CPL 2023, JAM vs TKR: Team Previews
Jamaica Tallawahs
Jamaica Tallawahs have played five matches so far in the tournament, out of which they emerged victorious in two games while suffering defeat in two matches. Regrettably, one of their matches was cancelled due to rain. As of now, they sit in the fourth spot on the points table with five points.
They are limping into this match after a disappointing six-wicket defeat at the hands of Barbados Royals. They must be hungry to bounce back stronger, play together as a team, and come out swinging.
Trinbago Knight Riders
Speaking of the Trinbago Knight Riders, they have hit the pitch four times in this tournament. They have pocketed two wins, tasted defeat once, and had one match cancelled due to bad weather. They are currently kicking it in third place on the points table with five points.
They are striding into this game after a massive 133-run thrashing of the Barbados Royals. Setting a target of 195, the Trinbago Knight Riders' bowlers went berserk, dismantling the Royals for a mere 61 runs in 12.1 overs. They are looking to keep the dominance rolling in this tournament.
