<p>The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Cricket">Major League Cricket</a>, MLC 2024 is knocking at the doorstep, as the second edition of the tournament begins on Saturday. With its inaugural season played in 2023, the MI New York were the standout performers in the league and went on to be the champions under skipper Nick Pooran, who played a stunning hand in their title victory. <br> <br>With some very crucial signings, especially with the drafting of several Australian maestros ahead of the 2nd edition, the MLC will be a contest worth witnessing. <br> <br>With a new set of players, along with the retained players from the first season, let?s take a look at the Top 5 batters who stand a chance to score the highest runs ahead of MLC 2024.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#top-5-batters-who-stand-a-chance-to-score-the-highest-runs-ahead-of-mlc-2024">Top 5 batters who stand a chance to score the highest runs ahead of MLC 2024</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#marcus-stoinis">Marcus Stoinis</a></li><li class=""><a href="#quinton-de-kock">Quinton de Kock</a></li><li class=""><a href="#j-fraser-mc-gurk">J.Fraser-McGurk</a></li><li class=""><a href="#nicholas-pooran">Nicholas Pooran</a></li><li class=""><a href="#travis-head">Travis Head</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="marcus-stoinis">Marcus Stoinis</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/Marcus-Stoinis.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-142366" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Stoinis roped in by Texas Super Kings for MLC 2024 (image: CricTracker)</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p>The Texas Super Kings have drafted the big Australian for their 2024 MLC campaign. The last time semifinalists had already had quite some spectacular performers in their team sheets, while Stoinis will be an in-form inclusion to the side. <br> <br>The big Australian was a commanding performer in the Indian Premier League and also performed overwhelmingly for his national side in the T20 World Cup. Stoinis, who has evolved to be a middle-order batter, letting go of his role as a finisher has helped sides retain him, and his evolving bowling skills are a cherry on top.  </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="quinton-de-kock">Quinton de Kock</h3>



<p>The South African veteran, who announced his retirement from the Tests and ODIs, has been a constant surprise in the shortest format of the game. He has been a part of every global T20 league since he stopped featuring for the Proteas. <br> <br>Playing for the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Orcas">Seattle Orcas</a>, QDK scored 264 runs, averaging a brilliant 44 in the 7 games of the tournament. He is one of the most worthy retentions of the MLC 2024, and his contributions are supposed to be of great value to his team. In short, the veteran can once again be found among the top scorers of the league.  </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="j-fraser-mc-gurk">J.Fraser-McGurk</h3>



<p>The hard-hitting youngster from Australia is now gaining the status of a world-class T20 batter due to his fearless stride and fast run-scoring in the powerplay, for which he has often received praise and recognition from players around the world. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/Fraser-McGurk.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-142364" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IPL done, MLC next on the cards for young McGurk (Image: Cricket Australia)</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p><br> <br>Featuring for the Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2024, McGurk was one of the very reasons the Capitals bounced back in the later stages of the competition. Though he was not the most consistent performer, he added fire to the innings whenever he got going in the powerplay. <br>Such will be his role, as the 21-year-old is about to make his debut in yet another league featuring players of global standard. Picked by the San Francisco Unicorns, McGruk will be most probably seen alongside Finn Allen, and together they can be the most explosive opening pair of MLC 2024. </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="nicholas-pooran">Nicholas Pooran</h3>



