MINY win MLC 2025

Put in to bat first, MI openers Monank Patel (28) and Quinton de Kock (77) provided the perfect start for the side stitching together a 72-run opening partnership. The rest of the batters failed to fire as Lockie Ferguson and co. struck at regular intervals to leave MINY reeling. Contributions from Pooran (21) and Kunwarjeet Singh helped the team reach a total of 180 runs at the end of the 1st innings.

Washington Freedom suffered a double blow early on in the run-chase as they lost opener Mitchell Owen and Andries Gous in the first over. Rachin Ravindra attempted a fightback by scoring 70 runs off 41 deliveries but failed to take the team across the line as he was dismissed in the 16th over. In the end, it was Ugarkar who defended 12 runs off the final over as WAF fell short by an agonizing 5-run margin, failing to defend the title.
