GAW vs BR Team Previews
Guyana Amazon Warriors
The Guyana Amazon Warriors have been clinical in their performance this season. Barring the solitary loss against the St. Lucia Kings, they have remained undefeated and are sitting comfortably at the top of the table. Irrespective of the outcome of this match, they will face the Trinbago Knight Riders in Qualifier 1 on Thursday.
Saim Ayub has been a solid performer at the top of the order and is the leading run-scorer for this season. The team has struggled to find a stable partner for him in the opening slot but has some options that they can play around with.
Shai Hope has done well in the number-3 slot, while Shimron Hetmeyer and Azam Khan will follow him in the middle order. The Amazon Warriors have plenty of all-rounders to choose from, including Keemo Paul, Romario Shepherd, Dwaine Pretorius, and Odean Smith, lending plenty of depth to the batting.
Shepherd and Pretorius have done an excellent job with the ball, picking up 21 wickets between them. The spin attack consists of Gudakesh Motie and Imran Tahir, both of whom are in good touch and are likely to play an important role in this game.

Saim Ayub, Shai Hope, Azam Khan, Shimron Hetmyer, Dwaine Pretorius, Kelvon Anderson, Ronsford Beaton, Odean Smith, Gudakesh Motie, Imran Tahir, Shamar Joseph.
Barbados Royals
The Barbados Royals were the runners-up in the last season but have struggled to carry on with that form this time around. They are currently 5th on the points table. If they lose this match, they will be eliminated. Even if they do manage to win, their qualification will depend on the outcome of the Jamaica vs St. Lucia fixture.
It has been a pretty average performance from most of the players. Rahkeem Cornwall scored a century against the Patriots earlier this month but otherwise hasn’t been able to do much in terms of runs scored. Kyle Mayers has been out of form for quite some time now and will need to come up with something special.
There are some quality batsmen in the middle order including Rovman Powell, Laurie Evans, and Alick Athanaze but they have failed to play a big inning. Coming to the bowling, Jason Holder has been excellent this season and is leading the charts with 14 wickets.
Carlos Braithwaite has recently joined the squad and picked a four-for in the reverse fixture against Amazon Warriors and will be hoping to replicate that performance. The other bowlers however haven’t been consistent enough.

Pitch and Conditions
The pitch is a bit on the dry side and there are some patches of grass. The ball will grip the surface and there will be some movement for the seamers early on. However, the surface should settle down as the match progresses. The spinners will find some assistance throughout the match.
A score of around 180 can be a competitive total.

The Amazon Warriors are in excellent form this season and we expect them to continue playing well. The Barbados Royals on the other hand have struggled throughout and will find it difficult to face a quality opposition like the Warriors.
Bet on the Guyana Amazon Warriors to win.
Bonus Cricket Bets
The Amazon Warriors have two quality players in the form of Saim Ayub and Shai Hope among the top 3. They are in good form and capable of scoring quick runs. On the other hand, the Barbados Royals haven’t done well with the bat.
Just 1 of the 4 matches played so far on this ground have seen 13 or more wickets fall. The surface is good to bat on and we, therefore, think that it is unlikely to see over 12 wickets fall.
All the 4 matches played on this ground this season have seen at least 25 boundaries being scored. We are therefore predicting a similar outcome for this match.
