Trinbago Knight Riders

Batting: Colin Munro has been in blistering form with the bat and is leading the way with five half-centuries, including 90 in Trinbago Knight Riders’ only win against Guyana. He is comfortably leading the run chart with 499 runs from 12 innings. Except him they will also bank on the likes of Darren Bravo, who has scored 349 runs comprising two half-centuries and McCullum, who top scored against the Patriots, has three half-centuries and 304 runs in total. These three will once again be key for the Riders.

Expected Playing XI: Dwayne Bravo (C), Khary Pierre, Kevon Cooper, Fawad Ahmed, Ali Khan, Colin Munro, Sunil Narine, Brendon McCullum, Colin Ingram, Denesh Ramdin and Darren Bravo.

Batting: Shimron Hetmyer is the Warriors leading run-getter in CPL 2018 with 425 runs and also top-scored in both previous wins against Trinbago Knight Riders, hitting 59 from 30 balls in the final group game and then a more patient 39 from 36 in the qualifier.

The next highest scorer behind him is Luke Ronchi, on 199, followed by Chadwick Walton, who has 166 from his 11 innings. These three will hold the key for the Warriors and will be expected to score big in the final clash of the season.

Bowling: Imran Tahir leads the way having claimed 16 wickets from the 11 matches so far, with an average of 16.68 and an economy rate just a fraction above a run a ball. Sohail Tanvir is next with 12 wickets from 10 matches. However, Chris Green starred against Riders in qualifier one as he claimed 2-8 from his four overs and will want to replicate it in the final encounter as well.

Expected Playing XI: Chris Green (C), Rayad Emrit, Devendra Bishoo, Imran Tahir, Cameron Delport, Luke Ronchi, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Mohammed, Chadwick Walton, Sherfane Rutherford and Sohail Tanvir.
