Benched in IPL, Storm in MLC, Owen Smashes 337 Runs
Dallas | The player who was deprived of a single opportunity in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 has now created a storm in a foreign league. We are talking about Australian all-rounder Mitchell Owen, who remained on the bench for Punjab Kings (PBKS).

Owen's Bat Roars in MLC

Mitchell Owen is currently playing for the Washington Freedom in America's Major League Cricket (MLC).

His performance in this tournament has been so spectacular that bowlers appear helpless against him.

Owen has already scored 337 runs in just 5 matches played so far.

During this period, his average has been 67.40, while his strike rate is 217.42, which reflects his explosive batting.

Set a Record in a Single Inning

Owen has hit 31 fours and a tournament-high 24 sixes so far.

He played a historic inning against MI New York at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas.

In this match, he scored 155 runs off just 68 balls, which is the highest individual score in the history of MLC.

"It's frustrating when you don't get an opportunity, but as a player, you always have to be ready."

Will Punjab Kings Regret It?

Punjab Kings had bought Owen for 3 crore rupees, but he was not given a chance in a single match in IPL 2026.

Even when the team was getting knocked out of the playoff race, he was ignored.

Now, his performance in the MLC has certainly made the Punjab Kings management wonder if they made a huge mistake.

Mitchell Owen's form shows that talent cannot be kept on the bench for long. His performance is a big message for T20 leagues around the world.
