The Cricket Capital of the Caribbean will take centre stage as the Republic Bank CPL’s Trinidad leg bowls off tonight, and the tone will be set between perpetual foes Guyana Amazon Warriors and the Trinbago Knight Riders.
This will be a crucial game for both teams as they try to break the 7-point tie, with the Amazon Warriors second and TKR third, separated by net run rate. The last five matches between these two powerhouse franchises saw two wins each with one game ending in a tie.
The Amazon Warriors won that game via the super over.
Martin Guptill and Mark Deyal have consistently set a good foundation at the top of the innings for TKR, and Kieron Pollard will want to continue his good form with the bat.
