GAW vs TKR Team Previews
Guyana Amazon Warriors
The Guyana Amazon Warriors are on a roll this season. They are currently placed at the top of the points table and have the best NRR among all teams. The Guyana Amazon Warriors are coming into this contest on the back of 4 consecutive wins and will be eager to keep the momentum going.
Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Azam Khan gave the team a brisk start in the previous match and laid the foundation for a match-winning total against St. Lucia Kings.
Shimron Hetmeyer and Shai Hope will feature in the middle order and are among the most explosive batsmen in the league, while all-rounders like Romario Shepherd, Moeen Ali, and Dwaine Pretorius add depth to the batting.
The bowling, especially the spin department, has been one of Guyana’s biggest strengths. Gudakesh Motie is 2nd on the list of leading wicket-takers of the season with 16 wickets and has received excellent support from Imran Tahir and Moeen Ali, who have picked up 24 wickets between them.
The pace attack will be headlined by Keemo Paul, Dwaine Pretorius, and Romario Shepherd.

Trinbago Knight Riders
The Trinbago Knight Riders started off well but haven’t been in the best of forms over the last couple of weeks. Nevertheless, they have already qualified for the playoffs and are currently placed 3rd on the table.
Despite missing some key players due to injuries, the Knight Riders have plenty of bench strength, especially when it comes to batting. However, some of the batsmen have yet to play to their full potential. Nicholas Pooran remains the leading run-scorer for the team and has scored 312 runs at an average of 39.00.
He is the most important player in the middle order. While the likes of Kieron Pollard, Keacy Carty, Andre Russell, and Tim David have played a couple of good knocks, they have been a bit inconsistent. Trinbago expects Jason Roy and Shaqkere Pierre to have a good start. Coming to the bowling, the team is still awaiting the full recovery of their ace spinner, Sunil Narine.
His absence means there will be plenty of responsibility on Akeal Hosein. The latter picked up 3 wickets in the previous game and played a vital role in defeating the Barbados Royals. Waqar Salamkheil is the best seamer on the squad with 12 wickets. He will be joined by Chris Jordan and Terrance Hinds.

Bonus Cricket Bets
The pitch at the Providence Stadium does provide the batsmen plenty of opportunities to play their shots. The boundaries here aren’t the longest and the outfield is fast as well. Each of the last 2 games played here has seen at least 25 4s scored. As both teams have some good hitters of the ball, we are expecting plenty of boundaries.
Shimron Hetmeyer is in good form this season and is averaging 43.00 after 9 innings. He has scored 21 or more runs in 5 of his last 8 innings, including 4 half-centuries. 3 of those half-centuries have come on this ground and that’s why we are backing him to play another good knock.
