Unless and until MI New York suffer a humiliating defeat at the hands of Seattle Orcas in their upcoming match in MLC 2023, they are on the verge of qualifying for the next round. They have had a mixed season so far but will be aiming to finish stronger in order to qualify with some momentum.
Seattle, on the other hand, won their first three matches of the season but suffered their first loss against Los Angeles Knight Riders in their last match. Their bowlers looked pale and that is one area that the team needs to work on. There’s room for improvement for the batters as well but they have the much-needed firepower in the middle order.
