Not a novelty beat

Washington Freedom is the region’s Major League Cricket club — a young franchise with a championship already on the résumé. Sport DMV lists them on the main menu because cricket fans in this market shouldn’t have to leave the local scoreboard to find their team.

The next MLC window will come on a cricket calendar, not an NFL calendar. The Freedom page stays live so you have a home between seasons.

What we won’t invent

Squad sheets, overseas signings, and venue assignments get written when they’re public. We will not pretend we were in Dallas for a final we didn’t cover.
