Canada’s cricket team wants opportunity, not sympathy on the world stage, says captain Dilpreet Bajwa as they compete in the T20 World Cup
Bajwa stresses that Canada’s struggles aren’t due to lack of talent, they struggle because they don’t get enough high-quality matches
The rise of franchise cricket in Canada has helped players gain match practice and financial stability, something that was missing before
Long Canadian winters mean fewer matches, making it hard for players to stay sharp and compete with stronger nations
Bajwa says sustained exposure through leagues and bilateral series is the real need not sympathy to close the gap with top teams
Canada are fighting to make their mark with passion and effort, pushing to compete with the best as their journey continues in the T20 World Cup
