Pollard assisted his team to the final of the MLC 2023 game, but he was unable to participate in the game. Instead, Nicholas Pooran, who was leading the batting of the MI New York, gave an outstanding performance. Pooran's undefeated innings of 137 runs off just 55 balls, which helped his club achieve a historic victory and win the first-ever MLC championship, was tremendously damaging.
Despite having a lofty chase of 184 runs, MI New York suffered a blow right away as Steven Taylor left the game without scoring. But on the powerplay, Nicholas Pooran's dominating innings at No. 3 helped his side win the game.
