David Warner is set to make his Major League Cricket (MLC) debut through the upcoming 2025 season later this year. The former Australian opening batter has joined the Seattle Orcas franchise, where he will be accompanied with fellow international stars like Heinrich Klaasen and Ryan Rickelton.

It is worth noting that Warner is currently in Pakistan plying his trade for the Karachi Kings franchise in the ongoing PSL 2025 season. A veteran of over 400 T20s, the 38-year-old announced his retirement from international cricket for Australia last year.

David Warner all set for MLC debut

On April 18, i.e., a couple of months after the player’s draft, the Seattle Orcas franchise confirmed the addition of legendary Australian opener David Warner into its squad for the upcoming MLC 2025 season.


Earlier this year, David Warner was also appointed as the new captain of the Karachi Kings franchise for the PSL 2025 season, replacing Pakistan’s Test specialist Shan Masood in the process. Under his leadership, the Kings have secured two wins from three games so far and are currently ranked third on the PSL 2025 points table with a healthy NRR of -0.014.

One of the all-time greats of the game, Warner failed to attract any bids at the IPL 2025 mega auction last November, despite being one of the leading run-aggregators in the history of the tournament.

In 400 innings, the legendary left-hander has accrued 12,925 runs at a staggering average of 36.82, plundering eight tons and 108 half-centuries in the process.
