Pre-Match Analysis:

Finn Allen’s record-breaking century in league history lit up the stage as the San Francisco Unicorns defeated the defending champions, the Washington Freedom, by 123 runs in the tournament opener on Friday. On a drop-in surface at the Oakland Coliseum, Finn Allen ruthlessly attacked the Washington bowlers, bringing up his century in just 34 balls, the fastest in the MLC, and he didn’t stop there, going on to score 151 off 51 balls. Along with his stellar batting and a late cameo from Hassan Khan (38* off 18 balls), the team posted a total of 269 for 5.

In response, the bowlers took advantage of the massive total, bowling out their opponents for a meager 146. Haris Rauf and Hassan Khan took honors with three wickets each, while Carmi le Roux picked up two wickets.

The Los Angeles Knight Riders will be looking to refresh themselves for the third season after finishing in the bottom half in the first two editions. They made several changes to their squad, letting go of key overseas players Jason Roy, David Miller, Shakib Al Hasan, Waqar Salamkheil, and Josh Little.

The Indian-based franchise has acquired Alex Hales, Sherfane Rutherford, Rovman Powell, Jason Holder, Andre Fletcher, and Tanveer Sangha as their overseas picks in the draft. Their foreign retention list includes Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, and Spencer Johnson. They have confirmed a core list of domestic players featuring Ali Khan, Nitish Roenick Kumar, Unmukt Chand, Corne Dry, Saif Badar, Adithya Ganesh, Matthew Tromp, and Shadley van Schwalyk.

Management named Jason Holder as their new skipper; however, he will miss the first two matches due to international commitments. In his absence, Sunil Narine, who led the side in the last two seasons, will captain the team in the first two matches. Sherfane Rutherford and Rovman Powell, who are part of the West Indies squad for the T20Is against Ireland, will also miss the first two matches.
