Former Indian cricketer and all-rounder Yuvraj Singh was touted as the biggest catch for the Global T20 Canada tournament. However, the all-rounder did not manage to shine and the team he represented in his debut, Toronto Nationals, lost to Vancouver Knights by 8 wickets on Thursday. This was the first match of the GT20 Canada tournament.

Toronto Nationals had posted a target of 160 runs for Vancouver Knights. However, the latter lost their opening batsmen after posting a total of just 36 runs only. West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle scored 12 runs while Tobias Visee scored 20 runs. Bowlers Mark Montfort and Jeremy Gordon dismissed them respectively.
