Weather Report

The weather for this match is likely to remain mostly sunny although there are some chances of showers coming down during the match.

Pitch Report

The pitch at this venue will offer a bit of assistance for the bowlers. The batsmen that enjoy playing their shots in batting-friendly conditions might not like to bat on this track. There is a tendency for the ball to grip the surface, especially in the second half of the game. This will also bring the spinners into the picture.

Notable stats

Trinbago Knight Riders leads the head-to-head 3-2 in the last 5 matches between the two teams.

This again points to the fact that this will be a closely fought affair with Trinbago Knight Riders having a slight advantage. Nothing much in it though.

Alzarri Joseph has a terrific record in CPL 2022.

Alzarri Joseph has bowled fast and accurately right throughout the competition. He has picked up 15 wickets from his last 10 games with a good strike rate of 15.53.

Team News

There aren’t any injury worries reported so far from either side.

Top Picks

Johnson Charles: Johnson Charles has been one of the top batters in CPL 2022. He has scored 304 runs from the 8 games he has played in the CPL. He has scored these runs at a strike rate of 138.18 and with a batting average of 43.43. He is one of our top picks to do well in this game.

Alzarri Joseph: This is the man in form with the ball in CPL 2022. Alzarri Joseph has picked up 15 wickets from the last 10 matches he played in the CPL. He has bowled with a slightly higher economy rate of 7.42 though. But if you can take 1.5 wickets per game it is acceptable for any skipper.

Roston Chase: Another batter that has done a fair job in the competition is Roston Chase. From the last 10 games of T20 cricket, he has scored 206 runs at an average of 20.60. He has scored these runs at a strike rate of 116.38. These are not great figures but he is doing well in the last few matches and this makes him a player to watch out for in CPL 2022.

David Wiese: David Wiese has done a great job in CPL 2022 for his outfit. He has picked up 15 wickets from his last 9 T20 matches. He is bowling with an amazing strike rate of 12.00 and with a decent economy rate of 7.53. Wiese can be expected to be among wickets again in this match.
