Jamaica Tallawahs Team News & Playing 11
JT Team News
Jamaica Tallawahs dropped leg-spinner Samuel Badree and brought in bowling allrounder Steven Taylor in their last match against Trinbago Knight Riders. Taylor had an ordinary outing in that game and we feel the team could bring back Badree for this encounter against Barbados Tridents. No further changes are expected in their side for this match.
JT Key Players
Glenn Phillips is looking in great touch with two half-centuries in five games, including a 55-ball 80 in the last game against Trinbago Knight Riders. The opener is amongst the season's top five batsmen and is one of the key figures in this formidable batting line-up. David Miller too is coming off a stellar 72* off just 34 balls while Kennar Lewis and Andre Russell are both having a strike-rate of over 160. Russell, the skipper, has led from the front with the ball. The allrounder is leading the wickets charts with nine wickets and he will pose a big threat to the opposition. Oshane Thomas, with eight wickets in four matches, has been Trinbago's next best bowler and he along with Imad Wasim who was the pick of the bowlers last time with figures of 2-17 from four overs are the others to watch out for.
JT Recent Form
Jamaica Tallawahs are currently third in the CPL 2018 league standings with three wins and two defeats from five matches. They got off to a brilliant start this season with wins in their first three fixtures but seem to be losing their way with defeats in their next two matches. After losing to Guyana Amazon Warriors by 71 runs, the Tallawahs then went down by four wickets in their last game against Trinbago Knight Riders.

Barbados Tridents Team News & Playing 11
BT Team News
Bowling allrounder Imran Khan was replaced by Hashim Amla in the last game against St Lucia Stars and the latter is likely to be retained for this upcoming match against Jamaica Tallawahs. None of the players from Barbados Tridents have been reported to be injured and we expect the team to go in with an unchanged line-up.
BT Key Players
Barbados Tridents will bank on the likes of Martin Guptill, Dwayne Smith, Hashim Amla and Steven Smith to score the big runs for them. Shai Hope is currently their leading run-getter this season and he too can make a significant contribution on his day. Dwayne Smith struck a fifty in the last game against St Lucia Stars and the team will want him to keep up the good work. Raymon Reifer and Wahab Riaz shared five wickets between them in that game and these two seem to be the main threats in this bowling attack. Reifer has now taken seven wickets in two matches and he could finish with the best figures for the Tridents in this match. Jason Holder and Mohammad Irfan are experienced campaigners and the onus will be on them to provide the early breakthroughs.
BT Recent Form
Barbados Tridents have won one and lost one out of the two matches they have played so far and find themselves one place below Jamaica Tallawahs on the fourth spot on the points table. They beat Guyana Amazon Warriors by 30 runs in their campaign opener at the Providence Stadium but suffered a 38-run loss at the hands of St Lucia Stars in their last match. The Tridents were lacklustre with the ball last time, conceding 226 runs to the Stars after electing to bowl first.
Barbados Tridents Predicted Playing 11
Dwayne Smith, Martin Guptill, Hashim Amla, Steven Smith, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Shai Hope, Jason Holder (c), Raymon Reifer, Wahab Riaz, Ashley Nurse, Mohammad Irfan
