Trinbago Knight Riders Team News & Playing 11
Brendon McCullum has been ruled out for the remainder of the CPL with a fractured elbow and it will now be up to Colin Munro to provide a good start to the innings. While Munro will be the key at the top, Denesh Ramdin who hit an unbeaten fifty earlier against the Patriots will be the one to watch out for in the middle order. Shadab Khan and Dwayne Bravo are the major threats in Trinbago's bowling attack. They have picked up 12 wickets from 7 matches and 11 wickets from 10 matches respectively.

Dwayne Bravo (c), Daniel Christian, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Darren Bravo, Sunil Narine, Robert Frylinck, Ashley Nurse, Colin Munro, Javon Searles, Shadab Khan, Anderson Phillip
St Kitts & Nevis Team News & Playing 11
They have a strong top-order batting with the likes of Chris Gayle and Evin Lewis who have done a great job for their side this season. Gayle blasted a 47-ball 93 against the Knight Riders earlier in a league match while Lewis will be coming off the back of an incredible 32-ball 97 against the Tridents in the last game. Among the bowlers, Mohammad Nabi and Carlos Brathwaite have been the most impressive. Both have taken nine wickets each from ten games and they will be the best bets for the Patriots when it comes to bowling.

Trinbago vs St Kitts Betting Odds
It's a little surprising to see Betfair having set St Kitts and Nevis Patriots as favorites to win the first qualifier at such short odds of 1.03. They have been beaten by the Trinbago Knight Riders twice in this year's Caribbean Premier League and they also finished one place behind them on the points table. 1xbet is offering a higher price of 1.67 on the Knight Riders and this could be because the team will be playing without their star batsman Brendon McCullum.
Trinbago vs St Kitts Prediction
Trinbago Knight Riders have a win percentage of 83.34 against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots with five wins from six encounters in the past. Both the matches this season as well as their last match-up in the previous season have all been won by the Knight Riders, meaning that they have defeated the Patriots the last three times they have faced them. Trinbago will fancy their chances with the inclusion of Australian veteran Daniel Christian into the side who has just led Nottinghamshire to their maiden title in the recently concluded NatWest T20 Blast. We thus predict Trinbago Knight Riders to win this contest.
Final Verdict: Back Trinbago Knight Riders to beat St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in the 1st qualifier of the Caribbean Premier League 2017 at 1.67 with 1xbet.
