Trinbago Knight Riders Team News & Playing 11
TKR Team News
Sunil Narine and Ali Khan who were rested for the last game against Guyana Amazon Warriors are likely to return. Nikita Miller and Anderson Phillip appear to be the ones who will be making way for them. Kevon Cooper had a decent outing the other night and he could be retained for this game. The rest of the line-up for Trinbago Knight Riders is expected to remain unchanged.
TKR Key Players
While the opening pair of Colin Munro and Brendon McCullum hold the key to Trinbago's batting at the top, Darren Bravo and Denesh Ramdin are the key figures for their side in the middle order. Munro who is still leading the runs charts with five fifties to his name has a knock of 90 against Guyana Amazon Warriors this season. McCullum has had three big hits so far while Bravo scored 42 not-out last time. Fawad Ahmed has taken two wickets in each of the two games against the Warriors. The Australian leg-spinner has been the best bowler this CPL with 17 wickets in 10 matches and he is going to pose the biggest threat to the opposition. Ali Khan seems to be the next best option for the Knight Riders. The pacer from USA has taken 14 wickets in 9 matches which includes a three-wicket haul in the first encounter against the Warriors. The team will also expect strong contributions from Sunil Narine and Dwayne Bravo.
TKR Recent Form
Despite losing their last league game against Guyana Amazon Warriors, Trinbago Knight Riders managed to finish atop the CPL 2018 standings with 14 points. They won seven and lost three out of their ten matches. They had won six matches in a row before facing a heavy six-wicket defeat to the Warriors last time out. Batting has been the strength for the Knight Riders this season and they have scored 170 and above thrice in their last four matches.

Guyana Amazon Warriors Team News & Playing 11
GAW Team News
Guyana Amazon Warriors made three changes to their side for their previous encounter against Trinbago Knight Riders. They replaced Roshon Primus, Keemo Paul and Veerasammy Permaul with Rayad Emrit, Devendra Bishoo and Sherfane Rutherford. The Warriors won that game quite convincingly and so they may not want to make any changes to their line-up going into this match.
GAW Key Players
Shimron Hetmyer has shown fantastic form in this year's Caribbean Premier League and he has been amongst the most consistent batsmen of the tournament. He cracked 59 in the last game against the Knight Riders and he will be expected to continue from where he left off. Luke Ronchi is due for a big knock as he has scored just seven runs in his last three matches and there will also be plenty of hopes pinned on Sherfane Rutherford who smashed a 13-ball 45 last time. With the ball, the Warriors will be counting on Imran Tahir and Sohail Tanvir to do the job. Tahir is the second-highest wicket-taker of the season with 15 wickets in 10 matches while Tanvir has taken five in the two matches against Trinbago. Chris Green and Rayad Emrit are two other bowlers in this side who can surprise the opposition on their day.
GAW Recent Form
Guyana Amazon Warriors displayed a fabulous batting performance in their last league match against Trinbago Knight Riders to claim the second spot on the CPL 2018 points table. They finished with six wins and four losses from their ten games and have now won three of their last five matches. After a dismal batting effort against the Knight Riders at Port of Spain last week, the Warriors have put up strong performances with the bat in their last two games.
Guyana Amazon Warriors Predicted Playing 11
Luke Ronchi (wk), Cameron Delport, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Mohammed, Sherfane Rutherford, Chadwick Walton, Sohail Tanvir, Chris Green (c), Rayad Emrit, Devendra Bishoo, Imran Tahir
