It is a crucial stage in the Caribbean Premier League 2024, where teams look to improve their position on the points table. Hosts Saint Lucia Kings will look to move up on the points table as they take on the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons in the 17th match. Saint Lucia Kings defeated the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in the last game, while the Falcons lost to the Barbados Royals.
The Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have struggled with their consistency. They have played seven games and managed to win only twice. It is a must-win game for the team to keep hopes alive for the next round, and they will be under pressure. Saint Lucia Kings play at home and enjoy a good record at this venue. We expect this to be a close contest as a lot rests for both teams on this result.

Chris Green's team has found it tough this season with its consistency. After showing a bit of spark in the last few games, they went down by 10 runs in the last game against the Barbados Royals.

We expect cloudy skies over St Lucia and rain interruptions during the game. It is a good surface to bat on, and we have seen batsmen play their strokes easily. However, overcast conditions assist the fast bowlers. The average first-innings score in the last two seasons has been 170 runs. The team batting first shall look to have 190 runs on the board.

Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia, is a batsmen-friendly ground in ideal conditions. The shorter boundaries allow batters to free their arms. Fast bowlers don't get much movement unless it is in overcast conditions, and spinners must bowl in the right areas to do well here.
In the three games played this year, the team chasing the score has won the game. The weather forecast isn't encouraging, and we would be lucky to see a full game. When overs are curtailed, the side chasing the score has an advantage. Hence, the side winning the toss here won't hesitate to bowl first.
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have looked out of form. The team's bowling attack is weak, and the top order hasn't been consistent. They must have runs on the board and early wickets to create a chance for themselves in the game against a stronger opposition. The Saint Lucia Kings have a strong batting lineup and a good record at the venue, making them favorites.
