New Delhi: MI Global on Friday announced the captains for MI Emirates and MI Cape Town stating that West Indies cricketer Kieron Pollard and Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan will take over the captain’s duties, respectively.
Mumbai Indians went global with the addition of teams in the T20 cricketing leagues of South Africa and UAE earlier this year.
The new members of Mumbai Indians ‘One Family’, MI Emirates, and MI Cape Town are set to debut in their inaugural seasons in January 2023, an official statement said on Friday.
Both teams feature some of the best players from across global cricket and will look to replicate the Mumbai Indians’ ethos and focus that has helped it be one of the most successful franchises in global cricket.
“We’re extremely pleased to announce our captains for our extended MI Global one family for the cricketing season 2023. We have an amazing mix of talent, experience, and passion in both our captains. I’m convinced that Polly and Rashid will take forward the MI ethos and MI brand of cricket,” said Akash Ambani in an official statement.
The full match schedule of 33 matches to be played at six venues across the country was announced on Tuesday, with only two months to go until the start of South Africa’s premier T20 league.
