Delhi: Major League Cricket (MLC) for Seattle orcas has created a big crisis in 2025. After losing five consecutive matches, the team has seen two major changes, where captain Henriqus Klassen has resigned his head, and head coach Matthew Mota has broken ties with the franchise.
Klassen left captaincy
The team management said that former South African veteran Klassen has left the captaincy to focus completely on his batting, as he is struggling with the form this season. He has scored only 70 runs in 6 matches so far, with his best score not out 27. However, the wicketkeeper has left the captaincy, but Klassen will continue to be an important part of the team and will continue to play.
“We respect Klassen’s decision to quit Klassen’s captaincy,” CEO Hemant Dua said in an official statement. It shows his character and the spirit of giving priority to the team, when Klassen shared his decision, Sikander Raza was the option for us.
Apart from this, he said, “This is a moment of renewal for Seattle orcas. It has been a difficult phase for the team and some difficult decisions have to be taken during this time. We are grateful to him for the dedication of Matthew Mot and wish for his future.”
Alexander Raza became new captain
Now the team’s command of Zimbabwe’s veteran all -rounder Sikander Raza is Nesambhali. The management is confident that Raza has the leadership ability that can show the team the way to return.
