Vancouver Knights Team News & Playing 11
VCK Team News
Led by Chris Gayle, Vancouver Knights boast stacks of experience with several key international players in their line-up. Andre Russell was passed fit to play in the first game but did not bowl and was not needed to bat.
VCK Key Players
Rassie van der Dussen: Wasted no time continuing the form he showed at the World Cup, as he hit an unbeaten 65 from 43 balls in his 1st game of Global T20 Canada 2019. That was Van der Dussen – a star of last year’s tournament – third score above 60 in his last four innings.
Andre Russell: Not called upon with bat or ball last time out but, if the chips are up, he will can make a big impact with both. He was not voted MVP of the IPL without good reason.
Chris Gayle: The veteran opener and Vancouver Knights captain remains one of the most explosive batsmen in the game on his day.
VCK Team Form
After winning the inaugural tournament last season, Vancouver Knights got their title defence off to a winning start. Chadwick Walton (59*) and Rassie van der Dussen (65*) put on 126 for the third wicket as the Knights chased 160 to beat Toronto Nationals in just 17.2 overs.

Winnipeg Hawks Team News & Playing 11
WPH Team News
A mix of veteran campaigners and inexperienced players took to the field for the first match for Winnipeg. A 12-over slog is never going to provide a true reflection of how they played and even those that fell short, such as Dwayne Smith, would hope for a second chance.
WPH Key Players
Dwayne Bravo: Kept things tight with the ball, taking 1-16 from his three overs last time out to showcase exactly what he offers with ball in hand.
Umar Akmal: Scored three fours and four sixes as he top-scored with 49 from 30 balls in the defeat to Montreal Tigers in the first match.
JP Duminy: The only other Hawks’ batsman to get going last time out, scoring 30 from 14 balls to show he is back to his best form after struggling for consistency during the World Cup.
WPH Team Form
Winnipeg Hawks’ first match was reduced to 12 overs due to a technical issue. Montreal promptly posted 135/3, despite Dwayne Bravo’s 1-16, and the Hawks finished on 111/5 in reply.
