Toronto Nationals and Winnipeg Hawks will clash it out in the Canada T20 League which would be the 7th match in the second season of the Canada T20 league. Toronto Nationals got off to an awful launch in the Global T20 Canada, losing to defending title holders Vancouver Knights by eight wickets. Nevertheless, the team, captained by Yuvraj Singh, made an astute comeback in their previous game versus Edmonton Royals. The team is at present swinging in the middle of the points table and is ready to face Winnipeg Hawks, who sit at the second number in the league.
