Mumbai Indians New York stand-in captain Nicholas Pooran hit a blistering hundred off just 40 balls in the Major League Cricket (MLC) 2023 final against the Seattle Orcas at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas on Sunday.
During MI`s 184-run chase for their inaugural MLC title, Pooran walked in at number three in the first over after opener Steven Taylor fell for a three-ball duck. Taking matters in his own hands, the 27-year-old slammed a 16-ball half-century in no time and continued his batting onslaught with maximums. In the process, he became the second batter to score a hundred in the tournament.
