The fourth season of Major League Cricket (MLC 2026) is set to light up the United States from June 18 to July 18, 2026, bringing a thrilling calendar of 34 T20 matches to cricket fans. This high-octane tournament showcases six powerhouse franchises, four of which share deep-rooted DNA and backing from prominent Indian Premier League (IPL) ownership groups.

Defending champions and elite squads like MI New York, Los Angeles Knight Riders, Texas Super Kings, Seattle Orcas, Washington Freedom, and San Francisco Unicorns are stacked with a dazzling mix of international icons and local American talent. Global superstars and captains such as Nicholas Pooran, Jason Holder, Steve Smith, Faf du Plessis, Matthew Short, and Marcus Stoinis will lock horns in an intense month-long battle for supremacy.

Adding to the grandeur of the 2026 edition, the tournament expands its footprint across three premier American venues. Matches will electrify crowds at the established Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas, alongside two exciting additions in California: the Oakland Coliseum (which will host the championship final) and the newly developed Knight Riders Cricket Field at Fairplex in Pomona. Combining world-class cricket infrastructure with elite athletic rivalries, MLC 2026 promises to anchor the sport’s rapid, historic ascent in the North American sporting landscape.
