Guyana Amazon Warriors v Barbados Tridents – Match Preview

The CPL 2020 is more than halfway completed. But this is the first time Guyana and the Tridents will meet this season. They will play each other again later this week.

Guyana have won four of their last six matches against Barbados. But the Tridents won their most recent meeting in 2019.

Where: Brian Lara Stadium, Tarouba

When: Tuesday, 1 September 2020

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

Pitch conditions: The pitch at the Brian Lara Stadium had a chance to rest while the tournament was played in Port of Spain. Back in Tarouba, the CPL should see first-innings scores of around 150 to 160 again. Conditions will still be a bit sluggish, so teams will likely field two specialist spinners.

Weather conditions: We hope to get in a fixture, but there is plenty of rain forecast in Tarouba. This will be the second match of the day, so perhaps any bad weather will have cleared by the scheduled start. A shortened fixture would suit the team batting second.

Guyana Amazon Warriors v Barbados Tridents – Team News

The Amazon Warriors went without Sherfane Rutherford for their previous match. He has been woefully out of form. It’ll be interesting to see if they give Kevin Sinclair another go.

Brandon King, who was superb last season, has been poor this campaign. His place in the XI could be in jeopardy.

Guyana have been stronger in their bowling, with Imran Tahir and Chris Green an outstanding spin combination. Then Keemo Paul and Naveen-ul-Haq have been at the fore of the seam attack.

The Tridents, as ever, can lean on captain Jason Holder for wickets and runs. But, of course, he can’t really do it alone.

Raymon Reifer is around to help with some steady seam, while the spin department is spearheaded by Mitchell Santner and Rashid Khan.

It’s exciting to know both Khan and Santner will be in the Indian Premier League next month, too.

And don’t forget about batsman Kyle Mayers and wrist-spinner Hayden Walsh Junior, who are also among the Tridents’ favoured players.

Guyana Amazon Warriors v Barbados Tridents – Betting Tips and Prediction

Read these CPL betting tips before the match. They could help you make the right predictions among the top batsman and bowler markets in particular.

Pick Tahir to be the Top Bowler for Guyana

South African leg-spinner Imran Tahir has played in domestic T20 tournament all over the world. The Amazon Warriors are his current home. He has already taken 11 wickets in the CPL 2020.

Tahir is priced at 2.88 to be the top bowler for Guyana against the Tridents. His variations, as ever, have been key in conditions conducive to turn and a bit of extra bounce.

Bet on Pooran to be Guyana’s Top Batsman

Nicholas Pooran became the 2020 CPL’s first centurion last week. He is in hot form and priced at 6.0 to be the top batsman for Guyana this time. Those are quite high odds for a player performing so well.

This bet could bring great value, especially as Pooran has risen above the form of other bigger names in the Amazon Warriors middle-order such as Ross Tayor and Shimron Hetymer.

Choose a Half-Century Not to be Scored

A lot of the batsmen are really hitting their straps now. How the Brian Lara Stadium pitch will play, though, is a bit unknown. It was last used 10 CPL 2020 matches ago.

In a tournament that has produced – for the most part – at least one half-century per match, you could be well placed to bet on a 50 not being scored at 3.6 with 888Sport. We have a quiet suspicion this could be the case.