<p>The West Indies wk-bat has been a constant performer over the recent few years, in whichever league he has played in. From playing in the IPL for Lucknow Super Giants to making vital contributions to his team?s score in the T20 World Cup, Pooran is one of the most reliable batters to keep your cards on. <br> <br>The small-packet dynamite is often seen hitting massive sixes; it was his blistering knock of 137 runs on just 55 balls that included 13 sixes, which took MI New York over the line, and they went on to be the champions of the debut season. Not only MI New York but the entire cricket world would hope to witness such brilliance from the Windies batter.  </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="travis-head">Travis Head</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/Travis-Head-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-142363" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Head all set to feature for Washington Freedom (Image: Times of India)</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p>The Washington Freedom have reformed their squad with several inclusions, especially from Australia and New Zealand. They named Steven Smith the captain, alongside drafting players like Travis Head, Glenn Maxwell, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachin_Ravindra">Rachin Ravindra</a>, and Lockie Ferguson. <br> <br>Head has been the proclaimed best batter in the world since his heroics in the World Cup final for Australia last year. Head?s century earned immense recognition for him, and he went on to feature for IPL runner-up Sunrisers Hyderabad and was their highest scorer, scoring above 550 runs. <br> <br>His inclusion in the MLC can only add a great batting scope to the Freedom squad as well as the Major League Cricket. He can be the first choice to be the most probable highest run-getter in this edition of the MLC.<br></p>

<p>The Major League Cricket, or MLC, is one of America's biggest tournaments of the sport. Inaugurated in 2023, the first season saw 6 teams in the competition who will also participate in the 2nd edition of the league in 2024. <br> <br>The inaugural season saw many twists on their route to the finals, as the group stages featured 6 teams, of which the MI New York were ranked fourth behind the Seattle Orcas, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Freedom_(cricket)">Washington Fire</a>, and Texas Super Kings, all of which advanced into the knockouts in the first season. <br> <br>However, then began MI New York?s one-sided domination of the MLC knockouts, as they won on 3 occasions till the finals, where Pooran dominated against the Seattle Orcas side, who were unbeaten till the finals but had to bow down their heads in front of Pooran?s heroic antics. <br> <br>With several changes in the squads of different teams of the Major League Cricket, let?s have a good look at who can be the probable contenders for the cup. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="mi-new-york">MI New York</h3>



<p>With not many changes to their squad from their last year?s campaign, the defending champions can be one of the favorites to retain their grip over the trophy. Under Kieron Pollard?s leadership, once again, MI New York will be seen as the prime contender for the cup. <br> <br>A stunning bunch of batters, including Nicholas Pooran, Tim David, the USA skipper Monank Patel, and skipper Pollard. However, the power-packed side lays its heart in the all-rounders, who are world-class talents featuring in all global leagues of the world. With the likes of Romario Shepherd and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rashid_Khan">Rashid Khan</a>, MI New York will have the best probable bowling lineup of the tournament that comprises Rabada, Boult, and Nortje?s brilliance and experience. </p>

</figure>



<p><br> <br>With the Afghan skipper having led his national side to their first-ever semi-final just weeks ago, the beginning of the MLC, he will be their most dependable option to look at in their quest for defending the title. </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="seattle-orcas">Seattle Orcas</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/Seattle-Orcas-1024x534.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-142427" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">The runners-up will be looking forward to win the title this time (Image: Cricket Times)</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p>The runners-up from the last season of the MLC will look to fancy their chances at the title this time around. The runners-up too did not make many changes to the squad, as the team would still rely on South African batters Quinton de Kock and Henrich Klaasen. <br> <br>The two veteran batters are informed without any doubt, while Aaron Jones will be an equally convincing addition alongside all-rounders Imad Wasim and Bracewell, who are all set to feature for the first time in the MLC. <br>With the likes of Burger and McCoy in the Seattle lineup led by the experience of Wayne Parnell, the Seattle Orcas might look to have another terrific run in the tournament just like the edition of MLC 2023. </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="san-francisco-unicorns">San Francisco Unicorns </h3>



