Seattle acquire David Warner for upcoming MLC Season which will be the Australian’s first taste of MLC action.
Seattle Orcas sign David Warner for the third season of the MLC.
Warner, who is presently captaining the Karachi Kings in the PSL, has played in tournaments all around the world and has a lot of T20 experience with him. He has amassed 12,956 runs at a strike rate of 140.27 in 401 Twenty20 matches. In June of last year, he announced his retirement from international cricket.
Warner, who has played since 2009 and is currently the fourth-highest run scorer in the IPL with 6565 runs from 184 innings, was one of the most well-known players to go unsold at the auction ahead of IPL 2025. He did, however, make a significant impact on the BBL this season when he returned as captain of the Sydney Thunder and guided them to the championship game. Additionally, he finished the league as the second-highest run scorer with 405 runs in 12 innings.
Warner also played for the Dubai Capitals, who won the ILT20 in February of this year.
In 2023, Seattle won the MLC table, but MI New York defeated them in the championship game. With just one victory in seven games during the second season under Heinrich Klaasen’s leadership, they finished last in the standings.
The dates of MLC 2025 are set for June 12–13. Warner will play for London Spirit at The Hundred, so it won’t conflict like it did last year.
