MLC 2026: Match 28, SEA vs SF Match Prediction – Who will win today’s MLC match between Seattle Orcas vs San Francisco Unicorns?

Seattle Orcas (SEA) will take on San Francisco Unicorns (SF) in Match No. 28 of the Major League Cricket (MLC) 2026 at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas on Sunday, July 12.

Seattle Orcas are currently placed fourth in the points table with four wins from nine matches. They have shown flashes of brilliance throughout the tournament but have lacked consistency.

Meanwhile, San Francisco Unicorns occupy the top spot in the standings with five wins in nine matches. Despite suffering a few setbacks in recent games, the Unicorns remain one of the strongest teams in the competition and will be aiming to consolidate their position with another important victory.

The surface at Grand Prairie Stadium has generally been batting-friendly, with plenty of runs on offer for the top-order batters. Fast bowlers can extract some movement with the new ball, but once the batters settle in, stroke-making becomes easier. Chasing teams have enjoyed success at this venue, making the toss an important factor.

Lhuan-dre Pretorius(w), Finn Allen, Matthew Short(c), Sanjay Krishnamurthi, Aaron Hardie, Hassan Khan, Hammad Azam, Ghulam Mudassar, Xavier Bartlett, Brody Couch, Haris Rauf

Tim Seifert could be the key batter in this contest. The New Zealand wicketkeeper-batter has been in excellent form this season, scoring 370 runs in nine innings at a strike rate of 160.87. His explosive starts at the top will be crucial if Seattle are to register a vital win.

Haris Rauf could be the standout bowler in this clash. The experienced Pakistan pacer has consistently troubled batters with his pace and bounce. If he strikes early with the new ball, Rauf could put Seattle's batting lineup under immense pressure and play a decisive role in San Francisco's campaign.
