GAW vs TKR Match Preview

Guyana Amazon Warriors may have been languishing near the bottom of the points table, they have done a splendid job to get back into the reckoning with a couple of solid wins in their last two matches. Another win here will pretty much push them to the next round and they will know that. With the confidence they would now have and a full-strength side available, they can certainly not be taken lightly.

 

Trinbago Knight Riders have been terrible in the tournament and it's been shocking to see the most consistent side in the history of the CPL play like they have. They have been far from their best even in the matches they have won and that speaks volumes about the gulf between their potential and performance in the tournament so far. That said, they have experience and class oozing right through and cannot be taken lightly in the match that matters the most for both the sides.

 

Weather Report

It's been raining over the last few days in Guyana and it's forecasted to rain over the next few days as well. Much to the fans' delight though, it is going to be bright and sunny on the match day with temperatures hovering around 29 degrees. It would be humid and fitness will be tested. However, we don't think that the weather conditions would have much impact on the decision at the toss or the game.

 

Pitch Report

The pitches and the surface conditions have been pretty sporting in the tournament so far and it is expected to be nothing different this time too. Spinners will have a big role to play in what is going to be a slowish surface. Batsmen once set can play through the line and go for the big ones. A total of around 160 would be about par in this high-pressure game.
