On the 13th of July, the first season of Major League Cricket will start. It will be an important event because the success of this league will have a big impact on the growth of cricket in the USA. Hence, it was not a surprise that a few IPL teams invested here. Chennai Super Kings owners have a franchise named Texas Super Kings for this competition. Here, we predict the strongest playing XI for CSK’s Texas Super Kings for MLC 2023. Please note that each side can have a maximum of 6 foreign players.
Openers: Faf du Plessis(C) and Devon Conway (WK)
Arguably the best overseas batters of IPL 2023, Faf and Conway would together play for TSK in MLC 2023. It is a major coup and these two might finish games on their own in a few matches. Additionally, while Faf will lead the squad, Conway is likely to don the gloves for the side.
Middle-Order: Sami Aslam, Milind Kumar and David Miller
David Miller will be a key component in the middle-order of the strongest playing XI for CSK’s Texas Super Kings for MLC 2023. TSK could have a few problems here. That said, Sami Aslam has the experience of playing for Pakistan while Milind Kumar has been in the IPL before. Hence, the management would back this group.
All-Rounders: Daniel Sams, Calvin Savage and Mitchell Santner
Dwayne Bravo is also available but if you consider the current form, Sams and Santner would be better for the squad. They would add better balance to the unit. Sams could also be promoted up the order based on the situation. Santner will lead the spin attack for this side in the competition.
Bowlers: Zia Shahzad, Rusty Theron and Gerald Coetzee
Gerald Coetzee will lead the spin attack for this strongest playing XI for CSK‘s Texas Super Kings for MLC 2023. Zia Shahzad will support Santner in the spin department. Rusty Theron will be the experience pacer while Coetzee will hold the most important role in the bowling line-up.
