Barbados Tridents Team News & Playing 11
Barbados Team News
Barbados Tridents made a couple of changes to their side for the last game against Trinbago Knight Riders - they replaced Martin Guptill and Roston Chase with Shamar Springer and Tion Webster respectively. The team is expected to go in with an unchanged line-up for this game.
Barbados Key Players
Shai Hope is among the season's leading run-getters with 224 runs in five matches and the onus will be on him to take the Tridents off to a flying start. Steven Smith had smashed 63 off 44 balls in the earlier encounter against Jamaica Tallawahs and the team will want him to play a similar knock here. Dwayne Smith and Nicholas Pooran are also capable of scoring at a brisk rate. Raymon Reifer has been the most successful bowler for Barbados Tridents in this year's CPL. The pacer has taken eight wickets in five matches and he will be the go-to bowler along with Mohammad Irfan and Wahab Riaz, both of whom have five wickets each in as many matches.
Barbados Recent Form
Barbados Tridents are placed fifth on the CPL 2018 points table with two wins and three losses from five league matches. They have suffered defeats in their last two matches; a six-wicket defeat against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots before losing to table toppers Trinbago Knight Riders by four wickets.

Jamaica Tallawahs Team News & Playing 11
Jamaica Team News
Jamaica Tallawahs won their last match and we don't expect them to disturb their winning combination. No injuries in the team camp were reported at the time of writing.
Jamaica Key Players
Glenn Phillips is currently second on the CPL 2018 runs charts with 281 runs which includes a couple of half-centuries and he is going to be the key man for Jamaica Tallawahs. Johnson Charles scored 42 in the reverse fixture against Barbados Tridents while Rovman Powell is coming off a 37-ball 64 against St Lucia Stars. Andre Russell and Oshane Thomas are the top two bowlers this season with 13 and 11 wickets respectively and the pace duo will pose the biggest threat to the Tridents. Adam Zampa and Imad Wasim are two other bowlers in this line-up who can be expected to have a good outing in this match.
Jamaica Recent Form
Jamaica Tallawahs have won four and lost three out of the seven matches they have played so far in this year's Caribbean Premier League to be currently positioned second in the league standings. After losing three matches in a row - against Guyana Amazon Warriors, Trinbago Knight Riders and Barbados Tridents respectively -, the Tallawahs broke their losing streak with a 21-run victory over St Lucia Stars in their last match.
