Who will win Guyana Amazon Warriors vs Barbados Tridents, CPL 2019?
Guyana Amazon Warriors will look to end their first phase of home fixtures with a third consecutive win, when they take on Barbados Tridents in the Caribbean Premier League at Providence Stadium. The match takes place on September 8 and the live action starts at 17:00 local time.
The Warriors were runners-up last season and have started this campaign in winning fashion; Chris Green’s all-round form earned them a 13-run win against St Lucia Zouks while Shimron Hetmyer’s batting led them to an eight-wicket defeat of St Kitts & Nevis Patriots.
Barbados Tridents are yet to start their campaign but that has played into their hands a little – Alex Hales was late flying out, having fired Notts Outlaws into the T20 Blast Finals Day, so their key batsmen will arrive in outstanding form.

Guyana Amazon Warriors Team News & Playing 11
GAW Team News
Shoaib Malik passed a fitness test after copping a nasty blow to the hand at the non-striker’s end in the first match. He did not suffer a fracture and so the Warriors were unchanged last time out, as they could be again for this third match.
GAW Key Players
Shimron Hetmyer: Guyana Amazon Warriors’ top runscorer last season was straight back into his stride with an unbeaten 70 from 47 balls last time out, ensuring they got to 159/2 and an eight-wicket win in just 18.5 overs.
Nicholas Pooran: Not required with the bat last time out, having been out for a first-baller in the first game. It has been an inauspicious start, but you write the big-hitting wicket-keeper-batsman off at your peril.
Shadab Khan: One of the top draft picks for this season’s competition, the Pakistani spinner has taken 3-16 and 2-20 in the two matches so far to prove a worthy replacement for Rashid Khan.
GAW Team Form
Guyana Amazon Warriors have started the 2019 Caribbean Premier League in excellent form. Shadab Khan, Romario Shepherd and Chris Green were key with the ball as they restricted St Lucia Zouks to 142 all out, in reply to 155/9, to win their first game.
Then, last time out, Khan took 2-20 to help hold St Kitts & Nevis Patriots to 153/8, before Shimron Hetmyer smashed an unbeaten 70 to seal an eight-wicket Warriors win.

Barbados Tridents Team News & Playing 11
BT Team News
From their initial squad selection, international commitments have forced Barbados Tridents into a couple of changes – JP Duminy and Josh Lalor replacing Wahab Riaz and Imad Wasim. Alex Hales was their first-round draft pick while other eye-catching selections included Sandeep Lamichhane’s arrival.
BT Key Players
Alex Hales: Flew out to the Caribbean on the back of a superb innings for Notts Outlaws – smashing 83* to lead them to the T20 Blast Finals Day – and the Tridents will hope he can therefore pick up where he left off.
Sandeep Lamichhane: Though he is inconsistent, the teenage Nepalese spinner has made a big impression on T20 franchise tournaments across the globe. He has taken 64 T20 wickets in 48 matches in total.
Josh Lalor: Signed to replace Wahab Riaz, the Aussie quick earned this gig after some excellent left-arm pace bowling in the Big Bash – including 15 wickets in his last six matches.
BT Team Form
Barbados Tridents are yet to start their 2019 Caribbean Premier League campaign, but they will be looking for a vast improvement on last season’s performances. They were bottom of the pile 12 months ago, winning just two of their ten matches. That included losing their last seven games in a row.
Barbados Tridents Predicted Playing 11
Alex Hales, Johnson Charles, Shai Hope (wk), Jonathan Carter, JP Duminy, Asif Ali, Jason Holder (c), Raymon Reifer, Ashley Nurse, Chemar Holder, Sandeep Lamichhane
