MI New York – Kieron Pollard
MI New York have announced Caribbean legend Kieron Pollard as their captain for this season. Pollard has been a loyal warrior for MI over the years and the veteran all-rounder is set to blitz for the New York outfit.
Washington Freedom – Moises Henriques
Another Australian Moises Henriques is going to lead Washington Freedom in the MLC 2023. The Aussie has been successful as the captain of Sydney Sixers in the Big Bash League.
The 36-year-old has also played for the likes of Kolkata Knight Riders, Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL.
Los Angeles Knight Riders – Sunil Narine
LA Knight Riders announced Sunil Narine as their captain for the inaugural MLC season. The mystery spinner/all-rounder will be hoping for a better outing as captain after the underwhelming season with Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in the ILT20.
