GT20 Canada 2023 - Most Wickets and Most Runs: Munro and Forde take lead - Updated After Qualifier 2

The second finalists of the Global T20 Canada 2023 have been decided after a thrilling encounter between the Montreal Tigers and Vancouver Knights. Following the nailbiting performances to ensure the ticket to the final, the players have moved up and down on the points table.

The Knights batted first and compiled a total of 137 on the loss of six wickets. It was not a mammoth score, hence, the chances looked 50-50 after the first inning. The Knights had contributions from Mohammad Rizwan’s 39 and Corbin Bosch’s 36. Whereas, Tigers’ Abbas Afridi delivered a sensational bowling spell, picking five wickets. Aayan Khan could manage one wicket.

During their chase, the Tigers did not get off to a start, with both openers back in the hut with scores of 13 and 7 respectively. Sherfane Rutherford’s 48 off 34 balls was pivotal in sealing victory for Montreal, followed by Dipendra Singh’s 25.

Rutherford snatched victory for his team from an improbable situation, hitting Rayyan Pathan for 3 consecutive sixes in the final over, with only one wicket in hand. His side is set to face off versus Surrey Jaguars in the final.
