Trinbago Knight Riders vs Barbados Royals Predictions

The Royals have lost their last four matches on the trot and look ready to hit the airways home. Trinbago are in great form, winning three of their last four matches, including a 74-run win over log-leaders the Amazon in their last match. Trinbago are my pick to win this match with ease… although if Quinton de Kock finds form again for the Royals it could make for a close encounter.

Trinbago Knight Riders’ Nicholas Pooran has scored 93*, 27 & 101 in his last 4 innings.
Trinbago Knight Riders’ Jason Roy has scored 64, 41 & 34 in his last 4 innings.
Barbados Royals’ David Miller has scored 21, 21, 71* & 30 in his last 4 innings.
Barbados Royals’ Alick Athanaze top-scored with 44 off 33 balls against Trinbago on Friday.

Head-to-Head

Trinbago have won the last four matches against the Royals, including their group clash on Friday.

Trinbago Knight Riders Form

Trinbago followed their 30-run win over the Royals with a 74-run triumph against top-of-the-table the Amazon.

Trinbago racked up an impressive 211/5 off their 20 overs, Nicholas Pooran launching eight sixes in his superb innings of 101 off 59 balls.

The Amazon got off to a flying start before losing seven wickets for just 24 runs. They recovered somewhat but still suffered a massive loss as they were bowled out for 137 off 18.5 overs.

Trinbago Knight Riders Team News

Trinbago are in great form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Barbados Royals Form

The Royals suffered a fourth defeat in a row when they lost their last group match to Trinbago by 30 runs.

Trinbago racked up a competitive score of 175/7 off their 20 overs, despite great bowling from Maheesh Theekshana and Naveen-ul-Haq, who both returned figures of 3/35 from their four overs apiece for the Royals.

The Royals got off to a slow start and were struggling at 85/4 in the 13th over. Alick Athanaze hit four sixes in his 44 off 33 balls as the Royals scraped their way to 145/9 off their 20 overs.

Barbados Royals Team News

The Royals need to lift themselves from their massive slump in form to keep their hopes alive in this year’s Caribbean Premier League.

Verdict

Trinbago Knight Riders v Barbados Royals - T20

I am backing Trinbago Knight Riders to win. I am also backing Nicholas Pooran to top score for Trinbago Knight Riders.

David Miller is a good bet to top score for the Barbados Royals.
