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]
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]
