Pitch and Weather Report

There is a chance of scattered thunderstorms on Wednesday at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad which is not a good sign.

This is going to the third game at this venue in the second leg, so the pitch will still be fresh which means that it might be good for batting. Anything above 160 would be a good score but if it is a rain-affected game then you will better try and chase.

Team News

Trinbago Knight Riders

Trinbago Knight Riders are unstoppable at the moment. They are winning matches from difficult situations. Kieron Pollard, their skipper is leading from the front as he smashed 72 off just 28 balls with 9 sixes in the last game.

The bowlers are doing a great job and the batsmen are making useful contributions which is a good sign for the Knight Riders. Sunil Narine’s fitness is the only major concern for the Knight Riders. Pollard and Simmons are the players to watch out for.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots

Chris Lynn has been the biggest disappointment for St Kitts and Nevis Patriots as he has failed to fire in the whole tournament up till now. Their batsmen haven’t performed to their potential which is why they have failed to make an impact as a team in this year’s CPL.

Rayad Emrit their skipper has performed well with the ball and he has been supported by a few of their bowlers. If the Nevis Patriots want to win then their batting needs to put up a good performance in the upcoming matches.
