Tigers look to bounce back after the scare against Knights
Montreal Tigers have played three matches so far in this tournament, but their only win came in their opening match which was against Winnipeg Hawks.
Their last game was abandoned after the first innings. In that match against Vancouver Knights, Tigers ended up conceding 276 runs. This could mean they could make some changes in their bowling unit as their batting seems quite balanced at this moment. They are currently occupying the fourth position on the points table.

Lying on the bottom of the points table, Royals' first loss came against Toronto Nationals while their previous match was Brampton Wolves which they lost by 27 runs.
Sherfane Rutherford or Davy Jacobs could be brought into the side to boost their batting as their bowling seems alright at this very moment.

The pitch so far has been really flat, and the conditions have made look batting really easy. The boundaries are somewhat small which has kept the average run rate pretty high this season. Going into this match, we could have another high scoring match on the cards with both teams having some power hitters in there.
