St Kitts & Nevis Team News & Playing 11
St Kitts & Nevis Team News
Joshua da Silva made his T20 debut batting at number three last time out, while new signing Chris Lynn slotted into to open the batting as expected. Despite the defeat, there could be few – if any – changes this time around, as it looks the strongest side on paper.
St Kitts & Nevis Key Players
- Chris Lynn: By his big-hitting standards, it was a slow start to his Patriots’ stint but the Australian opener is capable of fireworks up the order.
- Sohail Tanvir: The veteran paceman took 2-25 opening the bowling last time out and then hit 16* from ten balls with the bat, but his big-hitting came too late to impact the game.
- Sheldon Cottrell: Got the Patriots off to an outstanding start with two wickets in his first over last time out, on his way to figures of 2-16.
St Kitts & Nevis Team Form
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots made a losing start to the 2020 Caribbean Premier League, despite an excellent start with the ball against Barbados Tridents. Sheldon Cottrell and Rayad Emrit each finished with 2-16 from their four overs but the Tridents recovered to post 153/9 and the Patriots could only manage 147/5 in reply – a six-run defeat despite Joshua da Silva’s 41*.
St Kitts & Nevis Predicted Playing 11
Evin Lewis, Chris Lynn, Joshua da Silva, Ben Dunk, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Jamahr Hamilton, Sohail Tanvir, Rayad Emrit (c), Alzarri Joseph, Ish Sodhi, Sheldon Cottrell
