The MLC, the first ever professional franchise cricket league in the USA, will begin on July 13 at the Grand Prairie stadium in North Texas. Grand Prairie will host the first eight matches before Church Street Park, North Carolina, takes the middle block of matches.
The competition will then return to Grand Prairie for the knockout stages, which contain four matches. In the first game of the tournament, hosts Texas Super Kings will take on the Los Angeles Knight Riders at the 7,200 stadium near Dallas, with some players drawn from the Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders sisters squads.
The tournament will last just over two weeks, coming to an end with the grand final on July 30 at Grand Prairie Stadium.
