Obed McCoy the captain and marquee player for the side would be hoping for a good start to the season. He is leading a young side and would be hoping for these players to set the ball rolling in the very first game.

As far as batting is concerned the side would be expecting good start from Asif Hooper and Shem Browne at the top. Anson Latchman the wicket-keeper batsman has also earned a strong reputation and is one player to watch out. McCoy will bring in his experience to the middle order and look at making good contributions alongside Tijorn Pope and Wayne Harper.

In terms of their bowling attack, the side would look forward to Ajex Samuel and Richie Richards offering them a good start with the ball. The likes of Pope, Geron Wyllie, and McCoy will need to keep things tight from their end during the middle overs.

Sunil Ambris would go into this game with a great deal of confidence as he is leading a side that has some very existing players in the team.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

St. Vincent would see clear skies on May 22 and it would be a warm morning which is likely to make the conditions good for batting. The pitch has been a good one to bat on as we have seen in the regional games. The side batting first will have to eye a score of 120 plus to feel comfortable on this surface.

Venue Details

Arnos Vale Sporting Complex, St. Vincent is the perfect venue for limited-overs cricket with the small size of the park making it easy for the batsmen to hit the ball. There is some assistance for the bowlers in the initial overs but by and large, it is a good surface for the batsmen.

Toss: To Bat

It is a T10 game and in the past, we have seen teams batting first win the majority of the games after putting up a big score on the board. With the pitch expected to be a good one to bat on, we expect the side winning the toss to bat first on this surface.
