Easily the most consistent and successful team in the history of the Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL), Trinbago Knight Riders had a couple of early losses in CPL 2021 and they had a slow and unsteady start to the season. However, they somehow still managed to get 4 wins in their last 5 games and eventually top the CPL 2021 points table, with a total of 6 wins in 10 games this season, peaking at the right time.
On the other hand is a team that began well but has had a tough time getting wins in recent games – St Lucia Kings. They’ve lost 3 of their last 4 games coming into the CPL 2021 semi finals and there’s absolutely no momentum here. They start as underdogs but a lot of funny things have happened in the CPL in the past. Keep reading for our complete BatBall11 (Code “READ123“) TKR vs SLK Dream11 predictions…

Trinbago Knight Riders
A few days short of turning 37 years old, Ravi Rampaul is high on confidence in CPL 2021 since he was also recently picked for the West Indies squad for the upcoming 2020 T20 World Cup, after having last played a T20I in 2015 for the team in maroon. He makes our TKR vs SLK fantasy team while USA pacer Ali Khan is another good addition, joining the squad late this season, but picking 8 scalps in only 3 games so far.
With the bat, Lendl Simmons has had a poor season for his standards with only one fifty and 189 runs in 10 games but he’s experienced and we think he’ll score in crunch games such as these, so should make your TKR vs SLK Dream11 team. Sunil Narine was rested in the last game but may come back in for Isuru Udana or the out-of-form Darren Bravo; Narine has plenty to prove after being dropped from the World T20 squad.
St Lucia Kings
If playing a head to head contest, picking Roston Chase as captain or vice-captain of your BatBall11 (Code “READ123“) TKR vs SLK playing XI makes sense because he’s the top scorer in the tournament with 4 fifties so far while a newer addition to the squad in CPL 2021 was Rahkeem Cornwall who is likely to open with Andre Fletcher especially since the side is sweating the fitness of their opener, Faf du Plessis.

With 234 runs in 10 games, Singapore’s Tim David is an underrated player who has contributed in almost every game in the middle order, and that’s why we’d pick him today because he’s great in the field and sometimes bowls an over or two as well. Talking about bowling, David Wiese had two wicketless games but also had one fifer after joining the team this season, and he can bat if required of him too. He’s a fantasy captain option today!
