Match Preview

We are just a couple of days into a fresh edition of the Caribbean Premier League, and we have already witnessed some exciting encounters. Another such contest awaits us on Sunday as Saint Lucia Kings seek to make a positive start to their campaign.

Saint Lucia Kings have retained most of their key players from the last season and will bank on them to deliver the goods yet again. The team is home to some of the biggest strikers of the ball and a well-balanced bowling unit.

On the other side is Antigua and Barbuda Falcons, who have been rather inconsistent over the last few seasons. That said, they also have a strong roster of potential match-winners and will hope to register their first win ever against Saint Lucia.

Injuries & Illnesses

There are no reports of injuries from either side.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The pitch at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium is on the slower side. The quicker bowlers will have to bend their backs to extract pace and bounce out of this surface, and need to rely on variations to get wickets. The batsmen need to settle down before they can start playing the big shots. The spinners can expect some help once the ball gets older.

The weather has remained overcast over the last few days, and we can expect some rain here on Sunday.
