**Unicorns Gallop Ahead, MI New York Stumbling in MLC 2025**

**Dallas, TX –** The San Francisco Unicorns are the team to beat in Major League Cricket (MLC) 2025, emerging as the only undefeated franchise after a dominant start to the season. They head into a crucial clash against MI New York on Monday, June 23rd, at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas, brimming with confidence after crushing opponents in three of their four games and narrowly defeating MINY a week ago.

The Unicorns have been firing on all cylinders, with star batsman Finn Allen topping the run-scoring charts with 247 runs and Haris Rauf leading the wicket-takers with 11 scalps. Their overseas stars including Jake Fraser-McGurk are also contributing heavily, while domestic talents like Sanjay Krishnamurthi and Hassan Khan have been pivotal in their success. Even the absence of captain Corey Anderson due to injury hasn’t slowed their momentum.

In stark contrast, defending champions MI New York are struggling. They currently cling to fourth place based on net run rate, managing only one win in their four matches. While individual batsmen have shown flashes of brilliance, a collective performance has eluded them, with captain Nicholas Pooran yet to find his form. Their bowling attack has also been a major concern, with every bowler conceding runs at over 8 runs per over. Veteran Nosthush Kenjige is yet to feature for the side. The inform Naveen-ul-Haq has been their best bowler with 11 wickets.

MI New York will look to reshuffle their bowling attack for the match against the Unicorns. Ehsan Adil could replace Rushil Ugarkar and Kenjige might be brought in for Sunny Patel.
