Table-toppers Barbados Royals will face the St Lucia Kings in match number 11 of the ongoing CPL 2022 season.
The Royals are yet to lose a game this season, having registered three wins on the trot against Patriots, Kings and the Knight Riders respectively. Their upcoming match marks their return fixture against the Kings, having defeated them by 11 runs in a rain-affected contest in their previous meeting this year.
On the other hand, the Kings suffered heavy defeats in their first two matches, first to the Knight Riders and then to the Royals. As of now, they are at the bottom of the points table.
Notably, the best batter and bowler will be on show through this match-up. While Royals’ star all-rounder Kyle Mayers has aggregated most runs in the 2022 competition, West Indies international and Kings’ speedster Alzarri Joseph has left his mark with the ball.
Key Players
Kyle Mayers has put up a remarkable all-round spectacle this year, featuring in both batting and bowling charts of the season. Apart from scoring 161 runs to lead the batting table, he has also picked up four wickets from his three outings for the Royals.
