In the 4th match of the intense Major League Cricket (MLC) 2025, Seattle Orcas (SEA) are set to take on Washington Freedom (WAS) in what promises to be an exciting clash at the Oakland Coliseum in California.
Seattle, captained by former South African player Heinrich Klaasen, looks stronger on paper with several seasoned T20 campaigners. With the experience of David Warner and Sikandar Raza, the side will be eager to keep their winning momentum. In the bowling department, Fazalhaq Farooqi and Obed McCoy will be key figures, expected to lead the attack with pace and precision.
Meanwhile, Freedom are one of the strongest contenders for the title this season. With a star-studded lineup featuring the likes of Glenn Maxwell and Glenn Phillips, they bring explosive power and depth to both batting and bowling units. Add in the consistency of their middle order and a sharp bowling attack led by international talent, the Freedom look well-balanced and dangerous.

Oakland Coliseum Pitch Report:
The Oakland Coliseum, primarily known for hosting baseball, has been newly adapted to stage cricket for the first time. Although comprehensive data on the conditions is scarce, initial assessments indicate that the pitch should provide a fair contest between bat and ball. The surface is expected to be hard, offering good pace and bounce to assist fast bowlers early on. However, the expansive outfield and consistent grass coverage mean that batters could capitalize once they get set. As the match progresses and the pitch begins to wear, spinners are likely to become more influential, particularly in the latter stages of the innings.
