Match 9 | MINYvLAKR: The playoff quest, episode 2/3
By MI New York Media
There’s no downtime. In around 36 hours, we are back, for a repeat clash. The Florida leg has started off on a high with MI New York being absolutely clinical in their win over the LA Knight Riders. Everything went as per plan: Trent Boult setting the tone with a wicket off the first ball, 29/3 in the powerplay, restricting them to an under-par total of 156, and then Monank Patel and Nicholas Pooran hunting it down without fuss.
We’ve found our momentum, and now need to step on the gas as we hope to storm into the playoffs with this late surge. The mission is crystal clear: we simply have to win it all. LAKR are a team we enjoy a good record against, but they’d be itching to get one over us as well, given that they need to win each of their remaining two games as well to have a chance of going through. But we are prepared. Bring. It. On.
