Match 5 | MINYvSO: Let’s go get pole
By MI New York Media
Facts first. With the Texas Super Kings having chased down their target against the San Francisco Unicorns last night, three teams have gotten a Q against their names. MI New York don’t have it yet, but it’s going to require a mathematical miracle for us to not be in the play-offs. One foot’s there. The other’s a millimeter away. And a win over Seattle will comfortably put us at the top of the table.
Okay, into the specifics now. We have four points, but thanks to two thumping wins, our NRR of +1.319 is something everybody outside is envious of. The Orcas are coming off a very close loss against the Knight Riders, but with three wins off their first three games, are still table toppers. That’s what we are out to reverse.
Everything just clicked against for us against Washington Freedom. Our top-order troubles were sorted. Our death bowling clicked. Our batting, well, that was always sorted and clicking. It’s just about sticking to the basics, keeping our eyes on the road, and using our Morrisville form one last time.
What: MI New York vs Seattle Orcas
When: July 25, 2023 | 5:00pm local time (July 26, 2:30am IST)
Where: Church Street Park, Morrisville
What to expect: Another batting beauty where chasing down totals is the norm, which makes the toss all the more important. Seattle, with a top two finish guaranteed, could in fact look to experiment with their squad too.
What you need to do: Here’s the target: A top of the table finish. You know you are our impact sub. You know what you’ve done to get us here. You know what you need to do to get us- there.
One last time from Morrisville, let’s grab every ounce of momentum.
