Washington Freedom vs MI New York Team Preview

Washington Freedom

Washington Freedom had been on a roll prior to their match against MI New York last Sunday. They will need to improve their performance in order to win this game and remain in the tournament.

After winning three consecutive games, it was no surprise that the same starting XI was named for Washington Freedom’s final group stage encounter versus MI New York. Despite being soundly defeated by MI New York, we anticipate seeing the same starting lineup in this match.    

MI New York

MI New York lost a close encounter on Tuesday after winning two of their previous three matches by wide margins. They had already defeated Washington Freedom in the competition and will be confident of winning again.

Kagiso Rabada, South Africa’s right-arm fast bowler, has missed the last two matches and is unlikely to play in this game. With Rabada out, David Wiese plays an important role in the bowling attack and will be back in the lineup.

In Dallas, all but one of the eight group-stage games were won by the side batting first. In this Eliminator, we anticipate that both captains will choose to bat first.

This match will have a mix of cloud cover and bright periods. There will be no rain, and the humidity level will not exceed 45%.

The Grand Prairie Stadium has a good batting wicket. To be competitive, whichever team bats first must score at least 185 runs.
