Barbados Royals |Following their first win of the season, Barbados Royals lost 3 consecutive games before registering another win that came in their last outing. A struggling batting order finally came through batting first against Guyana. Johnson Charles, Glenn Phillips, and Jason Holder all made significant contributions to lead the Royals to 185 runs. Azam Khan, who has made it to the Pakistan T20 World Cup squad hasn’t been in good touch in the middle-order. After batting at numbers 5 and 6, Khan was promoted to number 3 in the last game where he managed to score just 4 runs. Another major change in the Royals lineup was Kyle Mayers replacing Shai Hope as the opening partner of Johnson Charles. Wicket-keeper batsman from India, Smit Patel is a crucial middle-order batsman who scored a fifty at number 3 against SNP. In the lower-middle order, Glenn Phillips and Jason Holder will be expected to deliver significant performance. Azam Khan and Smit Patel are tentative at 3 and 4, and hence, Phillips and Holder in the lower-middle order while Johnson Charles at the top will be the ones to watch out for. Nyeem Young starred with the ball in the Royals’ second win of the season. Raymon Reifer and Mohammad Amir are other pacers to watch out for in this bowling attack. Trinbago Knight Riders |The defending champions are back to winning ways with 3 wins and a tie in their last 4 matches. They are in a comfortable position to make it to the semi-finals with 8 points from 7 matches so far. Lendl Simmons and Kieron Pollard look in good touch and are scoring consistently which is great news for Knight Riders. While Colin Munro’s strike rate can be a concern for TKR, they can rely on him for stabilising the innings in case of a few early setbacks. Tim Seifert, on the other hand, seems to have found his new position in the batting order working quite well for him. Since Pollard has promoted himself to number 4 and DM Bravo follows at number 5, by the time Seifert arrives at the crease, the situation is likely to look better allowing the New Zealander to play freely. Another major change in the TKR batting lineup was Leonardo Julien opening the innings alongside Simmons while Narine was pushed down the order. Though Julien didn’t have a great time scoring just 17 off 25 balls, Sunil Narine hasn’t been in great shape either and is better off lower down the order. Nevertheless, Narine is in good form with the ball and is a key wicket-taker in the side along with Akeal Hossein and Ravi Rampaul. Other bowlers to watch out for in this side are Khary Piere and Ali Khan.
Trinbago Knight Riders are favourites to win this match Barbados Royals are up against an in-form team that has the momentum on its side. While Jason Holder’s team sealed a win in their last match, the Royals haven’t been consistent in CPL T20 this year. BR’s batting isn’t reliable and their chances of successfully chasing a competitive total against the TKR bowling attack aren’t great. As a result, not only do the betting sites have valued Knight Riders at 1.63 odds indicating a higher chance of a TKR win, but our match prediction also backs Trinbago to be the favourites to win.
