TEAMS PREVIEW

Carolina Eagles Preview

It was the clash of Eagles in the opening game of the United States Premier League season 2024. Carolina Eagles played their opening game of the season against the California Golden Eagles which Carolina Eagles lost by 29 runs. The match was played at the same venue as this game between Carolina Eagles and Maryland Mavericks.

Against California Golden Eagles, Carolina Eagles bowled first and allowed the opposition to get to 197 in 20 overs. It took them 14 overs to get the first wickets. The Carolina Eagles managed only 2 wickets - one each by Jake Ball and Yasir Saeed Mohammad.

Chasing 198, the Carolina Eagles started the innings well and were on course until 8th over. But they could not keep up the pace with the required run rate and could only score 168 for 6th and 20 overs. It was baffling to see that they did not go harder at the target given that they only lost 6 wickets in the end. Shayan Jahangir, the wicket-keeper (57 runs) and Raunaq Sharma (40 runs) were the top scorers for the Carolina Eagles. They need to come out of this defeat and go harder against the opposition in this game.

Maryland Mavericks Preview

Maryland Mavericks started the season with a big win over Atlanta Blackcaps. It was a low-scoring contest that Maryland Mavericks won by six wickets with three overs to spare. It is as comfortable as it gets and must boost the Maryland Mavericks' confidence many fold.

Maryland Mavericks won the toss and elected to bowl first against Atlanta Blackcaps. The Mavericks got success right away in the first over when Ehsan Adil removed Rakeem Conwell, the captain of Atlanta Blackcaps. They kept taking wickets at regular intervals and bundled out the Blackcaps for 128 with an over to spare. Ehsan Adil was the peak of the bowlers with 5 wickets for 23 runs in 4 overs.

Chasing a small total, Maryland Mavericks started confidently in the power play. Three of their top four batters got starts, but got out. They were 87-4 in the 13th over, but Shubham Ranjane and Sujit Nayak made sure there were no more wickets, and Mavericks won by a comfortable 6-wicket with 18 balls to spare. The Mavericks would look to build on this big win and stay in the top half of the table.

Key players: Dwayne Smith, Shubham Ranjane, Ehsan Adil

Dwayne Smith, Saiteja Mukkamalla, Neil Broom, Nitish Kumar, Shubham Ranjane, Sujit Nayak, Shreyas Movva (wk), Kevin Stoute, Ehsan Adil, Rushil Ugarkar, Saad Bin Zafar, Phani Simhadri
