TSK vs SEO, MLC 2026: The fourth season of Major League Cricket (MLC) 2026 will kick-off with the Texas Super Kings taking on the Seattle Orcas on June 19, Friday at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas, Texas. Both sides are loaded with some of the most elite T20 cricketers and will look to open their campaign on a winning note.
Seattle Orcas has had three captaincy changes since the start of the 2025 edition. Heinrich Klaasen was initially the skipper before stepping down to hand over the reins to Sikandar Raza. With Raza no longer in their ranks, Marcus Stoinis has been appointed as the skipper. With the likes of Shimron Hetmyer, Dasun Shanaka and Tim Seifert in their ranks, the Orcas have a dynamic batting unit. The likes of Otteneil Baartman, Lutho Sipamla and Tanveer Sangha offer Stoinis some exciting bowling options.
Meanwhile, the Super Kings have been quite underwhelming in the three seasons so far and are yet to win the title or even reach the final. Led by the veteran Faf du Plessis, the Yellow Army appear to be slightly thin on batting but still have fearsome strikers like Donovan Ferreira and the experienced Rilee Rossouw. Nevertheless, Du Plessis has plenty of options in the bowling unit, with Akeal Hosein, Nandre Burger, Keshav Maharaj and Adam Milne at his disposal.
