Caribbean Premier League 2020: St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Barbados Tridents, Match no. 11

Match predictions

Winners Prediction: Barbados Tridents have lost 2 matches after their win in their opening match. St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots is the only team that is yet to win a match after 3 matches.  Both teams are in need of a victory to move ahead in the qualification race in this match. Both teams have a struggling middle order which is stopping them from posting a big score. Patriots lack quality spinners in the squad which will hurt the team in these pitches. We expect Barbados Tridents to win this match. 

Score Prediction: This match takes place on a freshly laid pitch at Queen`s park Ground. This pitch has traditionally favored batsmen and we expect average scores around 170-180 runs in this match.   

Toss Prediction: Chasing is safe option in lively and flat pitches as no target is safe here. Batsman are clearing the fence with utmost ease nowadays.