<p>The Unicorns did not have the best of starts to their MLC legacy, as they failed to advance into the knockouts of the MLC 2024. However, with several additions to the squad, they are a new unit and may look forward to turning their fortunes in the Cup. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/Cummins-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-142428" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">San Francisco Unicorns robe in Cummins for the MLC 2024 (Image: Sportstar - The Hindu)</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p><br> <br>Despite the inclusion of Australian ODI and test captain Pat Cummins, Corey Anderson has been picked to serve the role of a skipper for the San Francisco Unicorns. A very worthy and power-packed batting unit that is all set to fire with the in-form Allen, Fraser McGurk, and Rutherford. All three will be seen giving their bests alongside Short and Inglis, who are also about to make their debut in the competition. <br> <br>Cummins will lead their bowling unit alongside Haris Rauf and Matt Henry, and owing to the pitches of the United States, these bowlers who produce immense variations can be an asset in the Cup for the side. They led by Anderson and guided by Cummins will look to go beyond teams like the Washington Freedom and the Texas Super Kings, who, despite having a great bunch of players, might not have the quality to advance into the knockouts of the game.</p>

<p>The MLC 2024 is all set to be underway from tomorrow, and the two finalists of the inaugural season, the MI New York and Seattle Orcas, will play the opening match of the second season. The Major League Cricket is one of the major cricket tournaments started in the United States. <br> <br>The first match will be played on the 6th of July at Church Street Park in Morrisville. The defending champions will be looking to defend their title against the runner-up Orcas, who might also be eyeing to avenge their loss in the finals of MLC 2023. <br> <br>Before the initiation of the first match, let?s take a good look at the top 5 inclusions from among players of either side who can be predicted to be the most essential players to change the course of the game. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="quinton-de-kock">Quinton De Kock</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/QDK-for-MLC-2024-jpg.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-142509" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">QDK for Seattle Orcas in MLC (Image: SportsMax)</figcaption></figure>
</figure>



<p>The veteran South African batter?s international career is now at a standstill, as no one knows if he will be seen further in the Protea shirt. QDK played a great hand in South Africa?s success in the recently concluded T20 World Cup. <br> <br>The opening batsman and the highest scorer for the Seattle Orcas in the opening season will be leading the Seattle Orcas batting with his commanding form and immense experience. De Kock has had a great experience playing across several global leagues from around the world.  </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="nicholas-pooran">Nicholas Pooran </h3>



<p>The West Indian pocket dynamite has been a great inclusion among cricket franchises around several global leagues. After concluding a brilliant season with the Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024, he tried with all his might to provide his national side stability in the middle order. <br> <br>Pooran?s antics will be expected in this season as well, as MINY will hope for his competence to lead them to their title defence. Pooran's unforgettable innings in the MLC 2023 final will remain to be written in golden words in the history of the tournament, as he single-handedly guided MI New York to a win in the inaugural season.  </p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped">

</figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="trent-boult">Trent Boult </h3>



<p>The legendary Kiwi pacer has been an asset to all franchise teams; he has represented several teams across global tournaments. Boult, who has recently concluded his international career, has had a wonderful season with the Royals and showed dominance in the few games New Zealand played in the T20 World Cup. </p>



<p>Boult under the pace-favoring pitches of America will be an asset for the side. He will be once again given the role of a bowler with the new ball, as he often has this ability to strike with the new ball.  </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="rashid-khan">Rashid Khan </h3>



<p>The Afghan skipper led by example, as he guided Afghanistan to their first-ever semi-final in a major ICC tournament. The skipper led from the front with 14 wickets in 8 games for his national side, though they crashed out of the semis against South Africa. <br> <br>The spinner, aged 25, has been a star in the cricketing world as he has picked over 588 wickets in T20 leagues around the world. With expecting similar contributions from the Afghan skipper, the MI New York will look to place him as their first-choice all-rounder, with his slight expertise with the bat as well.  </p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="anrich-nortje">Anrich Nortje </h3>



<p>Nortje has been a real star in Protea's success at the T20 World Cup in the United States. The star pacer bowled to the conditions, which are not to change much in the States when MI New York takes on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Orcas">Seattle Orcas</a>. </p>



<p>Nortje will feature alongside countrymate Rabada, and T20 veterans like Boult, and all-rounders Rashid and Shepherd. Playing alongside these greats of the game will add to his form, and his prolific form will only be enhanced in the MLC 2024 at the star-studded MI New York dugout.<br></p>
