes after New Zealand pacer Trent Boult turned hero, both with the bat and ball, as he guided MI New York to a dramatic victory by two wickets against San Francisco Unicorns in a rain-affected MLC eliminator on Thursday.
Prior to this, the rains played spoilsport during the Qualifier 1 match of the league between Washington Freedom and Texas Super Kings. The game was later abandoned without a ball being bowled, while superior position on the points table in the group stage helped Washington Freedom qualify as the first finalists of MLC season this year.
The Texas Super Kings will now take on MI New York in Qualifier 2 and the winner will get to face Washington Freedom in the final match of the tournament on Sunday, July 13.
