Montreal Tigers has had a topsy-turvy run in the ongoing edition of the Global T20 Canada 2019. The team started with a 24-run victory over Winnipeg Hawks in a curtailed-game. However, the 10-wicket loss at the hands of table-toppers Brampton Wolves hit them badly. After five games, the Tigers finished third on the points table. Their match in Round 2 is against the Toronto Nationals.

In their very last game, the Tigers lost to the Nationals by four wickets and would be keen to make amends. The Nationals, led by Yuvraj Singh, finished fourth on the table. The team has three batters, with well over 100 runs, but it’s the bowling unit that has led the team down in quite a few instances. Their last victory over the Tigers would provide them with a whole lot of confidence.
