1. Team news - Jamaica Tallawahs
They are second on the points table after their win over St Lucia Zouks. Their five-wicket win was pretty facile too. From a batting perspective, their biggest highlight was the form shown by Glenn Phillips and Asad Ali. Their effect was evident from the fact that they outbatted a big-hitter like Andre Russell. While Phillips and Ali made runs at a strike rate of 151 and 174 respectively, Russell struggled at 94.12 en route to a 17-ball 16. The Jamaicans will hope for Russell big bang and a few runs from opener Chadwick Walton. Spinners Mujeeb ur Rahman and Sandeep Lamichhane were the pick of bowlers and they will hope that the pacers will come up with a improved effort against Knight Riders.
2. Team News - Trinbago Knight Riders
The three-time champions Trinbago Knight Riders started the tournament on a slow but right note with a tight four-wicket win over Guyana Amazon Warriors in the CPL 2020 inaugural game on August 18. However, the Tallwahs will pose them a bigger danger and the Knight Riders will have to lift their game a few notches to register their second win on the trot. They will be eager for a few more runs from Lendl Simmons and Colin Munro and skipper Kieron Pollard. The Trinbago outfit will also except a better outing from veteran Dwayne Bravo with the ball who conceded 40 runs in four overs in the last match.
