CPL 2021 | SLK vs JT: Saint Lucia look to get back on track, Jamaica seek to continue form

Onecricket

Saint Lucia Kings will lock horns with Jamaica Tallawahs on Friday in St Kitts. While the Jamaican team would be coming into this game on the back of a comprehensive win against the Patriots in their last encounter, the Kings on the other side, lost to Guyana Amazon Warriors in their last respective clash. 

The two teams have met earlier in the competition where Jamaica dominated the Saint Lucia side thoroughly after they posted a mammoth 255/5 in 20 overs and then bundled out the Kings for 135 to win the match by 120 runs. 

The Tallawahs would be relying upon Andre Russell to unleash the kind of knock he played in the previous encounter when the two sides faced each other. The aggressive right-handed batsman notched up a 14-ball 50*. He did show some good form against the patriots as well after scoring 28 off 17 that included three maximums. 

On the other hand, Lucia Kings team need someone in the top order to give them a steady start as the presence of Roston Chase and Tim David is enough to capitalise on a decent beginning to the innings. 

The Kings have so far won 4 matches out of the seven that they have played while Jamaica have suffered defeats in four out of the seven matches in which they have featured.

Pitch Report

The track in St Kitts is expected to have something on offer for the bowlers, especially spinners. The batsmen might find it difficult to score runs quickly. The dew can play some role in the later half of the game, so, if you win the toss, bowl first.

Temba Bavuma to lead South Africa's World T20 squad; Faf du Plessis, Morris, Tahir overlooked

South Africa have named their 18-man T20I squad for the upcoming ICC World T20 2020-21 under the leadership of Temba Bvauma. While most of the names are on expected lines following the T20I series in the last few months, the exclusion of Faf du Plessis from the side should mark as an end of the road for the former skipper. The Proteas have also excluded two big names in the world of T20 cricket such as Imran Tahir and Chris Morris. Both of them last played for them in the ICC ODI World Cup 2019 and while Tahir announced his retirement from the 50-over format, he was available for selection in the shortest format. Morris earlier this year had complained lack of communication from Cricket South Africa and hence his exclusion should be seen as the end of his international career. The trio of Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje and Lungi Ngidi form the core of the pace bowling attack while the number one bowler in the format Tabraiz Shamsi, Keshav Maharaj will constitute the spin department. The onus of batting will rest on the shoulders of skipper Bavuma along with experienced pros in Quinton de Kock, David Miller, Rassie van der Dussen, Heinrich Klaasen and Aiden Markram. The trio of George Linde, Andile Phehlukwayo, Lizaad Williams has been selected among reserves for the squad. Notbaly, the Proteas can make changes to their squad until October 10. South Africa squad Temba Bavuma, Quinton de Kock, Bjorn Fortuin, Reeza Hendricks, Heinrich Klaasen, Keshav Maharaj, Aiden Markram, David Miller, Wiaan Mulder, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Dwaine Pretorius, Kagiso Radaba, Tabraiz Shamsi, Rassie van der Dussen Reserves George Linde, Andile Phehlukwayo, Lizaad Williams
