Head-to-Head

Texas Super Kings Form

After two defeats in a row the Super Kings won their last two matches on the bounce to move to the top of the table.

Adam Milne (2/22) and Donovan Ferreira (3/14) starred with the ball as the Super Kings restricted the defending champs MI New York for just 127/9 off their 20 overs.

The Super Kings made heavy work of hitting their target, getting to 132/4 with an over to spare. Saiteja Mukkamalla (38 off 37), Rilee Rossouw (18 off 23) and Milind Kumar (22 off 17) took the Super Kings to their second win on the bounce.

Washington Freedom Form

Last year’s losing finalists have struggled to close out their opponents twice despite twice scoring over 200. They will be disappointed to have folded for 139 in their last match when chasing the Orcas’ target of 228.

Marco Jansen (3/33) and Ian Holland (2/49) picked up five of the six Orcas wickets to fall as they racked up 227/6 off their 20 overs.

None of the Freedom’s top seven could make it into the 20s, leaving Marco Jansen (20 off 20) and Ian Holland (26 off 19) to lift the Freedom to a disappointing 139 off 16.2 overs.

Team news

The Super Kings side is playing well as a unit and is unlikely to be changed as they look for a third win on the bounce. Washington Freedom will be looking for their strong batting line-up to get among the runs again after their collapse against the Orcas.

Texas Super Kings (possible XI): Faf du Plessis (c), Saiteja Mukkamalla, Rilee Rossouw, Milind Kumar, Shubham Ranjane, Donovan Ferreira, Wiaan Mulder, Hardus Viljoen, Adam Milne, Amshi de Silva, Abhimanyu Lamba.

Washington Freedom (possible XI): Steven Smith (c), Andries Gous, Mark Chapman, Glenn Maxwell, Jack Edwards, Obus Pienaar, Ian Holland, Mitchell Owen, Marco Jansen, Saurabh Netravalkar, Asif Mehmood.
