Controversies

[edit]

In the playoff stage of the tournament, the Qualifier 1 and Eliminator were not played due to rain. In Qualifier 1, the Montreal Tigers were declared winners and qualified for the final directly, as they finished higher in the group stage, while the Brampton Wolves advanced to Qualifier 2. In the Eliminator, the match was not played due to rain, but the match referee chose to play an Super Over between the teams to decide the winner. Shakib Al Hasan, the captain of Bangla Tigers Mississauga, did not attend the toss out of protest and, as a result, the Toronto Nationals were declared the winners, thus advancing to Qualifier 2.[7][8]
