Barbados Tridents vs Jamaica Tallawahs, CPL 2020
Defending champions Barbados Tridents will bid to end their three-game losing streak when they take on Jamaica Tallawahs in the 2020 Caribbean Premier League. The match, at the Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain, takes place on August 26 and the live action starts at 17:30 local time.
The Tridents won the opening game of their title defence, but have since lost three in a row. They lost a rain-affected match to St Lucia Zouks next up and have not managed to bounce back – failing to defend 151/7 in a six-wicket loss to St Kitts & Nevis Patriots last time out.
Jamaica Tallawahs, meanwhile, won their opening game and after two consecutive defeats they got back to winning ways last time out. They fell short in a low chase against Guyana Amazon Warriors in their previous match but got revenge in similar circumstances as they chased 109 to win by five wickets with two overs to spare last time out. They have now won two games – the same amount they managed in the whole of last season.

Barbados Tridents Team News & Playing 11
Barbados Tridents Team News
Nyeem Young made his T20 debut last time out, but his inclusion ahead of Jonathan Carter – the Tridents’ only change so far – could not end their losing streak. They may need another rethink.
Barbados Tridents Key Players
- Rashid Khan: The Afghan spinner remains the foremost T20 bowler in world cricket and he has five wickets from three games in this tournament already.
- Jason Holder: Moved up the batting order having already scored 101 runs so far in this tournament and then bowled brilliantly to claim 1-18 from his four overs last time out.
- Johnson Charles: After a half-century in the previous game, he was more subdued last time out but he still hit 24 in a 50-run opening partnership.
Barbados Tridents Team Form
After defending 153/9 in a six-run defeat of St Kitts & Nevis Patriots first up, Barbados Tridents have not won since. They lost a rain-shortened game against St Lucia Zouks and then fell short chasing 186 to beat Trinbago Knight Riders in the next match. Last time out, they hit 151/7 against St Kitts & Nevis Patriots but lost by six wickets with three balls to spare, despite having got themselves into what appeared a winning position.
Barbados Tridents Predicted Playing 11
Johnson Charles, Shai Hope (wk), Corey Anderson, Kyle Mayers, Jason Holder (c), Jonathan Carter, Mitchell Santner, Rashid Khan, Ashley Nurse, Raymon Reifer, Hayden Walsh Jr
Jamaica Tallawahs Team News & Playing 11
Jamaica Tallawahs Team News
Oshane Thomas dropped out again last time out and the Tallawahs’ win could encourage them to stick with the same XI.
Jamaica Tallawahs Key Players
- Glenn Phillips: A strong start with the bat continued as he hit 26 from 18 balls at the top of the order last time out to set a good tone from the start.
- Andre Russell: An excellent all-round performance in the previous game did not pay off, but he took 1-17 and then hit 23* from 20 balls to continue his form last time out.
- Mujeeb Ur Rahman: His last two matches have seen him take 3-18 and 3-11 with the ball, and he already has nine wickets in the tournament this season.
Jamaica Tallawahs Team Form
Jamaica Tallawahs’ wins against St Lucia Zouks and, last time out, Guyana Amazon Warriors book-end defeats to Trinbago Knight Riders and the Amazon Warriors in between. After a low-scoring loss to Guyana, despite Andre Russell’s unbeaten half-century, in the previous game, they managed another low chase much better last time out. Mujeeb Ur Rahman’s 3-11 helped limit Guyana to 108/9 and the Tallawahs claimed a five-wicket win with two overs to spare.
Jamaica Tallawahs Predicted Playing 11
Glenn Phillips (wk), Chadwick Walton, Jermaine Blackwood, Asif Ali, Andre Russell, Rovman Powell (c), Carlos Brathwaite, Nkrumah Bonner, Fidel Edwards, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Sandeep Lamichhane
