Cricket fans, hold on tight! The 23rd match of the Major League Cricket 2025 season is set to be a big battle between the Texas Super Kings (TSK) and Washington Freedom (WSF). Normally, credit is given to batters, but bowlers can change the course of games. So, today, we are looking at the key bowlers who may steal the spotlight (and the game). Let’s look at the stats to find out which pacer you would want to watch in this thrilling TSK vs. WSF match.
Noor Ahmad: TSK

The first player to look at is Noor Ahmad from the Texas Super Kings. His stats show that he has made an impact. Noor has played 10 matches this season, taking 16 wickets now, but there’s more than just wickets — it’s how he’s taken them. Noor has an economy of 8.1 while getting them at a strike rate of just 15 balls per wicket. Noor is the type of bowler who flies under the radar but manages to take vital wickets at crucial times. Noor’s enforced tight overs in the middle overs allow batsmen to feel the pressure, which leads them to take the risk of playing their shots. If TSK manages to stifle WSF’s run-rate and continues to take wickets, the man to watch is Noor Ahmad.
Adam Milne: TSK

Next, we have the Texas Super Kings pacer, Adam Milne. Milne is fast, while also having some seriously incredible bouncers. Milne has a record of 9 wickets in 4 matches with an impressive economy rate of 6.78, whilst his strike rate is a really good 9.44 balls per wicket. Milne is an out-and-out wicket-taker and can alter the game state in the course of a couple of deliveries. Milne often gets wickets early, sparking momentum breaks for partners, particularly during the powerplay. When Milne is at full capacity, expect the WSF batters to be on the back foot and scrambling to regain control of their innings.
Mitchell Owen: WSF

Mitchell Owen has emerged as the leading bowling force for the Washington Freedom camp. With 7 matches played, Owen has taken 14 wickets this season – double digits, and then some! His economy is slightly higher (8.38), but he has a strike rate of 10.28 – so he cares about taking wickets, and not just taking a wicket here and there! WSF will have to rely on Owen to break the back of TSK’s batting lineup. Owen is an aggressive bowler with lots of different variations, and could upset TSK’s middle order and keep Freedom in a competitive position in what is essentially a must-win match this series.
This contest is more than runs; bowlers are attempting to outsmart one another. The dependable Noor Ahmad, the raw speed of Adam Milne, and Mitchell Owen’s hitting ability are just some of the reasons this match is a must-watch for bowling enthusiasts. Will the intelligence and pace of TSK be too much for the aggression of WSF’s wicket-to-wicket bowler? Could Owen’s patience be the driving force behind Freedom’s rise? We are sure about one aspect of this match — the middle overs will define the outcome of this match.
With excitement building for this TSK v WSF match, these bowlers should stay at the forefront of your thoughts. It could be an unexpected wicket, a crucial maiden over, a few overs that turn the match; the bowling will be just as important. So, who do you see stepping up to be the bowling hero of the game? Share your thoughts, and if the bowlers will contribute and be the highlights of Major League Cricket’s TSK v WSF match!
