In its most new acquisition bid, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) team acquired the Texas team in Major League Cricket in the United States. The brand tweeted about its latest acquisition.
CSK sent a cryptic message on social media on Saturday that read, Major announcement soon. Howdy Texas! Show some yellove to our NRI cousin, @TeamTexasMLC!"
The news breaks just one day before the MLC Domestic Player Draft, which will be held in Houston and include more than 100 players who are eligible to compete for the "USA cricket community" in the competition. The six teams competing in the tournament are San Francisco Unicorns, Los Angeles, New York, Seattle Orcas, Texas, and Washington, D.C. This year's competition is set to start on July 13.
While Indian Premier League teams seek to broaden their reach internationally, Delhi Capitals have purchased a stake in the Seattle franchise of a brand-new Twenty20 competition in the United States.
In order to manage Seattle Orcas in Major League Cricket (MLC), which kicks up in July, Delhi Capitals co-owner GMR Group has teamed up with a group of investors that includes Microsoft Corp. CEO Satya Nadella, who was born in India.
The top T20 cricket players from all over the world will make up the remaining player rosters for each team, according to a statement released by MLC on Friday.
A report in Espncricinfo on March 16, 2023 had said that Kolkata Knight Riders had taken charge of the Los Angeles franchise, while Mumbai Indians will run the New York franchise on their own.
Seattle Orcas and another IPL team, Delhi Capitals, which is co-owned by the GMR Group, will collaborate to "help establish and operate a world-class cricket team," according to an announcement made by MLC on Friday.
