One of the most successful teams in CPL history, Trinbago Knight Riders won’t be too happy with their start in the CPL 2021 season so far. They lost their opening game, won the second and then succumbed to another loss, currently with 1 win in 3 games. For a team that has enjoyed flawless seasons in the past, they’ll be wanting to improve as they play Match 9 of CPL 2021 today, the first of today’s double header.
Their opponents for the day are St Lucia Kings who are currently at the bottom of the CPL 2021 points table with 1 win in 2 games. After losing their opening game, they beat Trinbago in the next and will be eyeing a double over this opponent, though it’s safe to say TKR is the pre-match favourite for this encounter.

Trinbago Knight Riders
With only 35 runs in 3 games in CPL 2021, not many would’ve expected such a bad performance from Lendl Simmons but given the fact that he’s one of the most consistent batsmen in CPL history, we’d want him in our TKR vs SLK fantasy team today. Another batting option worth considering is New Zealand’s Tim Seifert who blitzed his way to 40* in one game which showed us he’s one of the cleanest hitters in the tournament.
Talking about experience, there’s Ravi Rampaul in the side who has picked wickets in every game so far and has gone at an economy rate of just below 7 rpo, so should certainly make your TKR vs SLK Dream11 team. On the other hand, there’s Sri Lanka’s Isuru Udana who also has 6 wickets but most of them coming in his 5-fer in the first game. He’s fresh into retirement and his variations may see him getting many more scalps in CPL 2021.
St Lucia Kings
Usually not known for his T20 skills, Roston Chase has had a good start to this season, with 3 wickets and 41 runs in 2 games and should be in your BatBall11 (Code “READ123“) TKR vs SLK playing XI, maybe even as fantasy captain or vice-captain. Apart from him, there’s Singapore batter who was recently signed by RCB for IPL 2021 in Tim David who scored in both games after a successful stint at The Hundred.

The big hitting Rahkeem Cornwall is also likely to be at the top of the order with 37 runs in 2 games and he’s someone who can cause damage in the powerplay overs, while also bowling an over or two at times. Pakistani left-arm pacer Wahab Riaz has been smashed for 78 runs in only 6 overs in this tournament so far. He’s picked only 1 wicket as well but he’s super experienced and definitely makes my Dream11 team.
