South Castries Lions vs Gros Islet Cannon Blasters, St Lucia T10 Blast
One winning streak will be ended when the top two teams in the Dream 11 St Lucia T10 Blast meet at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground on July 4. South Castries Lions take on Gros Islet Cannon Blasters, with the match set to start at 12:00 local time.
Both teams go into the game with five wins from five so far – Daren Sammy and Johnson Charles playing their part for the South Castries Lions. Kester Charlermagne’s bowling has been their key asset though, and he took another three wickets to keep up his and his team’s good form in a dominant win against Central Castries Mindhood last time out.
Gros Islet Cannon Blasters have been in stunning batting form, meanwhile. Kimani Melius and Tarryck Gabriel have shared two monster partnerships at the top of the order and Garvin Serieux is in top form too. The latter top-scored for the third time last time out – hitting 40 in a total of 115/4 against Mon Repos Stars. In reply, the Stars could only reach 91/5.

SCL Team News
Malcolm Monrose continued in place of Noelle Leo last time out and the Lions could be unchanged again for this game.

- Kester Charlemagne: Took 3-9 last time out to move to nine wickets in five games, with his superb bowling also including a match-winning final over against Mon Repos Stars.
- Johnson Charles: Hammered 42* from 20 balls last time out to ease South Castries to victory and get back to his big-hitting best.
- Daren Sammy: In his only innings so far, he returned to the team and smashed 40*. If called upon, he can score big runs, quickly.
SCL Team Form
South Castries Lions won four from four in the first group stage and started the second round with a win too. Key players from the first group, including Kester Charlermagne, stepped up against Central Castries Mindhood. Charlermagne took 3-9 to restrict Central Castries to 70/5 and Johnson Charles’ 42* ensured they made light work of rounding off a nine-wicket win.

GICB Team News
Kymani Sexius and Jard Goodman returned to the team last time out and Goodman’s batting performance should secure his place for another game at least. Sexius picked up a wicket too, so the Cannon Blasters could be unchanged.
GICB Key Players
- Kimani Melius: Started the tournament with an unbeaten century and also has a 73* to his name from his two massive partnerships with Tarryck Gabriel.
- Tarryck Gabriel: Two unbeaten half-centuries, with a top-score of 84*, have made for an impressive partnership with Melius. He is also an option with the ball.
- Garvin Serieux: Not needed with the bat in two games, as Melius and Gabriel starred, but his score of 40 from 22 balls last time out means he has now top-scored in each of the other three.
GICB Team Form
If it is not Kimani Melius and Tarryck Gabriel going ballistic at the top of the order, it is Garvin Serieux scoring quick runs in the middle order instead. Either way, Gros Islet Cannon Blasters’ batting has been exceptional so far to help them to five consecutive wins. Most recently, they posted 115/4 against Mon Repos Stars and restricted them to 91/5 in reply.
Gros Islet Predicted Playing 11
Kimani Melius (c), Tarryck Gabriel, Jard Goodman, Garvin Serieux, Vernillius Gabriel, Dornan Edward, Tyrel Chicot, Larry Edwards, Dalton Polius, Kymani Sexius, Simeon Gerson

🏆 South Castries vs Gros Islet Prediction
Both teams have won five from five so far, but the key battle will be South Castries’ top bowlers against Gros Islet’s big hitters. The Cannon Blasters have good depth to their batting, however, and they could upset the odds.
