As has been the case so far in the tournament, the superior batting side will be the most likely winners.
Match details
- Match: Seattle Orcas vs LA Knight Riders
- Venue: Grand Prairie Stadium, Texas
- Time: 2 AM IST

What to expect from SO vs LAKR match?
The big boys from Seattle will have to deliver for their team. Tim Seifert, Shimron Hetmyer, Dasun Shanaka and Marcus Stoinis, are all there in the side. In addition, keeper-batter Matthew Breetzke can smash a few as well. So, if the batting fires they win. Similarly, LAKR have a formidable batting too.
Alex Hales and Colin Munro at the top can be really dangerous. Put Andre Russell and Sunil Narine in the middle, and that would be enough to make the opposition sweat. One thing is for sure, the Dallas wicket has nothing in it for the bowlers, and are at batters’ mercy at all times.

Seattle Orcas XI: Shayan Jahangir, Tim Seifert(w), Shimron Hetmyer, Matthew Breetzke, Marcus Stoinis(c), Dasun Shanaka, Jasdeep Singh, Cameron Gannon, Ottneil Baartman, Harmeet Singh, Ali Sheikh.

Who will win Seattle Orcas vs LA Knight Riders match?
As discussed earlier, superior batting is what will win the match for either team. On paper, Orcas seem to have better batters at their disposal. So Orcas more likely to win.
