BR Vs SLK Live Score: Captains' Thoughts!

Rovman Powell(Barbados Royals Captain): "We are going to bowl first. There was some overnight rain so there might be moisture which will help our bowlers to turn.

I think anything around 150 is something that can be chased. Our bowlers have done a lot to bowl well in this tournament. We are going with an unchanged side."


Faf du Plessis (St Lucia Kings Captain): "I think so, I think there will be a bit of moisture in the surface early on. We played here yesterday so we know the challenge. 

We know what the wicket is going to do, trying to stay positive in the middle. We are going with the same team."

BR Vs SLK Live Score: Team Preview

Barbados Royals

It was a rare bad day for the Royals against The Kings, otherwise, they are second on the table with five wins in seven games. They have already qualified for the play-offs. Nonetheless, eyes would be on Quinton de Kock, skipper Rovman Powell, and Maheesh Theekshana. 


St Lucia Kings

The Kings have also qualified for the next round and have had a similar season like the Royals. The Faf du Plessis-led side have won five matches in seven games.  They would look to beat the Royals again in the reverse fixture. 


Skipper Du Plessis, Tim Seifert, David Wiese, and Alzarri Joseph are few players to keep an eye on from the Kings. 


18:32 (IST) Sep 22

BR Vs SLK Live Score: Royals Eye A Revenge!
