The 25th match of MLC 2025 promises to be a blockbuster as two of the table-toppers, San Francisco Unicorns (SFU) and Texas Super Kings (TEX), go head-to-head in a clash that could decide the top spot. Both teams have been outstanding this season, each registering six wins from eight matches, and enter the contest with strong momentum.
San Francisco have looked well-balanced and dominant, currently sitting at the top of the table due to a superior net run rate. Their batting has been powered by the in-form Matthew Short, whose aggressive starts have laid the platform for big totals. With a reliable bowling unit backing them, the Unicorns have emerged as serious title contenders.
Texas Super Kings, led by the experienced Faf du Plessis, have matched that brilliance. The skipper himself has led from the front, already smashing two centuries in the tournament. With a power-packed batting line-up and depth in experience, Texas remain a major threat.

The pitch at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida, typically offers favorable conditions for batting throughout the match. Under floodlights, the ball comes onto the bat smoothly, enabling stroke-makers to play with freedom. Fast bowlers may find some early movement with the new ball, but as dew settles later in the game, batting conditions generally improve, making it harder for bowlers to maintain control.
