St Lucia T10 Blast, 2020 – Match 20, Central Castries Mindoo Heritage vs Vieux Fort North Raiders: 11Wickets Fantasy Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update

Match Details:

The 20th match of the 2020 St Lucia T10 Blast will be played between Vieux Fort North Raiders and Central Castries at the Darren Sammy National Cricket Ground in Gros Islet, St Lucia.

The match starts at 2:30 PM local time (12:00 AM IST – Next Day) (6:30 PM GMT). This match can be streamed live on Fan code.

Preview:

The Central Castries have done pretty well in the tournament thus far, winning two of their three games. That one game which they lost was against an incredibly strong Cannon Blasters side and barring that, they have done enough to be considered one of the favourites in the tournament. They will be up against the Vieux Fort North Raiders, who have not been up to the mark as yet and they might struggle to stay on level terms with their opponents. The Castries are keen on delivering a big performance and head to the top three again.

Weather Report

Weather conditions are expected to remain cloudy, but there is no interruption expected for the game.

Among all-rounders, Jermain Harding and Jaden Ellibox make for a compelling case as well.
