The top four teams of this year’s Caribbean Premier League (CPL) has already been decided. While Trinbago Knight Riders have assured themselves a berth in the top two, the other spot is still up for grabs. Guyana Amazon Warriors and Jamaica Tallawahs are competing for the spot. The last match of the league stage will be played between the Knights and Guyana.

The Chris Green-led team not only has to win the match but also ensure that they beat their opponent by a fair margin in order to edge past the Tallawahs’ Net Run Rate. The hosts have strained a wee bit after their impressive start in the 20-over event and would be desperately hoping to hit their straps at the earliest before the playoffs get underway a couple of days later.

Pitch

The pitch at Providence Stadium in Guyana has been kind to both bowlers and batsmen. In the last match, the Tallawahs chased down a stiff target without much fuss. Hence, it won’t be a surprise if teams opt to bowl first after winning the toss. However, the Knights won’t mind bowling second as their bowling lineup is in stupendous form.

Team Combination

Guyana Amazon Warriors

The Warriors, after their defeat against Andre Russell’s men, would be making one change. They make rope in Indian-born fast bowler Saurabh Netravalkar. Luke Ronchi and Cameron Delport remain to be the opening batsmen. Chadwick Walton plated reasonably well in the middle-order. Sohail Tanvir and Imran Tahir need to shoulder a chunk of the responsibility.

Predicted XI

Luke Ronchi (wk), Cameron Delport, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Mohammed, Chadwick Walton, Roshon Primus, Sohail Tanvir, Chris Green (C), Keemo Paul, Saurabh Netravalkar, Imran Tahir

Trinbago Knight Riders

The Knights will be forced to make one change in the form of Chris Lynn, who has left and will be replaced by Colin Ingram. Colin Munro and Brendon McCullum are the openers. Sunil Narine is unlikely to be promoted in the batting order. The bowling department consisting of Ali Khan, Fawad Ahmed and Narine looks an ominous prospect for the opposition.

Predicted XI

Colin Munro, Brendon McCullum, Colin Ingram, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo (C), Sunil Narine, Terrence Hinds, Fawad Ahmed, Kharry Pierre, Ali Khan

Probable top performers
