Talking about the summit clash of the third season of GT20 Canada, it was a win for Montreal Tigers in a low-scoring thriller. After Surrey Jaguars were restricted to 130/5, Montreal Tigers were also in a fix. The Chris Lynn-led team was reduced to 106/5 in 18 overs. With the ball coming slow onto the bat, scoring 25 in 12 was not easy but Andre Russell put his hand up. The West Indies all-rounder scored a 6-ball 20* to see his team through.
