The 2019 Global T20 Canada was the second edition of the Global T20 Canada, a 20-over professional cricket tournament, played at the CAA Centre, Brampton, Ontario.[1][2] It started on 25 July 2019, and concluded with the final on 11 August 2019.[3] It was slightly later in the calendar than the previous tournament, to avoid clashing with the 2019 Cricket World Cup.[4] Vancouver Knights were the defending champions.[5] A new team named New York Legends were announced to replace Cricket West Indies B Team.[6] However, the idea was later cancelled,[2] and the Brampton Wolves were named as the sixth franchise team in June 2019.[7]
On 26 July 2019, the start of the match between Montreal Tigers and Winnipeg Hawks was delayed by 90 minutes due to a bomb threat, when a suspicious package was found in the venue. The package was removed, with the match being reduced to twelve overs per side.[8]
The final, between the Winnipeg Hawks and the Vancouver Knights, finished in a tie.[9] Winnipeg Hawks won the match in the Super Over, to win their first title.[10]
Teams and squads
The following teams, squads and coaches were announced for the tournament.[7][11][12] More than 1,000 cricketers from 42 nations were on the list for the players' draft.[13]
In July 2019, Steven Taylor, Jasdeep Singh and Timil Patel withdrew from the tournament, after signing central contracts with USA Cricket.[15] In early August, the majority of the Emirati cricketers were recalled to play in the Twenty20 International (T20I) series against the Netherlands.[16] On 5 August 2019, Brendon McCullum announced his retirement from cricket, with the tournament being his final matches.[17]
