After thoroughly impressing in four ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2 ODI wins out of four, the Canada men’s senior team will host Nepal and Oman in the No Frills T20 Cup.
Canada defeated Oman by five wickets on Thursday, chasing down a target of 199 largely due to a terrific 83 off 95 featuring nine fours and a six from Pargat Singh. When called upon with the ball in the first innings, Singh also contributed figures of 5-0-22-2 to easily take home Player of the Match honours.
