By Shubham - 25 Aug, 2020

The two teams which are stuck in the middle of the points table, Jamaica Tallawahs and Guyana Amazon Warriors, will be taking on each other in the 12th Match of the Caribbean Premier League.  Guyana Amazon Warriors has won two out of their four games whereas Jamaica Tallawahs has managed to win only one out of their three.

These two teams have played against each other in this season and this would be their second encounter. GAW defeated JT by 14 runs in a low-scoring game. Both the teams have good spinners, so it is going to be a battle between them.

Captains of both the teams are comparatively young and even though it is early days in the tournament both teams would want to get some important points and climb up the points table.

Team News

Jamaica Tallawahs

Andre Russell their star player, didn’t fire in the first two games but scored a half-century which went in vain in the third game. Glenn Phillips who is their wicket-keeper did well with the bat in the first couple of games.

Amongst the bowlers, the young spin twins - Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Sandeep Lamichanne have done well. Chadwick Walton needs to pull up his socks and start scoring more runs.

Andre Russell and Mujeeb Ur Rahman will be the key players to watch out for.

Guyana Amazon Warriors

Shimron Hetmyer started the CPL with two half-centuries but then was dismissed for two single-digit scores. He will be aiming to get back in form in this game. The openers haven’t done anything special and some consistency from them will help GAW.

Sherfane Rutherford needs to score more runs if they want to finish off an innings well. Imran Tahir and Keemo Paul have been brilliant with the ball and even though Chris Green hasn’t got many wickets, he has been economical which is helping the other bowlers pick up wickets.

Fantasy Prediction

Shimron Hetmyer, Asif Ali, Brandon King, Glenn Phillips, Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell, Keemo Paul, Chris Green, Imran Tahir, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Sandeep Lamichanne

Captain: Andre Russell, Vice-Captain: Imran Tahir
