Bet NowIt will be a battle for supremacy as the Trinbago Knight Riders take on the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in the 27th game of the Caribbean Premier League 2021. The two sides are tied on 10 points each and a win here would guarantee them of a place in the semifinal. Knight Riders come here after a massive win against Barbados Royals while the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots lost to the Jamaica Tallawahs.
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots have suddenly dropped in form and have lost the last three games. Injury to their regular skipper Dwayne Bravo has hurt the balance of the side and it will be interesting to see how they fare here. Trinbago Knight Riders have won the last three games and enjoy a good record against Patriots and shall look to carry this form forward.
The defending champions are back in business with three consecutive wins after having had a poor start in the season. Kieron Pollard would be happy with the form of his side as they have registered big wins. They defeated the Barbados Royals by 6 wickets in a one-sided game. Pollard would be aware of the form the Patriots have and would like to see a good show from his players here.
Lendl Simmons and Tion Webster would look to provide a good start after their failure in the last game. In the middle order the side has players in form and the likes of Colin Munro, Tim Seifert and Darren Bravo shall look to score runs. In Pollard and Sunil Narine the side has good firepower down the order to push up the score.
It was a great show by their bowlers in the last game where they restricted Barbados Royals to a small total. Akeal Hosein and Ravi Rampaul shall look to do well with the new ball in this game. Khary Pierre and Narine bowled well in tandem in the last game and a similar show would be expected from them. Jayden Seales is bowling in the right areas and adds strength to this attack along with Pollard.

After starting the season with five consecutive wins, the side seems to have lost steam suffering three back-to-back losses and went down by 22 runs against Jamaica Tallawahs in the last game. Injury to skipper Dwayne Bravo hasn’t helped their cause and Chris Gayle would have to lead the side from the front. He would be eager to win this game and reclaim the top position on the points table.
The side would look for a good start from Devon Thomas and Evin Lewis in this game as the pair hasn’t shown consistency in the last few games leading to the side’s losses. Gayle would have to lead front the front and add runs in the middle order with Ravi Bopara and Joshua Da Silva. They would like to see runs from the bat of Dominic Drakes and Fabian Allen.
Their bowling has been in poor shape, and they will need early wickets from Fabian Allen and Paul van Meekeren. In most games the pair has gone for runs. Fawad Ahmed has kept the scoring rate under check. Bopara, Jon-Russ Jaggesar and Drakes would have to come up with tight spells as they are up against a strong batting line-up.

It would be a warm evening at St Kitts on September 12 and the wicket is expected to be a good one to bat on. The surface is flat, and batsmen are able to play their strokes freely here. The side batting first in this game would aim to put 180 runs on the board as big scores have been chased here.
Warner Park, St Kitts has historically been a good venue to bat on and we have seen batsmen score lots of runs on this wicket. Fast bowlers find it hard to bowl on this track where there is little support for them. Spinners have enjoyed good record as the odd ball can turn and stop on the batsmen.
There is absolutely nothing in the pitch for the bowlers and in the last few games we have seen batsmen dominate. The side winning the toss would like to take advantage of the surface by batting first and aim at putting up a big score on the board.
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots seem to have a confidence problem right now and they have suffered three consecutive losses. It is the bowling attack that has failed to live up to the expectations and they can least afford to bowl poor lines in this game against a powerful batting line-up. Trinbago Knight Riders on their part look in great form and have a very strong batting line-up. This would make them favorites to win this game.
