Jamaica Tallawahs vs Barbados Royals, CPL 2023
20 August 2023 @ 7:30 PM IST
Gros Islet, St. Lucia
JAM vs BR Preview
Jamaica Tallawahs won their first game in the first game of the season in a comfortable fashion. The skipper Brandon King was on song to take the team’s total to 187 with small contributions from down the order. They would be confident of their bowling group, as they did well and will be expected to do the same in this game.
Barbados Royals were thrashed by Saint Lucia Kings in the last game. Only Jason Holder and Qais Ahmad could pick up wickets and all the bowlers went for plenty of runs and that would be a concern. The batting order saw everyone failing and it was just Nyeem Young, who scored 48 and was the only batter, who played decent.
Gros Islet Pitch Report
The pitch at St Lucia is a track for the bowlers. Pacers will have to be cautious, as they can get hit for some huge hits. Batters need to be cautious of the spinners here, as it spins away very good. Team winning the toss should come out to bat first, as it gets slow as the game progresses. The rain has ruined a couple of games now, and it it’s on the forecast for today as well.
