India's spin wizard joins the San Francisco Unicorns for the 2026 season.
In a move that’s got the cricketing world buzzing, Ravichandran Ashwin is set to bring his spin wizardry to the San Francisco Unicorns in Major League Cricket (MLC). This is a massive deal, as Ashwin becomes the first player with India caps to step into the MLC arena, adding some serious star power to the growing league.
The Unicorns announced the signing on Saturday, and fans are already picturing Ashwin bamboozling batters on American soil. MLC, which aims to replicate the IPL's success, kicks off its fourth season on June 18, 2026, and Ashwin’s presence is likely to draw in crowds eager to witness his craft.
With the league's ambitious vision to tap into the US market, the addition of a seasoned campaigner like Ashwin is a statement move. Will he turn the Unicorns into title contenders? One thing’s for sure: cricket in the States is about to get a whole lot spicier!
