PITCH AND CONDITIONS
Thunderstorms are forecast earlier in the day in Guyana but should clear later on. The chance of rain is around 30 percent, so the game may get lucky anyway.
Even the part-time spinners were in the wickets at Guyana in the final league games. The pitch is a turning one and pace off should be key.
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots
- The Patriots could be unchanged from their thrilling win against Barbados Tridents in their final league game.
- Mohammad Hafeez opened with Evin Lewis, while Dominic Drakes’ excellent final over should earn him more game time.
- St Kitts & Nevis Patriots have won just one of their five matches so far.
- Since Rahkeem Cornwall starred in their win against Jamaica Tallawahs, they have lost the last two in a row.
- St Kitts & Nevis Patriots needed fewer than 15 overs to beat the Zouks after St Lucia could only post 138/9 in their next game the Patriots winning by six wickets.
- And their batting fell well short again last time out, as they were carted for 101 in reply to Barbados Tridents’ 172/6.
PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF St Kitts & Nevis Patriots
Mohammad Hafeez, Evin Lewis, Shamarh Brooks, Laurie Evans, Devon Thomas, Carlos Brathwaite, Fabian Allen, Keron Cottoy, Dominic Drakes, Rayad Emrit, Sheldon Cottrell
Trinbago Knight Riders
- With Sunil Narine out, Trinbago Knight Riders have experimented with pinch hitters in the last two games but both Jimmy Neesham and Javon Searles have failed in that role.
- Akeal Hosein came into the team last time out and with this match on the same ground, it could be an unchanged team.
- Trinbago Knight Riders have lost their last four matches in a row.
- That includes defeats home and away to Guyana Amazon Warriors and a loss to Barbados Tridents in between.
- Last time out, at Providence Stadium, Trinbago posted 143/5 from their 20 overs but it proved well below par the Knight Riders losing by seven wickets against the unbeaten league leaders.
PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF Trinbago Knight Riders
Lendl Simmons, Javon Searles, Colin Munro, Kieron Pollard (c), Darren Bravo, Jimmy Neesham, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Chris Jordan, Khary Pierre, Anderson Phillip, Akeal Hosein
