TEAMS PREVIEW
Trinbago Knight Riders Preview
Trinbago Knight Riders put together a steady campaign in the league stage, collecting six wins against four defeats to claim third place. They have several proven performers in their ranks, and that depth should give them confidence heading into the Eliminator against Antigua and Barbuda Falcons.
Colin Munro has been their driving force with the bat, piling on 373 runs in 10 outings at a strike rate of 167.23. The experienced left-hander looks in excellent touch and is expected to play a central part in the playoffs. Kieron Pollard has added solid support, striking at 180 while making 327 runs from nine innings. His presence down the order is important, and they will hope he chips in with around 25 to 30 runs in this contest.
Nicholas Pooran and Alex Hales have each crossed 240 runs, showing they can play longer knocks when required. Pooran, in particular, is the standout weapon, as his aggressive style makes him one of the most dangerous T20 batters in the world. A quick burst from him could completely change the direction of this Eliminator.
Their bowling attack has leaned on three main options. Usman Tariq has led the way with 13 wickets at an economy of 7.91, while Akeal Hosein and Sunil Narine have shared 17 wickets. Narine, in particular, can control the scoring with his tight spells, making him a central figure in this lineup.
Trinbago Knight Riders Predicted Playing XI:
Colin Munro, Alex Hales, Joshua Da Silva (wk), Keacy Carty, Nicholas Pooran (c), Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Akeal Hosein, Usman Tariq, Saurabh Netravalkar

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons Preview
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have had a stop-start campaign in this year’s CPL, picking up five wins and four defeats to close the group stage in fourth place. They have struggled to string together momentum, and this Eliminator gives them a chance to finally deliver a complete performance.
Karima Gore has carried their batting load, scoring 219 runs from nine outings at a strike rate of 130.35. His returns have dipped across the last four games, though he will back himself to get at least 30 here.
Fabian Allen has chipped in strongly too, making 151 runs in eight knocks while scoring at 162.36. Imad Wasim and Shakib Al Hasan have steadied things in the middle order, both contributing over 130 runs from their lower-order slots.
Jayden Seales has been the pick of the attack, grabbing 10 wickets in nine innings at an economy rate of 7.92. Support has come from Obed McCoy and Shakib, who together have managed 15 scalps, but outside this trio, the bowling has not offered much.
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons Predicted Playing XI:
Amir Jangoo (wk), Andries Gous, Karima Gore, Kevin Wickham, Shakib Al Hasan, Imad Wasim (c), Fabian Allen, Shamar Springer, Usama Mir, Jayden Seales, Salman Irshad

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The tracks at Providence Stadium are famous for their variable bounce, and spinners usually take control as the match wears on. Batters will find opportunities to score, but the surface often loses pace during the middle overs, making shot selection more difficult. The big outfield demands well-timed shots to find the fence.
Cloudy weather is forecast over Guyana, and a potential thunderstorm in the morning could add another twist to the game.

Winning Prediction
The Eliminator leaves no margin for error—Antigua and Barbuda Falcons and Trinbago Knight Riders face a do-or-die scenario, with another mistake ending their campaign. Both sides have followed a comparable path this tournament, but the Knight Riders appear to be the more formidable unit, packed with players who can turn the game single-handedly. While the Falcons are capable of an upset, the Knight Riders’ depth and overall form make them the more reliable pick for this match.
Trinbago Knight Riders are our picks for the winners of this Eliminator.
