Made of bronze metal, the trophy's contemporary design pays tribute to the sport's past while reflecting Major League Cricket's progressive vision. Its dynamic shape captures the spirit of innovation and progress, symbolizing the growth and potential of cricket within the American landscape.
During the media conference, the spotlight was on the six team captains as they took the stage. The attending captains included international stars such as Kieron Pollard (MI New York), Sunil Narine (Los Angeles Knight Riders), Faf du Plessis (Texas Super Kings), Aaron Finch (San Francisco Unicorns), Wayne Parnell (Seattle Orcas), and Moises Henriques (Washington Freedom).
Engaging in a Q&A session with the media, the captains expressed their excitement and optimism for the tournament and its impact on cricket in the United States. They highlighted the opportunity to nurture local talent, promote the game, and inspire the next generation of players.
As the inaugural season of Major League Cricket commences, the league sets a significant milestone in the growth and development of cricket in America, as witnessed by the enthusiasm and anticipation surrounding the league's opening match.
