MONTREAL TIGERS BETTING ANALYSIS
Montreal Tigers were given an automatic passage to the final as league stage winners after rain forced the abandonment of the first qualifier between them and Brampton Wolves. In regards to players who warrant investment following their performances across the tournament so far, consider Dilpreet Bajwa. The 21-year-old has racked up 206 runs across six innings as it stands at an average of 68.66, so consider backing him to finish as Montreal’s top batter in this final.
TORONTO NATIONALS BETTING ANALYSIS
Toronto Nationals’ victory over Brampton Wolves in the second qualifier booked their place in the final, an impressive five-wicket triumph which saw them chase down 142 with ten balls remaining. But if they are to take home the trophy here, they need their two star bowlers to have big games. Junaid Siddique and Romario Shepherd top the wicket-taking charts over the course of the competition, accumulated 13 and 12 scalps respectively. The latter recorded 4/32 last time out and he, alongside Siddique warrants investment via the Team – Top Bowler market.
MONTREAL TIGERS VS TORONTO NATIONALS EXPERT PREDICTION
Montreal Tigers are the reigning champions and have been the strongest side across this year’s tournament, so enter the final in confident mood. However, having not played since the league stage, questions linger regarding the rustiness of their team, who haven’t competed in a full game since August 5th, after their last league match was abandoned after two overs of play due to rain.
So often, bowlers turn out to be the ones who win titles and Toronto Nationals have two of the best in Siddique and Shepherd. That double-punch could prove so important in a pressure final and when taking this into account, backing the Nationals to ride the wave of momentum and upset Montreal is a move worth making.
