Scheduled to be held at BC Place in Vancouver from Sept 29 to Oct 4, the tournament will feature Vancouver Anchors, Whiterock Warriors, Brampton Blitz, Toronto Sixers, Mississauga Masters and Montreal Royal Tigers.Already boasting marquee signings such as Pollard, Pooran, Colin Munro, Mustafizur Rahman, Russell and Bairstow, the draft further strengthened the league\u2019s talent pool with the additions of Moeen, Imad Wasim, Tom Curran, David Willey, Tymal Mills, Azam Khan and Andries Gous.The draft also reinforced the competition\u2019s commitment to developing cricket in Canada, with several prominent domestic players securing spots across the six franchises. National team stars and emerging talents including Saad Bin Zafar, Kaleem Sana, Nicholas Kirton, Yuvraj Samra, Ali Nadeem, Dilraj Deol and Finley Dixon are expected to play key roles during the six-day event.With explosive batters, versatile all-rounders and experienced international bowlers spread across six teams, the player draft has laid the foundation for what organisers believe will be the strongest edition of the tournament yet.League partner Yuvraj Singh said the quality of players choosing to participate reflected the growing appeal of the event. \u201cIt is exciting to see so many world-class cricketers choosing to be part of Canada Super 60. The combination of internationally renowned players and emerging Canadian talent creates an outstanding platform for the sport to grow while delivering a world-class spectacle for fans,\u201d former India all-rounder Yuvraj said.Assistant tournament director Kyle Coetzer highlighted the significance of completing the draft and the confidence shown by players in the league\u2019s vision. \u201cThe calibre of talent secured by all six franchises demonstrates the growing international appeal of the league and reflects the confidence players have in what we are building,\u201d Coetzer said.Returning to the iconic BC Place, Canada Super 60 will once again stage both men\u2019s and women\u2019s competitions, combining international cricket with entertainment and fan-focused experiences. The women\u2019s squads, full match schedule and entertainment lineup are expected to be announced in the lead-up to the tournament.The 2026 edition promises six days of high-octane action as some of the sport\u2019s biggest names converge in Vancouver for one of North America\u2019s fastest-growing cricket events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yuvraj Singh with the Canada Super 60 trophy Photo : Pal PILLAI\/CS60\/FS\u00a0Media\u00a0PRO Kieron Pollard, Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":836456,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[408558,408570,10477,408566,64,63,285256,408555,408561,408548,408550,408549,408551,408579,408552,79033,740,408553,210978,408571,408577,408578,408572,133396,21413,183129,138030,408568,79028,408573,408576,408574,408563,251888,408564,11883,408569,10479,408554,408567,408557,85,408580,52090,408562,408565,3926,408559,408556,408581,408560,408575,87685,7872],"class_list":["post-836455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-2026-canada-super-60","tag-ali-nadeem","tag-andre-russell","tag-andries-gous","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-azam-khan","tag-bc-place","tag-brampton-blitz","tag-canada-super-60","tag-canada-super-60-player-draft","tag-canada-super-60-season-2","tag-canada-super-60-t10","tag-canadian-domestic-players","tag-canadian-t10-league","tag-colin-munro","tag-cricket","tag-cricket-in-canada","tag-david-willey","tag-dilraj-deol","tag-entertainment-lineup","tag-fan-experiences","tag-finley-dixon","tag-franchise-cricket","tag-imad-wasim","tag-international-stars","tag-jonny-bairstow","tag-kaleem-sana","tag-kieron-pollard","tag-kyle-coetzer","tag-match-schedule-announcement","tag-mens-and-womens-competitions","tag-mississauga-masters","tag-moeen-ali","tag-montreal-royal-tigers","tag-mustafizur-rahman","tag-nicholas-kirton","tag-nicholas-pooran","tag-north-america-cricket","tag-saad-bin-zafar","tag-sept-29-to-oct-4","tag-sports","tag-t10-cricket-tournament","tag-tom-curran","tag-toronto-sixers","tag-tymal-mills","tag-vancouver","tag-vancouver-anchors","tag-vancouver-cricket-tournament","tag-vancouver-sports-event","tag-whiterock-warriors","tag-womens-squads-announcement","tag-yuvraj-samra","tag-yuvraj-singh"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/836455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=836455"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/836455\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/836456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=836455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=836455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=836455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
