The Barbados Royals will face the Trinbago Knight Riders in match number 16 of the ongoing CPL 2022 season. The match-up marks the sixth fixture for the Royals and fifth for the struggling Knight Riders unit.

The two sides have endured contrasting campaigns this season. While the Royals are placed at the top of the CPL 2022 points table with their unbeaten run, the Knight Riders continue to struggle at the bottom with their solitary win out of four attempts.

The Royals are currently on a five-match winning streak. It all began with their seven-wicket triumph over the Patriots in their tournament opener, with their most recent win coming against the Tallawahs in a final-over thriller.

The Knight Riders, on the other hand, have suffered two defeats and a no-result out of their four games of the season. They are in desperate hunt for points ahead of the playoffs stage.

Key Players

• Kyle Mayers has piled up 206 runs across five CPL 2022 matches for the Royals to emerge as the leading run-getter of his side.
• Obed McCoy is currently the third highest wicket-taker of the tournament, having collected seven of them for the Royals in five games this year.
• Akeal Hosein picked a four-fer in his sole outing for the Knight Riders this season. Despite playing just one CPL 2022 match, he is the leading wicket-taker for his side.
