Every time St Lucia Zouks seem to build some sort of momentum, they are pegged back with a loss. Their batting hasn’t really been consistent and it is the bowlers who’ve pulled them through on most occasions. Mohammad Nabi has been the star with the ball and unlike most other teams, the SLZ pacers have done well with Kesrick Williams and Scott Kuggeleijn taking 22 wickets between them.
They run into a dominant Trinbago Knight Riders side who’ve been absolutely magnificent throughout this tournament so far. The three-time champions have found players stepping up at different junctures It is largely their batting that has flourished and in fact, they could be termed as the best batting side in this CPL so far.
St Lucia Zouks have odds priced at 2.40 while the Trinbago Knight Riders stand at 1.57.

RECOMMENDED BET: Barbados Tridents to win the toss at 1.90
They are up against Barbados Tridents who are on a four-game losing streak. The problem for Barbados has been their star players like Rashid Khan, Johnson Charles, Mitchell Santner and Jason Holder have been way too inconsistent and that has probably cost them.
The Tridents have also had issues with their death bowling with most of their bowlers ineffective after the first half of the innings. The onus will be on Holder to find the right bowlers to bowl in the death.
Barbados Tridents have odds priced at 2.25 while the Jamaica Tallawahs stand at 1.64.
