The Canada Super 60 cricket tournament is a new, fast-paced T10 format cricket league set to debut from October 8 to 13, 2025, at the BC Place Stadium in Vancouver. It will be the first major international cricket tournament played indoors under lights, featuring both men’s and women’s competitions from its inaugural season. The matches are quick, lasting about 90 minutes with each team batting for 10 overs (60 balls), providing all-action contests with an emphasis on aggressive batting and big hits.
This ambitious tournament is organized by Cricket Canada and Star 333 Sports Inc. and aims to be a stepping stone for the next generation of Canadian cricketers by providing high-quality exposure in a professional setting at a prestigious venue. The league is also historic for its inclusivity, showcasing both men's and women's teams right from the start.
The tournament will feature six franchises: Whiterock Warriors, Toronto Sixers, Brampton Blitz, Montreal Tigers, Vancouver Kings, and Mississauga Masters. Notable international stars such as Quinton de Kock, Shakib Al Hasan, Moeen Ali, Jason Roy, Dawid Malan, Alex Hales, and Pakistan's Shoaib Malik, Khawaja Nafay, and Saeed Ajmal are confirmed to participate, alongside strong Canadian and associate nation talents.
Yuvraj Singh, the cricket legend, is also involved in leading the initiative, adding star power and global attention. The Canada Super 60 emphasizes an entertaining, fast format that appeals to younger viewers and aims to grow cricket’s reach in North America.
The event marks a significant milestone for Canadian cricket, promising thrilling, high-octane cricket over six days in October 2025 at a premier venue that underscores the sport's growth in the country and offers a new chapter for cricket fans in Canada and beyond [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8].
