Seattle Orcas (SEA) will clash against San Francisco Unicorns (SF) in Match 13 of the Major League Cricket (MLC 2024), at Church Street Park in Morrisville, on July 16. Orcas are currently reeling at the bottom of the points table with one win in three games and a negative Net Run Rate of 1.007. On the other hand, San Francisco holds the fourth position and has won one game in three matches, with a negative NRR of 0.631.

Orcas are coming off a five-wicket-defeat against table-toppers Washington Freedom. The side will look to bounce back in the coming game and go ahead on the points table. Meanwhile, Unicorns won their first game of the tournament and lost their second game to Texas Super Kings. With their last game being washed out, the side is in desperate need of a victory. 

Match Details 

Pitch Report

The Morrisville pitch seems to retain its nature throughout a 20-over match. However, a key concern is the batting tempo in the second innings, as the ball’s pace slows down upon hitting the surface. This gives bowlers an advantage, allowing them to capitalize on uneven bounce. Given these conditions, teams might be better off setting reasonable targets instead of pushing for extremely high scores. The team that wins the toss will look to bowl first.

Probable Best Batter of the Match

Ryan Rickelton could be the best batter in the upcoming match against the San Francisco-based franchise. The South African wicketkeeper-batter has played two games in the completion so far and scored an unbeaten century in the first game against Washington Freedom. With the ability to give his side a solid start, the 28-year-old can trouble the opposition bowlers and take his team to a comfortable position single-handedly.
