Major League will be the latest franchise league to feature a team owned by the Mumbai Indians brand. Earlier this year, the inaugural season of the SA20 included MI Cape Town, captained by Rashid Khan, who played for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023, and with several other Mumbai Indians’ regulars.

The MI New York edition will be no different, with Rashid again set to appear in the side. Kieron Pollard is another one of the original Mumbai side to sign with the New York chapter, along with Jason Behrendorff, Tim David and Dewald Brevis. Joining them as overseas stars will be New Zealand pace icon Trent Boult, West Indies’ Nicholas Pooran and South Africa’s Kagiso Rabada and David Wiese.

MI NY have also named their squad of nine domestic players for 2023 but, like all the other squads, their wildcard pick is still to be confirmed.

The tournament will begin on June 13 and will run until June 30, when the final will be played at Grand Prairie Stadium in North Texas. The six teams in the tournament will compete in a round-robin style group stage before the top four proceed to the knockout stages.
