Howdy! Welcome to Morrisville, the land for MLC’s second leg. The land of the business end. The land where we find our momentum and get on a winning roll. 

Morrisville, a culturally rich town situated in North Carolina, is just a 2-hour flight from New York. The city is home to exciting attractions like the RDU observation park, Lake Crabtree County Park, Ryder Brook Golf Course, apart from a diverse range of eateries. And of course, there’s Church Street Park. 

For the cricket lover

Morrisville has hosted a number of games at Church Street Park including Minor League Cricket and ICC Americas Sub Regional T20 World Cup Qualifier. It is also a popular training spot for both the USA Men’s and Women’s cricket teams.

The stadium has been renovated in recent times and studded with new features including added cricket pitch lanes, which can now accommodate around 3000 individuals, new grandstand bleachers, LED-lit practice pitches, and nets. For the commentators, an elevated booth with camera platforms has been created and the infrastructure for tv broadcasting has been upgraded. 

Don’t worry, they are not leaving you hungry. There will be food trucks offering beverages and meals to keep you in good spirits. All you need to do is just arrive. Entertainment is assured. 

For the avid outdoor enthusiast 

Interested in doing something else over the week, other than watching the MI NY matches. Morrisville has got you covered. Catch a round of golf at the Ryder Brook Golf Club. You can recover from the bustling city and catch some exciting views of Vermont’s highest peak. Additionally, Triangle Rock Club is an enormous facility that houses a 55-foot climbing gym. This rock-climbing gymnasium offers all the challenges of climbing and bouldering, but indoors. 

For families 

Interested in a family outing? One can come enjoy the views from RDU Observation Park which offers unobstructed views of the airport runways and the traffic control tower. Do you miss the greens of Central Park? Head to Lake Crabtree County Park to get your bit of greenery in the middle of the city. Bordering the 520-acre lake, the park highlights adventurous hiking trails, tracks for mountain biking, play areas for children, and boat rentals during the season. 

There is something for everyone in Morrisville. If you happen to be around, make sure you hop in wearing your Blue and Gold, and be our 12th man in the squad, cheering us along as we make our bid to storm into the play-offs.

MI #OneFamily in 2025: Five playoffs, THREE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES across three continents

2025 has been special. Five teams. Five playoffs. A champion in all three continents – Asia, Africa, America. Winning in the Mumbai Indians #OneFamily. We have added another star to our crest. Our Blue has some more Gold. It’s another epic day in our history with MI New York scripting history in the USA and winning their second MLC title. It’s a day to celebrate. In fact, it’s been a year on the whole to celebrate. MI Emirates were the first to make it to the playoffs. MI Cape Town went a step further in what was an absolutely dominant SA20 campaign to bag their first title. The Mumbai Indians Women then took the baton and marched towards their second championship win in the WPL. The men then fought a stellar campaign, coming back after losing four of their first five matches in the IPL to go on a seven-match winning run and break open the playoffs door. Although it ended in the second Qualifier, it was a campaign for us to be proud of. And finally, the boys in America have capped off the year on a high. They went a step further, peaking at just the right time, having won just one out of the first seven league games, to go on an unstoppable roll, bringing home our 13th piece of silverware in our rich history. 5 – IPL (2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2020) | Mumbai Indians2 – CLT20 (2011, 2013) | Mumbai Indians2 – WPL (2023, 2025) | Mumbai Indians2 – MLC (2023, 2025) | MI New York1 – ILT20 (2024) | MI Emirates1 – SA20 (2025) | MI Cape Town Fam, let’s pop the champagne!

MI Fam, MI Champion team, MI New York

It's a day to rejoice. We know you've been watching that last over on loop, you've smashed the replay button on Polly's acrobatic catch, just as we know you've been standing by us like a rock when the going got tough. ‘Peaking at the right time’, ‘It’s never about how you start but always about where you finish', ‘MI Spirit time', you've probably been hearing a lot of all this over the last few weeks. The tournament graph indeed was one of redemption, of rising from rock bottom. One more loss and we would've been out. But this where the peak MI character, ingrained in every player who dons the Blue and Gold around the world in all its different teams, rises. A character where we refuse to give up. A character where we always believe the trophy is ours. “Everyone stood together through highs and lows. Losing games is tough,” said Nicholas Pooran after the Final. "Every single person put their hands up…everyone had that belief and that is what I felt took us through. We believed there was a chance. That was the conversation, to just believe, stay together."After the action moved to Florida, the two back to back wins over LA Knight Riders injected some momentum into our campaign, helping us sneak into the playoffs. And Beast Mode arrived. “When you look at it, everyone that beat us twice in the tournament, when it mattered the most in the playoffs, we knocked them out. Sport is a wonderful thing. This moment may not come back again and we will never forget in our life. We are going to cherish it, embrace it,” he said. This is MI team. This is MI Fam. We are MI New York.
