A recent no-result against Surrey Jaguars gave them their first point of the season.
In terms of batting, Montreal Tigers rely on a lineup that has the ability to produce standout performances. Tim Seifert, coming off a successful season in the Lanka Premier League, is a strong contender to shine against the struggling Knights.
