Match Preview

The much-awaited second edition of the Global Super League is set to kick off this week. The Rangpur Riders, who are the defending champions, will play against the Guyana Amazon Warriors in match number two on Thursday.

The Amazon Warriors have some quality players on their side but they weren’t able to perform well as a team. However, they have made a few changes to the squad since then and they will hope to perform better. On the other side are the Rangpur Riders.

While they were a bit inconsistent during the group stage, they did peak just at the right time to lift the title.
