SLK vs JAM T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, CPL 2022
Saint Lucia Kings and Jamaica Tallawahs go head to head in Match 9 of the 2022 Caribbean Premier League on Wednesday evening. The Kings are bottom of the table after losing both of their opening games. The Tallawahs have a 100% record and are top of the group. Read on as we preview this day-night game. The match gets underway at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground, Gros Islet, Saint Lucia at 19:00 local time.
Saint Lucia Kings are still looking for their first win of the campaign but saw many of their heavyweight players come into the XI for their last match. They will certainly be competitive in this fixture.
Jamaica Tallawahs have got off to an excellent start in the tournament and are currently playing excellent cricket. The form may not last all competition but they will be very hard to beat in this game.

With rain a distinct possibility before the match, we expect both captains to choose to field first and take advantage of the overhead conditions and moisture in the surface.

Saint Lucia Kings Team News & Playing 11
SLK Team News
Leroy Lugg, Ackeem Auguste, Matthew Forde and Kesrick Williams all lost their places in the team from the opening game with Faf du Plessis coming in as captain alongside Tim David, David Wiese and Preston McSween. This looks like the strongest XI available for the side.
SLK Key Players
- Faf du Plessis - The right handed opener scored two fours and four sixes in his first knock of the CPL 2022. He came straight from the Men’s Hundred where he hit one half-century against London Spirit.
- Scott Kuggeleijn - The New Zealander has used the CPL as the stage for his best performances over his career so far. He took 2-37 in the last game.
- Alzarri Joseph - The West Indian international leads the bowling attack for the Kings. He picked up the key wickets of Rahkeem Cornwall and Harry Tector against Barbados Royals.
SLK Team Form
The Kings have lost four of their last five CPL fixtures and defeat in this game will mean four successive losses.

Jamaica Tallawahs Team News & Playing 11
JAM Team News
The Tallawahs were unchanged across the two opening games of the tournament and their bowling attack has made use of the moisture in the pitch and the air in Basseterre. With Nepal captain Sandeep Lamichhane now available, we expect him to come into the team.
JAM Key Players
- Brandon King - The right handed opener has been one of the leading players for the Tallawahs in the opening games of the tournament and has scored 121 runs so far.
- Rovman Powell - The skipper hit an unbeaten 44 not out from 38 balls against Guyana in Match 4. He showed off his power hitting by scoring four sixes.
- Mohammad Amir - The left-arm quick bowler can blow hot and cold but he was excellent in the last match. He dismissed both opening batters and all-rounder Odean Smith.
JAM Team Form
Jamaica Tallawahs have got off to a brilliant start with a 47 run win over the Patriots and a four wicket win over the Amazon Warriors.
Jamaica Tallawahs Predicted Playing 11
