BANGLA TIGERS MISSISSAUGA FORM: THE LEAGUE’S MOST IMPROVED
Bangla Tigers Mississauga, captained by Bangladeshi legend Shakib Al Hasan, have been the most improved team in the whole league. After collecting just one point from a possible 14 last season to getting nine this term. They will fancy their chances of challenging for the trophy later this week.
LAST THREE: AWLWW
TORONTO NATIONALS FORM: INCONSISTENCY OF THE NATIONALS
The Toronto Nationals have been steady in the last couple of editions of the Global T20 Canada and their seven games this season produced with three defeats, three victories and a no result. They scraped into the top four this year and that is despite actually winning two of their opening three matches.

BANGLA TIGERS MISSISSAUGA BETTING ANALYSIS
Despite being a fading force as a batter, the aforementioned Shakib Al Hasan has remained extremely impressive with the ball. He did get a top score of 36 from 30 the other day but a Shakib-related bet is best to be on wickets with him to take another couple here seeming quite likely.
With the bat instead, they are still waiting and waiting for Rahmanullah Gurbaz to come to the party. His demotion to three saw him pick up the pace a bit against Surrey Jaguars and he might finally be about to put his foot back down on the pedal with Gurbaz being Mississauga’s top scorer on the night looking a good shout.
TORONTO NATIONALS BETTING ANALYSIS
On what are slow and turning tracks at the TD Cricket Arena, the Toronto Nationals have actually relied upon pace throughout the competition with Jason Beherendorff, Romario Shepherd and Junaid Siddique. Siddique is the leading wicket-taker in the competition so another two or more wickets for him is always a reasonable bet.
With the bat, the Nationals have now benefitted from mis-firing captain Colin Munro at the top of the order, whilst Andries Gous and Nicholas Kirton have shown flashes. They need a score of 30+ at least from Munro to compete and now is the time for the Kiwi to step up.
BANGLA TIGERS MISSISSAUGA VS TORONTO NATIONALS EXPERT PREDICTION
It appeared like a simple re-badging and that that wouldn’t be enough for Bangla Tigers Mississauga but the franchise went under fast and much-needed reconstruction to produce a much-improved side that only missed out on the top two on net run rate. The Toronto Nationals appeared far more susceptible in the league, especially with the bat, and backing Mississauga may well be the way to go for this one.
