Former Australian cricket star David Warner has signed with Seattle Orcas for the 2025 Major League Cricket season, scheduled from June 12 to July 13. This marks Warner 's first venture into the USA-based T20 league after retiring from international cricket last June.
Warner brings extensive T20 experience to the Orcas, having played 401 matches and scored 12,956 runs at a strike rate of 140.27 across various international leagues.

Currently, Warner is captaining Karachi Kings in the Pakistan Super League. He recently led Sydney Thunder to the Big Bash League final and finished as the tournament's second-highest run-scorer with 405 runs in 12 innings.
The veteran opener was part of the victorious Dubai Capitals team in the ILT20 tournament this February. However, he went unsold in the IPL 2025 auction, despite being the tournament's fourth-highest run-getter with 6,565 runs from 184 innings since 2009.
Seattle Orcas dominated the inaugural MLC season in 2023, topping the league table before losing in the final to MI New York. Their performance declined significantly in the second season under Heinrich Klaasen's leadership, managing only one win in seven games.
