Six teams will feature in the third edition of the Global T20 Canada league, which is making a comeback after four years. The player draft was held on June 14 in Mumbai, and all six teams have announced their squads and captains.

Two new teams have replaced defending champions Winnipeg Hawks and the Edmonton Royals: Surrey Jaguars and Mississauga Panthers.

The squad strength of each team is capped at 16, and every team is allowed six international players, four players from Associate nations, and six local players to promote the growth of Canadian cricket.

Here are the full squad and team lists of all six teams.

The league stage of the tournament will feature 21 matches, with each team playing seven matches, possibly in a similar format as the IPL, where the six teams will be divided into two virtual groups.

The difference here will be that teams will face the other teams from their group twice and the other group members once, amounting to seven games each.

The top four teams will qualify for the playoffs, which again will be in a similar format to the IPL, including the Qualifier 1, the Eliminator, the Qualifier 2, and the final.

The final will be played on August 06 at the CAA Centre in Brampton, Ontario.
