Hero CPL 2020 – TKR vs JAM Fantasy Preview

The 2020 Hero Caribbean Premier League is off to a fantastic start and we have daily double headers. Today being the third day, we have St Lucia playing Barbados in Match 5 of the Hero CPL 2020 before Match 6 kicks off at the same venue in Tarouba a few hours later. This pitch has proved to be on the slower side and so far, it seems like anything above 160 can be a winning total if the bowlers defend well.

Trinbago Knight Riders is the most successful franchise in the Hero CPL with 3 titles and they began CPL 2020 with a win too, beating Guyana by 4 wickets in the opening game. It’s going to be a good contest as they play Jamaica Tallawahs in Match 6, a team that did badly last year but is also a past CPL-winning side.

Trinbago Knights Riders

The star of the side has to be Sunil Narine who is now equally known for his batting too, smashing a fifty in the opening game and also picking 2/19 with the ball, so he’s a sure captain or vice-captain pick for your TKR vs SLZ fantasy team. Apart from him, another all-round option to have in your team is Dwayne Bravo, though we don’t see him batting in the higher order; e picked 1/40 in the opening game.

With 400+ runs in the last season and finishing as one of the top players in CPL 2019, Lendl Simmons is one of the most consistent players in CPL history and it’s safe to have him in your team. With the ball, there was one player who really impressed one and all in just 2 overs bowled and figures of 1/24 and that’s Jayden Seales who has raw pace and can trouble some of the Jamaica batsmen in this game.

Jamaica Tallawahs

We spoke about a slower pitch and 5 of the 6 wickets that Jamaica took in their first game were by spinners including 2/25 to Mujeeb Ur Rahman and 1/23 to Nepal’s Sandeep Lamichhane, these being some of the best Asian bowlers at the moment. They also have Veerasammy Permaul in the side and he picked 2 wickets as well, but I’d choose the Asian spinners over him. You could even risk having all three!

The 23-year old Glenn Phillips from New Zealand scored a handy 44 at the top of the order and this guy is highly spoken of because of his T20 prowess, so he should certainly make your BatBall11 (Use code “READ123) fantasy team today. Apart from him, we saw Pakistan’s Asif Ali scoring 47(27)* and he was unbeaten as Jamaica got over the line. Andre Russell will be heavily picked so we could take a gamble and drop him!
