GUY vs SKN Dream11 Prediction

Guyana Amazon Warriors will take on St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots in what will be the second game for either side on 20th August at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad. Both teams are coming on the back of narrow defeats in the first game. While Guyana failed to defend 144 in their shortened game, St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots failed to chase down 154, bowing down to the spin twins- Rashid Khan and Mitchell Santner.

Guyana Amazon Warriors was one of the stand-out teams in the last edition, reaching the finals of CPL 2019 and would be looking to get their campaign back on track against the St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots. Their star performer of the first game, Shimron Hetmyer along with Ross Taylor would lead their batting charge, while Tahir and Afghanistan seamer Naveen-ul-haq will look to keep their good run going, having taken two wickets a piece. The Warriors would be hoping their openers King and Hemraj, who were their stalwarts last season come good.

St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots have a good, balanced unit and they did really come good in parts in their season opener. The Patriots bowling unit stood tall and restricted the opponents to just 153. The pace trio of captain Rayad Emrit, Sohail Tanvir and Sheldon Cottrell kept a check on the opponents, while also taking timely breakthroughs. The opener Chris Lynn and Evin Lewis were a bit of a disappointment and the Emrit led side would be hoping they come good against the Warriors. Lynn’s struggle on slow pitches has been a long story, while Lewis is slow at the start of the innings, and if Lynn fails to deliver, the pressure shows on Lewis, who has also been seen struggling under such circumstances.

GUY vs SKN Ground and Pitch Report: The match will be played at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad, which is known to help the spinners. The par score on the pitch has been in the region of 150-160. The pitch has helped the spinners so far, but pacers who have added variation to their bowling have also made merry.
The record on the ground is heavily tilted towards the chasing side, however, the first day of the league saw an even score there.

GUY vs SKN Key Players:
Guyana Amazon Warriors
Shimron Hetmyer: Hetmyer is easily the best batsman in the side and a destructive player who can change the course of the game in minutes. He was the top scorer for his side in the opening game, scoring 63 off just 44 deliveries. He also did well in the 2019 edition, scoring 224 runs, and averaging over 20.
Imran Tahir: Tahir was the second-highest wicket-taker in the last edition of CPL and showed his class in the opening game of the 2020 edition as well, picking up 2 key wickets, and bringing his side right back in the game. Tahir has the knack of picking wickets and will be a must-have in the side.
Ross Taylor: Although Brandon King was the top scorer of the side last season, and also overall, the presence of Taylor in the middle order just gives the team a different dimension. Taylor can control the game in the middle and go bang-bang at the fag end of the innings. His recent form for New Zealand and the 33 in the opening game against Trinbago Knight Riders are reasons you should not miss out on him.

St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots
Ben Dunk: The Aussie is coming on the back of fine knocks in the PSL. Though it was some time back, Dunk gave evidence of him being still in form as he struck a crucial 34 in the opener.
Sohail Tanvir: Tanvir is a fine all-rounder and has been a stellar performer in T20s. On the opening night, Tanvir claimed 2 wickets and struck a 10-ball 16 to show he can add value in the lower order as well.
Rayad Emrit: The captain leads from the front and is more than handy with the ball. A master of variations, Emrit is always amongst the wickets. Emrit had 11 wickets to his name last season, and he already has 2 to his name in this edition.

GUY vs SKN Match Prediction (Head to Head):
The head to head record between Guyana Amazon Warriors and St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots is heavily tilted in favour of Guyana Amazon Warriors who have won 8 of the 10 contests, and all of the last 4 matches between the 2 sides. Yet again, given the pitch conditions and the players in their ranks, Guyana Amazon Warriors will start as strong favorites.
