Toronto Sixers Squad for Canada Super 60 2026: Full Team, Key Players and Schedule

From Bottom of the Table to Title Contenders? Meet the New-Look Toronto Sixers

Who captains the Toronto Sixers?

West Indies wicketkeeper-batter Nicholas Pooran, one of the most feared hitters in world cricket.

How did Toronto do last year?

It was a season to forget. They finished bottom of the table in 2025 with just one win, though that win came against the eventual champions, Brampton Blitz.

What has changed?

Almost everything. Toronto have rebuilt around Pooran and fellow West Indies star Kieron Pollard, and they have lost last season's top scorer, Alex Hales, to Brampton.

The Story: A Team Built for Sixes

The Toronto Sixers have a name to live up to, and this year they have assembled a squad that can do exactly that. After a disappointing first season, the franchise has gone for pure power, bringing in two of the biggest hitters the short formats have ever seen.

For readers new to the format: Canada Super 60 is T10 cricket, with each team batting for only 10 overs, or 60 balls. In a game that short, the team that clears the boundary most often usually wins. Toronto have built their side around that idea.

The West Indian Engine Room

Everything revolves around two Caribbean superstars. Captain Nicholas Pooran is a left-handed wicketkeeper-batter who can take a game away in a handful of balls, and he is one of the best T10 and T20 batters in the world. Alongside him is Kieron Pollard, the powerful all-rounder whose finishing has won matches in leagues all over the globe.

Together they give Toronto something every T10 side wants: two players who can hit sixes from the very first delivery they face.

All-Round Firepower

Behind the stars sits real all-round quality. Australia's Daniel Sams returns to the side and can hit hard at the death as well as bowl left-arm pace. Pakistan's Imad Wasim is one of the most economical left-arm spinners in short-format cricket and a useful lower-order batter. Canadian all-rounder Tejinder Johal adds local depth.

A Deep Batting Order

Toronto have plenty of batting options to support Pooran and Pollard. England's Will Smeed is a young, fearless hitter who is already a regular in franchise leagues, and Tom Kohler-Cadmore brings experience and the ability to keep wicket.

The side also includes Andries Gous, who arrives in excellent touch after being named Player of the Match in the European T20 Premier League final earlier this month, where his unbeaten 90 won the title for Edinburgh. USA batter Saiteja Mukkamalla and Canadians Dilraj Deol and Shreyas Movva complete a long batting line-up.

The Bowling Attack

The pace attack is led by Pakistan quick Hunain Shah, who reached the Caribbean Premier League final with the Jamaica Kingsmen this month. He is supported by Canadian bowlers Nawab Singh and Ali Khan, and USA's Rushil Agarkar.
