Brandon King to score Under 20.5 runs

TKR vs BR Team Previews
Trinbago Knight Riders
With 3 wins in 4 games, the Trinbago Knight Riders are currently placed second on the points table, and a win here could take them to the top. They are coming into this match on the back of consecutive victories.
Trinbago’s strong batting line-up has been the driving force for its excellent run in this season. Colin Munro and Alex Hales make up for a strong and explosive opening pair and will look to give the team a solid start. Keacy Carty and Kieron Pollard have played well in the middle order and have contributed to the team’s success.
However, more will be expected from Nicholas Pooran. He has got a couple of good starts but has yet to play a big knock. In addition, Trinbago has some quality all-rounders, including Andre Russell and Sunil Narine, who add depth to the batting.
Coming to the bowling, Mohammad Amir bowled a brilliant spell in the last match to pick up 3 wickets and will spearhead the pace attack. He will be joined by Ali Khan and McKenney Clarke. The spin department is pretty strong as well.
Usman Tariq is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 8 wickets. He will be joined by Akeal Hosein and Sunil Narine.

Barbados Royals
The Barbados Royals’ latest fixture against was abandoned without a ball being bowled, forcing the two teams to share points. Nevertheless, the Barbados Royals remain winless and are at the bottom of the points table.
Brandon King and Quinton de Kock are likely to reprise their role at the top of the order. The form Brandon King has been a bit of a concern for Barbados, as he is yet to play a big knock. Quinton de Kock did score a half-century in the first match, but he lacks consistency.
Similarly, there are some big names in the middle order, including Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, and Kadeem Allyene. However, they are yet to play a match-winning role this season. The two seamers, Daniel Sams and Ramon Simmonds, have bowled well in patches, picking up 3 wickets each.
However, Eathan Bosch has struggled to keep the batsmen under pressure. Jomel Warrican remains the specialist spinner on the team.
