Preview:
Trinbago Knight Riders will take on Guyana Amazon Warriors for the 2nd time in this tournament. Trinbago Knight Riders have already seen ups and downs in this year’s CPL having won 2 and lost 2 matches. 4-time champions beat St Lucia Kings by 27 runs on Tuesday to claim their 2nd victory. They still placed themselves at 3rd spot in the standings with 4 points.
Guyana Amazon Warriors are not in great shape at the moment having lost two back-to-back matches against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots. Not enough runs on the board were the reason behind the losses. Experimenting with Mohammad Hafeez to open the innings against St Kitts turned out to be masterstroke for Warriors, as the veteran batter didn’t miss out on the opportunity to score runs.
