Who will win Guyana Amazon Warriors vs Barbados Tridents QF1, CPL 2019?
Unbeaten, table-topping Guyana Amazon Warriors take on second-placed Barbados Tridents in the first qualifier of the 2019 Caribbean Premier League play-offs. The match takes place at Providence Stadium on October 6 and the live action starts at 15:30 local time.
The Warriors won ten from ten in the group stage, topping the table after a string of impressive performances. With the Providence wicket spinning in the most recent fixtures there, Imran Tahir took 3-12 in a 77-run defeat of Jamaica Tallawahs and Chandrapaul Hemraj claimed 3-15 as they beat Trinbago Knight Riders by seven wickets to finish strongly.
Barbados Tridents also finished the group stage strongly, however – Johnson Charles’ half-century led them to a seven-wicket win against Trinbago Knight Riders, which proved enough to earn them second place on net run rate. The Tridents won three of their final four games, but they are still outsiders for this one.

Guyana Amazon Warriors Team News & Playing 11
GAW Team News
Qais Ahmad and Romario Shepherd did not play the final group game, with Odean Smith and Ben Laughlin recalled instead. Shepherd had not bowled in the final group game either. Ahmad could be recalled on a turning wicket, however.
GAW Key Players
Brandon King: Back in good form as he set the tone at the top of the order last time out, hitting 33 from 23 balls. It was a jump back to the excellent form he showed earlier in the tournament, when he hit three consecutive half-centuries.
Shoaib Malik: Finished the group stage strongly with two contrasting innings. He hit 73* in the win against Jamaica, as the Warriors recovered from 8/4, and then 28* last time out to hold an end as Nicholas Pooran batted them to victory at the other. He also took another wicket.
Imran Tahir: Wicketless last time out for the first time since his arrival at his tournament. He had taken 13 wickets in his previous six appearances, and will expect to add to that tally if the Providence Stadium wicket turns once again.
GAW Team Form
Guyana Amazon Warriors won all ten of their league phase fixtures, to become the first team in the Caribbean Premier League history to finish the group stage with a perfect record.
Their final two fixtures were at home, and they produced two commanding wins to continue their awesome momentum. Shoaib Malik’s 73* helped them recover from 8/4 to post 156/6 against Jamaica Tallawahs, before Imran Tahir took 3-12 as they skittled the visitors for 79.
Then, Chandrapaul Hemraj led the bowling, taking 3-15 as they restricted Trinbago Knight Riders to 143/5, before Nicholas Pooran’s unbeaten 54 helped them to a seven-wicket win.

Barbados Tridents Team News & Playing 11
BT Team News
The additions of Harry Gurney and Shakib Al Hasan helped Barbados Tridents finish the group stage of CPL 2019 strongly, and they were expecting to have Shai Hope fit for the play-offs too after he missed every game so far. Whoever he replaces will feel hard done by, but Jonathan Carter and Justin Greaves look the more likely to make way.
BT Key Players
Shakib Al Hasan: The Bangladeshi all-rounder was a late addition to the squad but he has wasted no time making an impact. Last time out, he took 2-25 to move to four wickets in three games. He has also scored 73 runs in that time.
Johnson Charles: Barbados Tridents have not missed Shai Hope because their wicket-keeper-batsman has been in excellent form himself. Charles finished the group stage with scores of 58, 13, 47 and 55 in his last four innings.
Harry Gurney: The English bowler has helped lead another team to the play-offs in a T20 competition. His 2-14 earned him the man of the match award last time out and means he has taken nine wickets in five games so far.
BT Team Form
Barbados Tridents won three of their last four games to climb up the table and into the play-offs. It is no coincidence that their upturn in form followed the arrival of the likes of Harry Gurney and Shakib Al Hasan. The former took 3-17 as they bowled St Lucia Zouks out for 117 in reply to 141/6 – though Hayden Walsh did outshine him with 4-26.
Then, Gurney and Shakib took two wickets apiece last time out as they restricted Trinbago Knight Riders to 134/8 before Johnson Charles’ half-century earned a seven-wicket win.
Barbados Tridents Predicted Playing 11
Johnson Charles, Alex Hales, Shakib Al Hasan, JP Duminy, Shai Hope, Ashley Nurse, Jonathan Carter, Raymon Reifer, Jason Holder, Hayden Walsh Jr, Harry Gurney
