MLC 2025 Thriller: Texas Super Kings Edge Out MI New York by 3 Runs in a Nail-Biter If Finn Allen's 151 made the MLC 2025 opener unforgettable, the second game of the season was every bit as gripping—a back-and-forth contest between Texas Super Kings (TSK) and MI New York (MINY) that went right down to the final ball. 🏏 Match Summary TSK: 185/6 (20 overs) Devon Conway – 66 (44) Calvin Savage – 53* (34) Michael Bracewell – 2 wickets MINY: 182/8 (20 overs) Monank Patel – 52 (33) Michael Bracewell – 41 (25) Daryl Mitchell – brilliant final over (1-29 overall) 🧨 Key Moments 🔁 TSK Innings After an unstable start, Conway and Savage's 79-run stand powered TSK to a competitive 185. Conway scored his fifty off 35 balls; Savage remained unbeaten, finishing with a flurry to reach 53. 110 of TSK’s 185 came in boundaries (including 9 sixes between Conway and Savage). Michael Bracewell picked up 2 wickets but was also taken for runs at the death. 🎯 MINY Chase Nightmare Powerplay: 32/3 with de Kock, Pooran, and Agni Chopra gone cheaply. Monank Patel (52 off 33) and Bracewell (41 off 25) rebuilt with calculated aggression: Scoring accelerated between overs 8–13: 73 runs in 5 overs. At one stage, MINY needed just 27 off 20 with 6 wickets in hand. 🧤 Turning Point Bracewell smashed a short ball from Milne, but Faf du Plessis plucked a one-handed screamer at wide mid-off. That wicket opened the door for TSK’s comeback. 🧊 Daryl Mitchell’s Ice-Cold Final Over With 8 needed off the last over and MINY down to their tail: Mitchell bowled a clutch set of yorkers and slower balls. Only 5 runs came from the over, sealing a 3-run win. Tajinder Singh and Naveen-ul-Haq couldn’t find the boundary. 🗣️ What It Means Texas Super Kings showcased experience and composure in high-pressure moments, notably Mitchell’s final over and du Plessis' brilliance in the field. MINY will rue their middle-order collapse and inability to finish, despite controlling much of the chase. 🔮 Next Up If the first two MLC 2025 games are any indication, this season could deliver one of the most thrilling T20 leagues outside the IPL. Keep your eyes on Finn Allen, Monank Patel, and Calvin Savage—new names making a serious impact. Texas Super Kings 185 for 6 (Conway 66, Savage 53*, Bracewell 2-34) beat MI New York 182 for 8 (Monank 62, Bracewell 38, Pollard 32, Milne 3-22) by three runs
