Simmons’ batting firepower may
well be matched by that of his
fellow West Indian, Andre Fletcher.
Representing the Edmonton
Royals in 2018, Fletcher scored an
impressive 169 runs in total from
5 innings at a healthy average of
42.25. Fletcher’s average 2018
strike rate was 137.4
Canadian national senior team
player Nitish Kumar will also be
among those seeking to leave his
mark for the Brampton Wolves
in this year’s GT20 Tournament.
Kumar was one of Canada’s outstanding
players during the ICC
World Cup Division 2 Qualifier
Tournament that was held in Namibia
earlier this year.
Brampton Wolves Boasts Ultra Impressive
Lineup For GT20 Canada Season Debut!
Playing as they will likely be before
highly supportive home City spectator
attendances, the Brampton
Wolves should prove to be more
than a hand full for their opponents
at this year’s GT20 Tournament.
Who knows they may even
go all the way.
That they will be starting the 2019 GT20 Canada Tournament
as unproved debutants, no one can dispute.
But with a galaxy of proven international T20 stars
within their roster, arguably the largest such collection
from among this year’s competing franchises, the
Brampton Wolves seem destined for an ultra exciting
GT20 Canada debut.
West Indies ICC T20 World Cup two time winning
captain Darren Sammy heads the list of the Brampton
Wolves formidable lineup. He will be joined by Bangladesh’s
Shakib Al Hasan who is currently on track
to finishing this year’s ICC 2019 World Cup as one of
that Tournament’s highest scorers. New Zealand’s
belligerent batsman Colin Munro, Boom Boom Sahid
Afridi and his former Pakistani teammate Wahab Riaz
are also included in the Brampton Wolves 2019 GT20
Canada roster.

So too is West Indies’ Lendl Simmons, the GT20 2018
Inaugural Season’s top run getter. Playing for the Winnipeg
Hawks, Simmons finished the 2018 GT20 Canada
Season with a Tournament high 312 runs at an impressive
45.86 average and at a healthy 140.79 strike rate.
