Preview:

Defending champions, Trinbago Knight Riders host the Barbados Tridents in one of the most awaited games of CPL 2019. Both teams are already assured of a top-four finish. With the evolution of the playoff system in franchise cricket, both sides look to seal a top-two finish to give them one more chance in making it to the final. While Trinbago Knight Riders have nine points in the points table, Barbados Tridents isn’t too far behind with eight. A win would see either side jump into the second spot behind Guyana Amazon Warriors although Trinbago has another match to be played after this.

The previous fixture between the two sides saw Barbados Tridents trump the defending champions. JP Duminy scored the fastest fifty in CPL history in the corresponding fixture which saw Barbados Tridents kickstart a good run of form. Trinbago Knight Riders will depend on the captain, Kieron Pollard to lead them to a top-two finish. The star all-rounder scored a quick-fire fifty in TKR’s previous game against Guyana Amazon Warriors.


Weather Condition/Report:

Clear weather is on the cards for this game with a cloud cover being less than 10% according to AccuWeather. The temperatures should hover between 27 and 29 degrees Celsius during the course of the match.

Pitch Condition/Report:

The pitch should play host to a high-scoring game with not much swing also on offer for the pacers with the new ball. The relatively short boundaries will help the batsmen although the pitch should slow down as the game progresses
