Washington Freedom narrowly defeated the Seattle Orcas by five wickets in a tight, low-scoring match of the 2024 Cognizant Major League Cricket at Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas on Thursday.
Ferguson and Netravalkar each dismissed an opener during the powerplay, putting the Orcas on the back foot. Despite losing partners who got starts, Klaasen held the innings together at one end. Ferguson ended Quinton de Kock's innings at 24 and then removed both Imad Wasim and Hammad Azam in the same over. Meanwhile, Marco Jansen, Klaasen's South African teammate, dismissed Klaasen, and Netravalkar cleaned up the tail with a couple of wickets.
Earlier in the game, the Seattle Orcas began their innings on a shaky note. Nauman Anwar was dismissed for just 3 runs off 9 balls by Saurabh Netravalkar in the second over. The Orcas' batters found it difficult to speed up their scoring on the slow pitch, accumulating only 35 runs during the Powerplay. Ryan Rickelton was also dismissed for 4 off 11 balls by Lockie Ferguson in the sixth over.
