ST KITTS AND NEVIS PATRIOTS FORM: PATRIOTS FAIL TO BACK UP WIN OVER FALCONS
After their absorbing one-wicket triumph over Antigua & Barbuda Falcons, St Kitts and Nevis Patriots fell to Trinbago Knight Riders in disappointing fashion, shipping a whopping 250 runs after winning the toss and bowling first, with Nicholas Pooran unsurprisingly doing most of the damage. They ultimately lost by 44 runs, reaching 206/8 in reply.
SAINT LUCIA KINGS FORM: TOP ORDER RUNS KEY FOR KINGS TO SUCCEED
Saint Lucia Kings have the firepower at the top of their order to really rack up some big scores across this season’s Caribbean Premier League on paper. Captain Faf du Plessis is coming off the back of an outstanding Major League Cricket campaign a couple of months ago, whilst the likes of Roston Chase and Tim Seifert are also in good form.
ST KITTS AND NEVIS PATRIOTS BETTING ANALYSIS
If St Kitts and Nevis Patriots are to succeed here, the pace of Anrich Nortje is likely to be very important as that can offer them a real point of different with the ball. The South African speedster took two wickets against Trinbago and can be utilised at any point of the Saint Lucia innings whether it be in or out of the powerplay. Bettors should consider placing a stake on Nortje to take 2+ wickets for a second consecutive game.
SAINT LUCIA KINGS BETTING ANALYSIS
When it comes to investing in Saint Lucia Kings batters capable of recording a big score here, one has to shine a spotlight on Faf du Plessis. Playing for Texas Super Kings in Major League Cricket, the experienced opener racked up 420 runs across this year’s tournament, the most of any player involved. The sensible move would be to back him finishing this contest as the Kings’ top batter whether they are setting or chasing a target.
ST KITTS AND NEVIS PATRIOTS VS SAINT LUCIA KINGS EXPERT PREDICTION
The big issue clearly for St Kitts and Nevis Patriots will be stemming the runs after leaking them so badly last time out. Unfortunately for them, Saint Lucia Kings boast a batting line-up capable of inflicting significant damage themselves, which doesn’t bode well for the Patriots on the same ground.
Provided Saint Lucia can keep things disciplined on the bowling front, not show too much rust and take their catches should they come, them the expectation is that they will do enough to overcome their opponents.
