TKR vs SLK Team Previews
Trinbago Knight Riders
After being rather inconsistent during the group stages, the Trinbago Knight Riders put up a clinical performance in the Eliminator to keep their chances of playing the finals alive. They must now continue to play with the same intensity and build on the momentum.
The Knight Riders boast of a strong batting line-up that will be led by the opening pair of Colin Munro and Alex Hales. The duo has been pretty consistent throughout the season and will hope to give Trinbago a brisk start in this match.
With skipper Nicholas Pooran playing an unbeatable knock of 90 runs in the last match, the Knight Riders will want him to keep playing well as he joins Kieron Pollard, Keacy Carty, and Andre Russell in the middle order. Trinbago’s biggest strength comes from their all-rounders, who can contribute with the bat and the ball.
Usman Tariq, Akeal Hosein, and Sunil Narine make up a strong spin department and will play an important role on this surface. Saurabh Netravalkar, who picked up three wickets in the last match, is likely to retain his place in the seam department along with Andre Russell.
Trinbago Knight Riders Expected Playing 11
Colin Munro, Alex Hales, Nicholas Pooran (C & WK), Darren Bravo, Keacy Carty, Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Akeal Hosein, Saurabh Netravalkar, Usman Tariq

Saint Lucia Kings
The Saint Lucia Kings were the best-performing team during the group stage, where they finished at the top of the points table. However, they were defeated by the Guyana Amazon Warriors in Qualifier 1. But thanks to a top-two finish, they have a second shot at making it to the finals.
A lot will depend on the opening pair of Johnson Charles and Tim Seifert. While they have given the Saint Lucia Kings some good starts, they struggled in the previous match and will hope to put up a better performance in this one.
The middle order consists of some experienced batsmen, including Ackeem Auguste and Aaron Jones, while the all-rounders Roston Chase and Tim David add depth to the batting. The lower order has been a bit inconsistent in this season, and they will need to play better if Saint Lucia wants to win here.
Coming to the bowling, the slower bowlers, led by Tabraiz Shamsi, have done an excellent job. Shamsi is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 17 wickets and will be supported by Roston Chase and Khary Pierre. The seamers, however, have struggled a bit, with David Weise managing to pick only 7 wickets.
Saint Lucia Kings Expected Playing 11
Tim Seifert (WK), Johnson Charles, Ackeem Auguste, Roston Chase, Tim David, Aaron Jones, David Weise (C), Alzarri Joseph, Tymal Mills, Khary Pierre, Tabraiz Shamsi
TKR vs SLK Toss Prediction
4 of the 7 matches played here were won while chasing. In 6 of those games, the team winning the toss opted to field first, and we expect that trend to continue.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The pitch at the Providence Stadium has dried up somewhat, thanks to the plentiful sunshine the ground has received over the past few days. The cracks have opened up, and the spinners will come into play. The seamers need to vary their pace to take full advantage of the surface. That said, once the batsmen settle down, playing shots will get easier. A score of around 175 is a par score.
The weather is expected to be clear with temperatures around 27 degrees, and there might be some dew on the ground during the second innings.
TKR vs SLK: Who Will Win?
Saint Lucia and Trinbago Knight Riders are among the strongest teams in the league, and with a spot in the finals on the line, we are expecting a close contest between them. The Trinbago Knight Riders have an edge here thanks to a strong batting line-up that has plenty of depth, and a well-balanced bowling unit.
Bet on the Trinbago Knight Riders to win.
TKR vs SLK win percentage stands at 59% in favor of TKR.
