The Major League Cricket (MLC) tournament kicked off today, July 14 (India), and promises to captivate fans with its high-octane matches.
Six teams will battle it out for glory in the inaugural season of the Major League Cricket tournament. The Grand Prairie Stadium in Texas and Church Street Park in Morrisville, North Carolina, have been selected as the venues for all 19 matches. The MLC 2023 final is scheduled to take place on July 30, 2023.
Notably, three teams are owned by the franchises associated with the IPL. The Texas team is owned by the Chennai Super Kings, the New York team by the Mumbai Indians, and the Los Angeles team by the Kolkata Knight Riders.
Additionally, the co-owners of the Delhi Capitals have a stake in the Seattle Orcas team. With such powerhouse teams in the mix, the MLC tournament promises to be a fiercely competitive affair.
The MLC tournament could potentially pave the way for more cricket matches in the United States, especially with the T20 World Cup scheduled to be hosted there in June next year. Check complete details on MLC 2023 live streaming, broadcasting partners and more.
