Pre-Match Analysis:
Washington Freedom could have done better in the league stages with the kind of talent they had at their disposal but an 8-wicket loss in their final league game against MI New York forced them to finish in the 3rd spot in the standings with 6 points. A well-constructed 77 stand for the 4th wicket between Glenn Phillips and Moises Henriques guided them to a total of 160 however Kieron Pollard and his company ended their hopes of finishing in the top 2 spots with a mercy less hitting. Matthew Short and Saurabh Netravalkar are their leading run-scorer and top wicket-takers respectively in this competition.
Meanwhile, MI New York marginally missed out on the opportunity of playing in Qualifier 1 with mere 2 wickets loss over Seattle Orcas on Wednesday. A stunning unbeaten century from Heinrich Klaasen was enough to steal the game away from them. Adding to the insult, skipper Kieron Pollard has injured his shoulder on the field during their last game against Orcas and he is doubtful for the remainder of the tournament. With 2 wins and 3 losses, they finished 4th in the standings with 4 points. Nicholas Pooran is their man in form who averages 56.75 in this tournament
