Guyana Amazon Warriors

The GAW draw strength from Tahir’s experience, as his tactical sharpness and leg-spin inspire the team. His experience in global T20 leagues has been invaluable for the team’s bowling unit. Under his captaincy, the side has managed to stay composed in pressure situations.

The GAW batting is powered by Shai Hope, Glenn Phillips, and Shimron Hetmyer, who can anchor or accelerate depending on the scenario. Ben McDermott and Moeen Ali add international class and stability. The lower order, led by Paul and Shepherd, provides the team with the firepower to close innings effectively.

Their bowling remains their strongest weapon, led by Imran Tahir and Gudakesh Motie’s spin threat. Shamar Joseph brings raw pace, while Shepherd and Pretorius provide variations in the middle overs. Together, this unit has consistently kept opposition batters under control.

Facing a tricky target at Bridgetown, the Warriors’ determination helped them secure the win over Barbados Royals. The Royals posted 165/6, thanks to disciplined bowling from the Warriors.

Trinbago Knight Riders

As captain, Pooran marries his boundary-hitting prowess with razor-sharp game sense, driving the Knight Riders forward with flair. Though his leadership has been tested in tough games, he remains a natural match-winner. His aggressive style sets the tone for the team.

TKR boasts a battering lineup of Hales, Munro, Pooran, and Pollard—guys who don’t just score runs, they make the stadium erupt with every powerful stroke. Andre Russell further strengthens their power-hitting ability in the death overs. However, inconsistency has plagued them in recent fixtures.

With Akeal Hosein and Sunil Narine in the spin department, they have world-class options to choke runs. Mohammad Amir and Ali Khan bring left-arm and right-arm pace variety. Yet, the lack of penetration in the middle overs has hurt them in crunch matches.

The Tarouba crowd watched in disbelief as TKR’s innings imploded under the relentless assault of St Lucia Kings. They were bowled out for 109 runs, with only scattered contributions from the top order. The Kings made light work of the chase, finishing on 112/3 in just 11.1 overs. It was a heavy 7-wicket defeat that raised questions about their batting discipline.

Providence Stadium, Guyana

The Providence pitch traditionally favors batters in the first half before slowing down for spinners later. Seamers who use cutters and variations are expected to enjoy assistance in the death overs. A par score here usually ranges around 165–175.

The weather in Guyana is expected to be partly cloudy with a warm temperature hovering around 30°C. Humidity levels could aid swing in the early overs, but no major rain interruptions are forecast. The presence of dew later in the day might make chasing slightly easier for the second-innings side.
