CPL 2025: Match 17, TKR vs GUY Match Prediction – Who will win today’s CPL match between TKR vs GUY?
This match will be contested at Trinidad's Brian Lara Stadium.
In the upcoming contest of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2025, the Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) will cross swords against the Guyana Amazon Warriors (GUY) in the Match No. 17 on Sunday, August 31 at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad.
The Trinbago Knight Riders have shown a terrific degree of consistency in this season. In the five matches played thus far, the Nicholas Pooran-led side has won four of them, collecting 8 points with a net run-rate (NRR) of 0.618. The NRR, though, doesn't matter much to the franchise at the moment, since the side is already topping the leaderboard with the apex spot as per the latest rankings.
The Guyana Amazon Warriors, on the other hand, have also put on display a considerable amount of good performances, losing only one out of the three encounters that they have contested in so far. The Imran Tahir-led side will be up against the might of the Trinidad and Tobago-based franchise, but will be confident of returning to winning ways in their fourth game.

Probable Best Performers of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Colin Munro
Colin Munro hasn't looked in any discomfort to score runs in the ongoing season of the CPL. He is currently the highest run-getter of the season with 283 runs from just five matches. The New Zealand international averages 56.60 and has been striking the ball at 177.98 in the competition. The Knight Riders will be hoping for a similar performance from the ace opener in the game on Sunday.
Probable Best Bowler: Imran Tahir
Imran Tahir, even at 46 years of age, hasn't been putting a foot wrong when it comes to delivering his best with the ball. In just three innings, the ace spinner has picked up 12 wickets, while also being extremely frugal with his economy rate standing at 8.00. The former South African cricketer will be aiming to guide the Guyana-based franchise to winning ways in the clash against a star-studded line-up in Trinidad.
