Who will win St Kitts vs St Lucia Zouks, CPL 2019?
Out-of-form St Kitts & Nevis Patriots host St Lucia Zouks at Warner Park in the latest Caribbean Premier League fixture. The match takes place on September 15 and the live action in Basseterre will begin at 18:00 local time.
The Patriots have lost their last two home games, giving them a record of one win in five games in total. Not even the return of Sheldon Cottrell, who had started the tournament in wicket-taking form before missing two matches, could inspire them to victory last time out.
St Lucia Zouks come into this game on the back of a win, meanwhile. They have not yet played a home game – this is their fourth away match in a row – but they did beat Jamaica Tallawahs at Sabina Park last time out. Rahkeem Cornwall was at his big-hitting best to inspire them to victory.

St Kitts & Nevis Team News & Playing 11
SNP Team News
Sheldon Cottrell returned to the team last time out after missing the last two matches, replacing Usama Mir, while Dominic Drakes retained his spot. Mohammad Hafeez opened the batting with Evin Lewis missing out, however.
SNP Key Players
Laurie Evans: The Englishman scored 41 and 64 in his first two matches and, although he scored slower last time out, his 26 from 21 balls was still one of the Patriots’ highest scores.
Devon Thomas: Anchored the Patriots’ win when these teams last met and may feel he has a point to prove after scoring one from seven balls last time out. He has hit two half-centuries at the top of the order in this tournament.
Sheldon Cottrell: Back in the team after missing two matches, he had taken four wickets in the first two games and will be keen to get back to that form as he continues an excellent year on a personal level.
SNP Team Form
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots have lost four of their five matches so far. Their one win was a notable one – chasing 242 to beat Jamaica Tallawahs by four wickets in their first home game – but they have lost their next two at Warner Park.
Chasing 187 to beat Barbados Tridents, Laurie Evans hit 64 but the Patriots could only post 168/9 and, last time out, they were bowled out for 121 against Guyana Amazon Warriors and suffered a seven-wicket defeat.
