2024

Despite some tough results in the initial games, MI New York refuse to throw in the towel, and qualify for the play-offs in the second season of the MLC, but sadly, cannot go all the way in defending their title.

Jasprit Bumrah stands out in what is otherwise a tough season for the team, finishing with 20 wickets as the third-highest wicket-taker in the league at a very impressive economy of 6.48!

Rohit Sharma – OUR HITMAN – clocks 200 games for Mumbai Indians

Kaptaan Kaur and her girls enjoy a solid run, finishing second in the league stage with five wins in eight matches, but alas, it ends in a heartbreak in the Eliminator.

The defence of our WPL crown begins with a repeat clash against the Delhi Capitals, and Sajana Sajeevan, on debut, walks in with MI needing five off the last ball to win. And on the very first ball she faces in the WPL, she steps out and tonks it deep into the stands!

2023

Welcome the inaugural MLC Champions – MI NEW YORK. Firsts are always special, and on the back of Nicholas Pooran’s iconic 55-ball 137 on the night of the final, MI New York conquered America, and brought home the silverware!

Surya-TON-sham! 605 runs in 16 games at a strike-rate of 181.13, Aapla Dada Suryakumar Yadav was in dream form through IPL 2023. Overall, the team has a good run, making it to the second Qualifier. Young stars like Akash Madhwal, who produced match figures of 5/5 in the Eliminator, and Tilak Varma, who rose up the ranks to join the Indian squad soon after the season, were unearthed.
