Preview:

As the ECS T10 caravan moved to Rome, the rain also came along. The entire first day, where a total of five games were scheduled to be played, was washed out.

In the first of those, Bergamo CC will take on the Jinnah Brescia CC. With all the teams in more or less the same position, these two sides will try hard to register the first win of the tournament.


Weather Report

The chances of precipitation on Tuesday are considerably less. There shouldn’t be any rain interruptions.

With no matches on the first day of the tournament, the pitch continues to remain a mystery element for all the teams.

Match Details:

The 22nd match of the Caribbean Premier League 2020 is all set to be played between the Guyana Amazon Warriors and the Barbados Tridents at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad.

The match is scheduled to start at 05:30 PM Local Time (09:30 PM GMT) (03:00 AM IST – Sep 02).

This series will be live on Star Sports 1 and Star Sports 1 HD in India. Live streaming is available on Fan Code.

Preview:

The Guyana Amazon Warriors and the Barbados Tridents have had a decent tournament thus far. These two teams are placed third and fifth on the points table respectively. While the Warriors won three out of seven games, the Tridents won only two. The Warriors bounced last in the last game with a 7-wicket win after three consecutive losses.

The Barbados Tridents, however, do not have the winning momentum on their side. The defending champions lost in their last two games by very close margins. For their standards, this is unacceptable and they must improvise and find a way to get over the line in this match.


Weather Report

Rainfall might interrupt the proceedings in this game. The temperatures will not be too high during this match.

Pitch Condition/Report:

Spinners have enjoyed bowling on this pitch. A score around 150 in the first innings should be a par score here. In the last five games, the teams chasing won thrice.

Lancashire’s second match against Leicestershire did not produce a result, but the Lancashire bowlers had done a fine job against them.

Weather Report

There is a 100% chance of rain during the afternoon on Monday. The temperature in Rome is expected to be 23 degrees Celsius.

The pitch should be equally supportive for the batsmen and the bowlers. However, the wet outfield may make things difficult for the batsmen. Also, the cloudy weather will be best suited for the pacers.

Top Picks:

Riki Wessels is a T20 Blast legend. He has scored in excess of 300 runs in the last 6 seasons, even massing a mammoth 559 in the 2017 season. Last year he scored 461 runs at an average of 36 and was the 6th highest run-scorer. He is an absolute run machine and while he may not have performed in the last game, he sure deserves can be a game-changer.

Ryan Higgins is a splendid all-rounder who bats in the middle order as well as bowls his quota of 4 overs. He comes into the game on the back of an excellent bowling performance in the last game where he picked up 3 wickets. He has consistently scored more than 200 runs in the last 3 seasons at a very good strike rate of 142 and has picked up wickets at a regular interval as well. The all-round abilities of Ryan could be a huge asset for your team.

Graeme van Buuren’s performance was the silver lining in Gloucestershire’s loss. He scored a quickfire 53 off just 27 balls coming in the last few overs and even bowled well picking up a wicket and giving away just 20 runs in 4 overs. He looks to be in great touch.

Miles Hammond is a good young talent. While he scored just 4 of 13 balls in the last match he played, he has scored in excess of 300 runs in the last two seasons at a strike rate of more than 140 and can be dangerous at the top of the order.

Expert Advice:
