Chris Lynn did not have a great start to the tournament but that doesn’t change the fact he was brilliant last season as he was consistent throughout the tournament and scored 234 runs with an average of 39 and was the leading run scorer for the Montreal Tigers which makes us believe he would score well in the upcoming game.
Usman Khawaja has struggled to make an impact thus far.

Montreal Tigers to have a better opening partnership than Vancouver Knights
Montreal Tigers and Vancouver Knights go head to head for the fourth time in this tournament. Last season both sides went head to head twice in the group stages and both sides managed to share the spoils but in the playoffs it was Montreal Tigers who dominated the game and eventually won the game by one wicket.
