But then came a solid partnership between Shayan Jahangir and Aaron Jones. They added 119 runs off just 67 balls for the second wicket to take the MLC 2025 game away from LAKR. Aaron Jones was in top form, smashing 73 runs off 38 balls with 10 fours and 2 sixes.
However, things turned tense again when the Orcas lost three quick wickets, including Heinrich Klaasen for just 5. But Shimron Hetmyer, fresh off a brilliant knock of 97 runs the previous night, played another match-winning knock of 64 not out from just 26 balls.
I’m really happy where my game is at: Shimron Hetmyer
Earlier, LAKR posted 202/4 in their 20 overs. Andre Russell led the charge with a fiery unbeaten 65 off 39 balls, hitting 6 fours and 4 sixes. Saif Babar (41) and Rovman Powell (43*) also chipped in with useful knocks. For Seattle, Waqar Salamkheil stood out with the ball, taking two important wickets in this MLC 2025 clash in Dallas.
After winning the Player of the Match award, Shimron Hetmyer said, “Tired. Very, very tired. But I am thankful that we could get across the line and continue to do so. I go back to prayers; my wife and Ipray a lot before the game. Once we have a decent enough start, it makes it easier for the guys lower down. Actually, I’m really happy where my game is at. My leg is a little bit of a worry, but I will get it looked at.”
