Antigua And Barbuda Falcons Looking To Keep Slim Hopes Alive

Both the replacements in the Guyana team are expect to bat at the top of the order and with pitch being difficult to bat, the home crowd would be expecting a good opening stand to build the momentum for the rest of the game. Guyana Amazon Warriors have won four out of their six games so far, and a win in this game would strengthen their chances of top-2 finish. Falcons, on the other hand, have three wins out of the nine games and need to win this game and win big, to keep their slim hopes of qualifying for the playoffs alive.

Both teams have quality bowlers in their ranks, and they are expected to play a big role in this match, and any score above 130, would be challenging for the Falcons in the second half who have already been below-par with the bat in this season. It promises to be another cracking contest of CPL 2024.
