GAWW vs BRW Match Preview
Sophie Devine exhibited exceptional form for Guayana, achieving the first-ever century in Women's CPL, remaining unbeaten with a score of 103 runs from a mere 64 deliveries. She received commendable support from Stafanie Taylor and Suzie Bates, and is poised to deliver another impressive performance.
The Warriors possess a formidable batting lineup, with Natasha McLean and Shemaine Campbelle to follow. However, the bowling department was a significant disappointment, with all bowlers, except for Devine and Shabnim Ismail, proving to be quite expensive.
Shreyanka Patil and Karishma Ramharack conceded over 10 runs per over, while Cherry Ann-Fraser, who was among the top 5 wicket-takers last season, gave away 31 runs in just 2 overs.
Gaby Lewis and Hayley Matthews comprise an exceptional opening pair and are poised to provide Barbados with a robust start. Lewis has been the leading run-scorer for the team thus far. Rashada Williams, Erin Burns, and Laura Harris will be featured in the middle order.
Burns has demonstrated promising beginnings, but must endeavor to play a more extended innings and remain at the crease until the end. With regards to the bowling, the spinners have performed admirably for the Barbados Royals. Amanda Jade-Wellington and Erin Burns have each taken three wickets, while Hayley Matthews has two wickets to her credit.
However, the seamers have encountered some difficulties, as Aaliyah Alleyne and Chinelle Henry have only managed to secure one wicket between them.
Weather Report
The weather is expected to be warm and humid.
Pitch Report
The pitch at Bridgetown is well-balanced. There is some amount of movement for the seamers, and the spinners will manage to get some turn from the dry surface. However, as the match progresses, the pitch will get easier to bat on.
The team batting first will need to score at least 160 to give the bowlers a good chance.
Notable stats
