CPL 2019 Match 16 - JT vs SKP Fantasy Preview

Once upon a time, Jamaica Tallawahs was among the most feared teams in the Caribbean Premier League, if not the most feared. However, times have changed drastically for the franchise team, now suffering in CPL 2019 with only 1 win in their 6 games so far this season. Even winning all games from here won’t help their chances of qualification.

Tonight, they play St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in Match 16 of the 2019 CPL and this team hasn’t had a great ride either. They have 3 wins in their 7 games but what will help their confidence is the fact that they have won their last 2 games including the latest one against defending champs Trinbago.

Jamaica Tallawahs

Chris Gayle has always been the face of this Jamaica franchise and even though he has been their highest scorer yet, more than 50% of his runs have come from one innings. If playing grand league, take a chance and leave him out. If head to head, pick him just in case. Glenn Phillips has been far more consistent, with 5 fifties and 200+ runs with the bat. Your wicket keeper pick can also come from here as Chadwick Walton also has 2 fifties in 6 games.

Times have been tough for Andre Russell who has been in and out of the action because of continuous injury issues but the last game would’ve been a happy one for him, scoring 40 and picking up 2 wickets. I’m going to pick him as captain or vice-captain. Apart from him, Oshane Thomas is the highest wicket taker with 7 wickets. Jade Dernbach is a better choice, having picked 3 wickets in his 2 games thus far in CPL 2019.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots

Three brilliant scores against India and Evin Lewis has continued his form in CPL 2019 with two fifties so far and only behind Lendl Simmons on the tournament’s run scoring chart. However, his middle order hasn’t supported him. The biggest boost for them is the return of Colin Munro who missed the first few games. Munro scored 96* in his CPL 2019 debut and has 124 runs in only 2 games so far this season; he’s definitely worth picking.

Another one of my Nostragamus (sign-up with “READSCOOPS” for Rs.100 FREE) fantasy picks today would be Fabian Allen. He has 100+ runs and 2 wickets with the ball, but I’d love to see him being used more with the ball. Captain Carlos Brathwaite also ended a poor run with 2 wickets and 64 runs in the last game, where I picked him as captain even though he had only 1 wicket in his first 6 games. Choose again again.
