Barbados Tridents v Guyana Amazon Warriors – Match Preview

The Tridents’ top order collapsed when these two met just a few days ago. Brandon King saw Guyana home with a half-century to boost his team’s hopes of progression.

That victory underlined Guyana’s better head-to-head record in this fixture over the years. They have won eight of the previous 13 meetings.

Where: Brian Lara Stadium, Tarouba, Trinidad

When: Thursday, 3 September 2020

Start time: 21:30 GMT (03:00 IST, next day)

Pitch conditions: While the Brian Lara Stadium pitch had a break as the tournament headed to Port of Spain, a slow track is still on the cards. Higher scores are expected, with anything over 150 runs competitive.

The Tridents could make changes following their disappointing performance in the previous meeting.

Mitchell Santner and Rashid Khan will lead the spin attack and are likely to continue to be supported by Hayden Walsh Junior.

They will be hoping for much more from Johnson Charles and Justin Greaves, should they get another go at opening.

Kyle Mayers has been solid if unspectacular, but will need to offer more if the Tridents are going to reverse the result here. The same can also be said of Shai Hope.

For Guyana, their main issues have come from the batting department. The decision to go with Kevin Sinclair or Chandrapaul Hemraj alongside King is likely to be the main big call for the Warriors.

They are unlikely to make too many alterations to the bowling attack. Imran Tahir and Chris Green have both been superb in the CPL 2020 as a battle of spin could be heading our way.

Barbados Tridents v Guyana Amazon Warriors – Betting Tips and Prediction

Given how the previous meeting went, this looks like a big opportunity for Guyana to take a huge step towards the next round.

They should have a little too much for the Tridents once again.

We bring you the best CPL betting tips for this match.

Choose Greaves to Top Score for Barbados

Justin Greaves has been a late addition to the Tridents XI for the CPL 2020. He’s a much better player than the duck he scored against Guyana recently.

Opportunity knocks for him to bounce back against the same opposition. Bodog India have Greaves priced at 1.87 to be the top run-scorer for Barbados. At the top of the order, he has plenty of time to get this right.

Back Naveen to be the Best Bowler Overall

Naveen-ul-Haq has been superb this season. He has outshone some of his fellow Afghanistan stars in the 2020 CPL and has taken six wickets in the last two matches.

He was player of the match against the Tridents the last time they met. It’s this success against Barbados that suggests good value in Betway’s market that has Naveen priced at 7.0 to be the top bowler in the match.

Bet on Tahir to be Player of the Match

Tahir has only taken one wicket in his last three CPL matches. The batsmen are evidently choosing to just see him off rather than take risks.

The South African leg-spinner is a seasoned campaigner, though, and can adjust his strategy and approach. It’s not the longest shot we’ve seen, but 22Bet’s decision to price Tahir at 8.0 to be the player of the match is looking good.
