Afghanistan’s star all-rounder, Rashid Khan, illuminated the crowd at the Grand Prairie Stadium with a scintillating half-century for MI New York in their Major League Cricket (MLC) 2024 Eliminator clash against the Texas Super Kings.

Rashid, batting higher in the order? than usual, unleashed a barrage of powerful strokes during his 30-ball innings, amassing 55 runs. His explosive performance included a standout moment with an innovative shot that featured prominently in the highlights of the New York innings, which concluded at 163/8 in their 20 overs.

Rashid Khan’s unique stroke play

Rashid is well-known for his ability to replicate MS Dhoni’s signa?ture ‘helicopter�?shot, a swift aerial flick from near the off-stump to the on-side, often resulting in a six. However during the match, Rashid introduced a unique shot of?? himself.

Facing a delivery from pacer Aaron Hardie, Rashid innovatively adjusted his approach. On the last ball of the 17th over, with a delivery marginally short and outside off-stump, Rashid sat deep in his crease and, with a po?werful whip of his bat, sent the ball soaring over wide long-on for a spectacular six.

MI New York’s challenging start

New York’s innings got off to a rocky start after being asked to bat first by TSK. They lost opener Dewald Brevis for a duck and Nicholas Pooran for 8, both wickets falling inside t??he first four overs, l??eaving the team at a precarious 18 for 2.

Shayan Jahangir and Monank Patel then steadied the innings with a 39-run partnership before Dwayne Bravo disrupted it by dismissing Jahangir for 26 off 23 balls. Rashid then joined Patel, and although the duo added a promising 35 run?s, Patel was dismiss??ed by spinner Noor Ahmad for a well-made 48 off 41 balls.

Rashid’s impactful innings

Despite the interruptions, Rashid’s innings proved crucial. He counter-attacked with flair, hitting Bravo and Noor for boundaries, and scored two consecutive sixes off Hardie. His aggressive batting helped elevate the score to a competitive 163, though Romario Shepherd and New York’s captain, Kieron Pollard, contributed modestly. Rashid’s inni??ngs, characterized by 4 fours and 4 sixes, came at an impressive strike rate of 183.33. It marked the fourth time he has scored a fifty in T20 cricket.

Victory for the Texas Super Kings

In the second innings, despite a brief rain delay complicating conditions, Rashid delivered a disciplined spell of bowling. He was introduced in the fourth over and concede?d only four runs. Over his four-over spell, he maintained tight control, giving away just 22 runs.

Nevertheless, despite Rashid’s efforts, the Texas Kings chased down the target with ease. The leading run-scorer of the tournament, Faf du Plessis, continued his exceptional form, scoring another fifty and guid?ing TSK to a nine-wicket victory, thus winni?ng the crucial Eliminator game.

The 16th match of the Major League Cricket 2024 at Grand Prairie Stadium, Dallas, witnessed a moment of absolute comedic chaos that left the crowd in stitches. With the San Francisco Unicorns batting first, the drama unfolded during the over bowled by Mitchell Shepherd.

The hilarious mix-up between Pat Cummins and Corey Anderson

Faced with a testing off-speed short ball, Pat Cummins of? San Francisco Unicorns nudged it towards the left of the backward point. What transpired next defied logic and had everyone, from players to spectators, erupting in laughter.

Corey Anderson, the non-striker, completely misread the play. Assuming a single was on, he sprinted down the pitch, only to realize Cummins had barely dabbed the ball. Simultaneously, Cummins, perhaps momentarily caught off guard, also started running towards the wicketkeeper’s end.

The scene descended into a hilarious mix-up. Both batters, resembling startled deer caught in headlights, converged at the striker’s end. Panic ensued. The MI New York fielder, presented with a golden opportunity for a run-out, had a shy at the stumps. However, his throw lacked conviction, perhaps mirroring the overall befuddlement on the field.

Adding to the comedy of errors, the ever-alert Kieron Pollard, stationed near the crease for New York, attempted a desperate underarm flick towards the stumps. Unfortunately, Pollard’s throw mirrored the fielder’s effort – lacking direction and purpose.

The combined ineptitude of both sides left the bails undisturbed. Realizing the coast was clear, Anderson displayed a surprising burst of athleticism, diving full-length to regain his crease. Umpires signalled “no run,” and the laughter simmering throughout the sequence erupted in full force.

San Francisco emerged victorious against MI New York

The San Francisco Unicorns secured a thrilling 3-run victory over the?? defending champions MI New York in a dramatic encounter at Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas. This win not only confirms their playoff berth but also throws the qualification race wide open for the other teams.

The Unicorns were off to a shaky start, losing wickets in clusters. Left-handed Corey Anderson (59) steadied the ship with a fighting half-century, ably supported by a vital knock from Hassan Khan (44). Noshthush Kenjige (2-13) and Trent Bolt (2-35) were the p??ick of the MI New York bowlers, keeping the pressure on the Uni??corns throughout the innings.

MI New York’s chase started brightly with a well-paced fifty from Dewald Brevis (56). However, the middle order faltered, and the dismissal of Nicholas Pooran (26) put the brakes on the chase.

Matt Short‘s three wickets (3-27) and some disciplined bowling from Brody Crouch (2-27) kept MI New York in check. Despite a late surge from Heath Richards, MI, New York fell short by a ??narrow margin of 3 runs, their title defence hangi?ng by a thread.

Dewald Brevis hammers Matthew Short for a gigantic six

One of the key moments in the match was a six scored by Dewald Brevis off Matthew Short. This shot was significant as it came during a crucial phase of the match when New York needed to accelerate their scoring during the powerplay overs. Brevis, known for his aggressive batting, targeted the third over of the inning where, on the second ball, the right-handed batter picking up the length quickly rocks on the back foot and timed the shot perfectly against Short. The ball, slightly short in length, came onto Brevis’ bat, and he smashed the ball with his might towards long-on, soaring over the boundary for six runs.
