Due to his signing with the Texas Super Kings for the forthcoming season of the premier competition, star Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis is ready for a stint in Major League Cricket (MLC) season 2. The decision was made in response to Stoinis’ outstanding performance against the Chennai Super Kings while he was a member of the Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL 2024.
After hitting a scorching tonne in the just-finished IPL versus CSK, Marcus Stoinis will now be playing as an American wearing the same yellow shirt. Stoinis, who will turn 35 in August 2024, is a member of the Australia T20 World Cup 2024 team but is not under a central contract with Cricket Australia.
After participating in 14 IPL 2024 games, Marcus Stoinis scored 388 runs at an average of 32.33 while also claiming four wickets to cap off an incredible season for LSG. Stoinis, a star all-around player who played for the San Francisco Unicorns last season, will be playing in his second season in the MLC and will be eager to give it his all.
In any case, Stoinis will undoubtedly be the focus of a lot of eyeballs when the Texas Super Kings play the Los Angeles Knight Riders on July 5 to begin their MLC campaign. Furthermore, MLC season 2 will feature a number of Australian celebrities, like Travis Head, Glenn Maxwell, and Pat Cummins.
Concerning the same, MLC CEO Vijay Srinivasan recently spoke out, expressing how significant it is for the entire competition to have secured such well-known players as Glenn Maxwell and Pat Cummins.
“Picking a player of Pat Cummins’ calibre is a testament to the calibre of talent the league is drawing, highlighting our worldwide influence and the triumph of the inaugural season,” Cricbuzz cited Srinivasan as saying.
He continued, “It demonstrates our commitment to bringing the best players in the world to play in America’s very own league and elevates the level of competition fans will get to see and experience on home soil.”
