Cancelled for 2025 : https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ ... -1.7589244

Not sure there is reason to be optimistic for future years. Another fail for Cricket Canada. Well, at least they won't have the excuse that playing GT20 made them forget how to play ODIs like with the 2024 Netherlands CWC League 2.

And what happened to the Canada Super60 ? July 2025 they said. It doesn't sound like Brampton mayor Patrick Brown knows anything about it. We've gone from two franchise tournaments scheduled in Brampton to zero.

Looks like BdJ was saying GT20 was dead back in May (Reddit) and has been proven right.

I even heard about the Super60 on the radio. The station is owned by Rogers Communications and the stadium is sponsored by Rogers so there’s some involvement there.

^ Well, that's something I suppose.

I would guess Super60 moved their event date and location once they heard GT20 had new ownership only for that tournament to go on hiatus again. Super60 indoors could work on a novelty basis as did cricket in the Skydome (now Roger's Centre) in 1989. Would the owners seek to move in back to Brampton next summer if GT20 is out of the way ?
