Central Castries vs Mon Repos Stars, St Lucia T10 Blast
Central Castries Mindhood and Mon Repos Stars meet in the Dream 11 St Lucia T10 Blast, with both teams looking to bounce back from their defeat in the first match of the second group stage. The game takes place at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground on July 4 and the live action starts at 14:00 local time.
Central Castries Mindhood won three from four in the group stage, with their only defeat coming against Gros Islet Cannon Blasters. They fell well short with the bat against South Castries Lions last time out, however – a score of 70/5 was never going to be enough, and they lost by nine wickets.
Mon Repos Stars’ only first-round defeat was against the Lions, but they lost to the Cannon Blasters last time out. Losing key opener Shervin Charles cheaply did not help their cause as they could only reach 91/5 in reply to 115/4.

CCMH Team News
Tyler Sookwa and Keygan Arnold missed out again last time out but after a heavy defeat, Central Castries might consider some changes.
CCMH Key Players
- Ackeem Auguste: The rising teenage star ended the first group stage in the sort of form he needs to replicate more consistently as he develops.
- Stephen Naitram: Capable of useful runs at the top of the order, he will want to get back to a good scoring rate in this match.
- Alleyn Prospere: Key with bat and ball, as he proved in the final first-round game, he can score big runs and opens the bowling too.
CCMH Team Form
Central Castries Mindhood won three of their four matches in the first group stahe – their only loss a heavy one against Gros Islet Cannon Blasters. After beating Vieux Fort North Raiders by a handsome margin, thanks to Alleyn Prospere’s all-round performance, they started this group stage with a defeat, however.
After limping to just 70/5 with nobody scoring faster than a run-a-ball, they suffered a nine-wicket defeat with two overs to spare.

MRS Team News
Dichege Henry returned last time out, but Evanus Emmanuel kept his place. Henry’s expensive bowling could mean it was only a brief return, however – Kendal Samuel may be back this time.
MRS Key Players
- Shervin Charles: A first-baller and one from five balls has been quite the comedown, having previously been in excellent batting form, but he can bounce back.
- Sabinus Emmaneul: More consistent alongside Charles at the top of the order. The only criticism would be the speed he score at as he added another 20 to his tally last time out.
- Kevin Augustin: Has a good record for early wickets and he added some batting form to it last time out as he bludgeoned 22* from seven balls to add some respectability to the scorecard.
MRS Team Form
Mon Repos Stars won three from four in the first group stage, with their only blip a narrow defeat to South Castries Lions, in which they fell short in the final over. They started this round with a defeat too, however, as they could only post 91/5 in reply to 115/4 against Gros Islet Cannon Blasters.
Mon Repos Stars Predicted Playing 11
Shervin Charles, Sabinus Emmanuel (wk), Mervin Wells, Kevin Augustin, Rohan Lesmond, Keon Gaston, Sadrack Descartes, Hazel Charlery, Evanus Emmanuel, Kendal Samuel, Garey Mathurin
