Match: St. Kitts & Nevis vs. St. Lucia
Venue: Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad
Date and time: August 27, 2020, at 7.30 PM IST

Preview: The sides previously faced each other in the 7th match of the tournament. D Sammy led St. Lucia defeated R Emrit led St. Kitts & Nevis on Saturday. Batting first, Sammy & co. put up a competitive 172/6 and won by 10 runs! St. Lucia sits comfortably at the 2nd position while St. Kitts & Nevis is struggling at the 6th as on 25th August, 3 PM. It will be interesting to see how St. Kitts respond to the challenge and revive their fortunes.

Pitch and Weather Conditions: The Queen’s Park Oval pitch is pretty good for batting. Both sides have power-packed batsmen like R Cornwall, E Lewis and C Lynn, which means we are in for some good entertainment. The pitch will also support pace bowling so expect good bowling from the likes of Cottrell and Kuggeleijn. Rain could again act as a deterrent with a 20% chance of precipitation and 26-31 degree Celsius temperature.

  • R Chase and S Kuggeleijn bagged 3 and 4 wickets respectively the last time the two teams met and will be looking to create problems for the batsmen with their bowling
