Brampton Wolves Team News & Playing 11
Brampton Wolves had a disappointing day with the bat last time against Vancouver Knights as three of their top five batsmen contributed just 10 runs to the team's total of 138. The team will expect the likes of Lendl Simmons, George Munsey and Colin Munro to fire this time around. Simmons is among GT20 Canada 2019 tournament's top five batsmen with 167 runs. The opener smashed a half-century in the reverse fixture against Edmonton Royals and he will be eyeing another big knock here.
The Wolves looked out of sorts with the ball as well in their last outing and they will be hoping for their key men Wahab Riaz, Ish Sodhi and Junaid Siddiqui to deliver a good bowling performance on Tuesday. Sodhi has been the pick of the lot. The New Zealand leg-spinner is leading the wickets charts with 11 wickets at an economy of 7.38. He returned 5-8 against Montreal Tigers and took three wickets in the earlier encounter against the Royals.

Edmonton Royals Team News & Playing 11
Edmonton Royals put up an excellent show with the bat last time against Winnipeg Hawks and chased down 196 with ease to secure their first win of the season. Anshuman Rath struck an unbeaten 87 off 50 balls while skipper Mohammad Hafeez too cracked a fifty, and both these batsmen will be expected to carry that form into this must-win game. James Neesham has scored the most runs for the team. The New Zealand all-rounder is a key figure in the team's middle-order batting and is one of their main weapons with the ball as well.
Edmonton Royals will bank on their go-to bowlers in Ben Cutting, Shadab Khan and Kyle Phillip to put pressure on the Brampton Wolves. Shadab and Cutting are two of the tournament's leading wicket-takers with nine and eight wickets respectively. Both shared five wickets between them in the reverse encounter against the Wolves and also in the last match against the Winnipeg Hawks.
Edmonton Royals Predicted Playing 11
Anshuman Rath (wk), Navneet Dhaliwal, Mohammad Hafeez (c), James Neesham, Richie Berrington, Ben Cutting, Shadab Khan, Safyaan Sharif, Kyle Phillip, Satsimranjit Dhindsa, Mohammad Nawaz

🏆 Brampton Wolves vs Edmonton Royals Prediction
Brampton Wolves and Edmonton Royals find themselves at the opposite ends of the points table - while the former is at the top with four wins from five matches, the latter are cellar dwellers with four losses from five matches. The Royals will be playing under enormous pressure as it would take nothing less than a win to keep their playoffs hopes alive. The win in the last match will surely fire them up but beating the Wolves who have been very dominant in the tournament will take some doing. Brampton Wolves got the better of Edmonton Royals last time out and we expect them to emerge victorious in this Round 2 clash as well.
Final Verdict: Back Brampton Wolves to beat Edmonton Royals.
