MLC 5 Wicket Haul

A five-wicket haul in a T20 match isn’t just rare - it’s a statement. With limited overs and aggressive batting, bowlers rarely get the chance to run through sides. That’s why this list in Major League Cricket is as short as it is impressive.

Wayne Parnell was the first to break into the five-for club. Bowling for Seattle Orcas, he picked up 5 for 20 against Texas Super Kings, using pace and smart changes to pull the innings apart. Just 24 hours later, Washington Freedom’s Saurabh Netravalkar took it a step further - delivering a dream spell of 6 for 9 in under four overs. That performance not only became the best in MLC’s history, but it’s also one of the most economical and deadly spells in any T20 league around the world.

These rare performances remind us that even in a batter-dominated format, bowlers can still grab the spotlight - and rewrite the story of the match.
