Washington Freedom vs MI New York Predictions


Earlier this season the Freedom pulled off a DLS win when the weather played to their benefit. MI New York’s power-packed bowling attack will be a big challenge to the Freedom. 

  • MI New York’s Monank Patel has scored 50 & 61 in his last 4 innings.
  • MI New York’s Nicholas Pooran has scored 27*, 62* & 44 in his last 5 innings.
  • Washington Freedom’s Travis Head has scored 76, 32* & 54 in his last 5 innings.
  • Washington Freedom’s Steven Smith has scored 46*, 26* & 42* in his last 4 innings.

Head-to-Head


The teams met twice last season, with MI New York winning both matches. They won the League clash by eight wickets and followed that by winning the Eliminator by 16 runs. This season in their earlier clash the Freedom won by four runs in a massively rain-reduced second innings.

Washington Freedom Form


The Freedom made it three wins out of three (one match abandoned) when they beat the Knight Riders by eight wickets.

The Knight Riders were bowled out for 129 with 10 balls of their innings remaining. Saurabh Netravalkar (4/35) made the early strikes and cleaned up the tail, while Glenn Maxwell (3/15) knocked over three of the top seven.

Travis Head (54 off 32 balls) smashed six sixes to get the innings off to a blistering start, leaving Steven Smith (42* off 36) to take the Freedom to the win with four overs to spare.

Washington Freedom Team News


Washington Freedom are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

MI New York Form


After the first match in their double-header against the Super Kings was rained-off, New York went down in the second match by 15 runs. 

The Super Kings posted 176/6 off their 20 overs, Trent Boult (2/48) and Rashid Khan (4-0-17-1, econ 4.25) starring with the ball.

New York crashed to 52/2 before Monank Patel (61 off 45 balls) and Rashid Khan (50 off 23 balls) adding 97 for the sixth wicket to keep their side in the hunt, but the target proved just too much for them.

MI New York Team News


MI New York needs their batting to step up a gear to ensure their bowlers have enough runs to work with.

Verdict

I am backing MI New York to win. I am also backing Monank Patel to top score for MI New York.

Travis Head is a good bet to top score for the Washington Freedom.
