Toronto Nationals will be without Kieron Pollard, who is back with the West Indies’ squad to face India in Florida. Sandeep Lamichhane is available again after international duty, however, after being unable to lead Nepal to the T20 World Cup qualifying tournament. Chirag Suri made his first appearance last time out and remains available – the 19-year-old is only on the UAE’s standby list for their tour of the Netherlands.
TTN Key Players
Yuvraj Singh: The veteran Indian, and captain of this team, has scored 35 and 45 in his last two matches, getting back to his big-hitting best having struggled for form in the opening match. He also picked up a wicket bowling last time out too.
Rodrigo Thomas: The big-hitting Canadian opener has hit two good innings now, both in losing causes. He scored 41 against Vancouver and 65 from 46 balls against Winnipeg in the last match.
Heinrich Klaasen: Yet to pass 50 but he has 101 runs from three innings so far, proving a useful top-order batsman with a strike rate of 146.37.
TTN Team Form
Toronto have lost two of their three matches so far, having started with an eight-wicket defeat to Vancouver Knights and failed to defend 216/7 in a last-ball, three-wicket loss to Winnipeg Hawks last time out.
In between, they secured their only win. Heinrich Klaasen top-scored with 45 from 39 balls as the Nationals chased 192 to beat Edmonton by two wickets.

Brampton Wolves Team News & Playing 11
BTW Team News
Brampton Wolves made their first change of the tournament last time out, as Babar Hayat came into the team in place of Nawab Singh. They will have to make at least two more this time, meanwhile, with Rohan Mustafa and Zahoor Khan in the Netherlands with the UAE. That could open the way for 21-year-old Canadian all-rounder Abraash Khan.
BTW Key Players
Lendl Simmons: Having finished last season top of the run-scoring charts, the big-hitting opener has scored 118 runs from three innings so far this time too, at a strike rare of 178.78.
Shahid Afridi: ‘Boom Boom’ lived up to his nickname in his only innings so far, hammering 81 from 40 balls – including 15 boundaries – in a match-winning knock against Edmonton Royals. He has also spun his way to four wickets too.
Ish Sodhi: After his match-winning 5-8 in the first game, the New Zealand spinner took three more in the next match and then topped the bowling figures with 2-16 from his four overs last time out.
BTW Team Form
Brampton Wolves have won all three matches they have played so far. They started in style by thrashing Montreal – bowling them out for 101 and winning by ten wickets just 40 balls later. It was a little closer against Edmonton, but Shahid Afridi’s unbeaten 81 from 40 balls proved the difference, as the Wolves set 207/5 and won by 27 runs.
Last time out, meanwhile, they bowled Winnipeg Hawks out for 116 and Colin Munro’s unbeaten half-century from 31 balls ensured an easy seven-wicket win.
