Toss Prediction
The last five T20 matches (including the two recent T20 internationals between West Indies and Bangladesh) played at Lauderhill have all been won by the side batting first. Since the wicket at this venue tends to favor the batsmen more early on, the team that wins the toss here on Saturday will most probably elect to bat first.

Jamaica Tallawahs Team News & Playing 11
JT Team News
Jamaica Tallawahs dropped Johnson Charles and brought in off-spinner Steven Jacobs for their last match against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots. Kennar Lewis opened the batting with Glenn Phillips and the duo put up a 64-run partnership. The new opening combination worked for them last time which means Lewis could open once again. We expect the Tallawahs to go into this game with an unchanged line-up.
JT Key Players
Kennar Lewis and Glenn Phillips have both hit a half-century in CPL 2018. The opening pair stitched a 64-run partnership in the last game against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and the Tallawahs will want these two to continue their good form. Ross Taylor is coming off an unbeaten 51 off 35 balls while skipper Andre Russell had smoked a 49-ball 121* against Trinbago Knight Riders. The latter is among the season's leading wicket-takers with six wickets which also makes him a key figure in this bowling line-up. Krishmar Santokie was the pick of the bowlers last time with figures of 2-13 from four overs and the paceman will be backed by his team to provide the early breakthroughs. Adam Zampa and Imad Wasim are the others who can strangle the Warriors with their tight spells.
JT Recent Form
Jamaica Tallawahs could not have asked for a better start to their CPL 2018 campaign. They have beaten Trinbago Knight Riders, St Lucia Stars and St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in their first three league encounters and are currently topping the points table with six points. In their last game against the Patriots, the Tallawahs put up an allround performance to register a convincing win by 47 runs.
Jamaica Tallawahs Predicted Playing 11
Glenn Phillips (wk), Kennar Lewis, Andre McCarthy, Rovman Powell, Ross Taylor, Andre Russell (c), Imad Wasim, Steven Jacobs, Krishmar Santokie, Adam Zampa, Oshane Thomas
Guyana Amazon Warriors Team News & Playing 11
GAW Team News
Guyana Amazon Warriors do not have to deal with any injury issues ahead of their clash against Jamaica Tallawahs. They have gone with the same group of eleven in their first three matches and we don't see them making any changes to their side for this game either.
GAW Key Players
Openers Chadwick Walton and Luke Ronchi are both dangerous batsmen in the shortest format and they hold the key to Guyana's batting. Ronchi had smashed 70 runs off just 33 balls when they last faced Jamaica and he will be expected to replicate that match-winning performance here. Apart from these two, the Warriors will also rely on skipper Shoaib Malik and Shimron Hetmyer who has so far scored the most runs for them. Imran Tahir is currently the team's leading wicket-taker with four wickets and he did a pretty good job in the last match against Barbados Tridents as well. Keemo Paul too has been among the wickets and it will be crucial that he provides good support to Tahir. Sohail Tanvir has not looked at his best and the Warriors will be hoping that he returns to form on Saturday.
GAW Recent Form
Guyana Amazon Warriors are placed second on the CPL 2018 leaderboard with two wins and a loss in three league matches. They beat St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and St Lucia Stars by six wickets and three runs respectively in their first two encounters before suffering a 30-run defeat at the hands of Barbados Tridents in their last match. They had an off day with the ball last time and could not prevent the Tridents from reaching a big total of 185 despite having them at 11-2 in the second over.
Guyana Amazon Warriors Predicted Playing 11
Luke Ronchi (wk), Chadwick Walton, Shimron Hetmyer, Shoaib Malik (c), Sherfane Rutherford, Chris Green, Jason Mohammed, Sohail Tanvir, Keemo Paul, Rayad Emrit, Imran Tahir
