  • Washington Freedom’s Glenn Phillips has scored 33*, 58, 18* & 14* in his last 4 innings.
  • Texas Super Kings’ Faf du Plessis (409 runs, ave 51.12) is 1st on the Major League Cricket runs list.
  • Texas Super Kings’ Shubham Ranjane scored 65 off 41 balls against the Seattle Orcas.

Washington Freedom have won two and lost one of their four matches against the Super Kings. The other match was rained-off.

Washington Freedom Form


Washington Freedom beat MI New York by six wickets in a rain-reduced match to complete their eighth win from their last nine matches. 

Glenn Maxwell (3/29, econ 7.25) led a superb bowling performance as the MI New York batters were reduced to 112/8 off their 18 overs.

Andries Gous scored a superb 46* off 34 balls to guide the Freedom to a six-wicket win with three overs in hand. 

Washington Freedom Team News


Washington Freedom are in excellent form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team. 

Texas Super Kings Form


The Super Kings bounced back from defeat to the Unicorns to beat the Orcas by 51 runs. It was their fourth win in seven matches, including three defeats.    

The Super Kings posted a score of 188/4 off their 20 overs against the Orcas. Faf du Plessis (91* off 52 balls) and Shubham Ranjane (65* off 41 balls) added 132 for the third wicket. 

Adam Milne (5/23, econ 6.27) was the star of the Super Kings bowlers as they rolled the Orcas for 137 off 18.4 overs. 

Texas Super Kings Team News


There are no injury reports from the Texas Super Kings squad.

Verdict

I am backing Washington Freedom to win. I am also backing Andries Gous to top score for Washington Freedom.

Faf du Plessis is a good bet to top score for the Texas Super Kings.
