Netizens eyes’ are all fixed on the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St. Lucia. The Saint Lucia Kings (SLK) are all set to take the ground against the Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR). The match is scheduled for September 10.
The Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St. Lucia is all set to witness the next match scheduled to be played between the Saint Lucia Kings (SLK) and Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR). The match is much anticipated among the netizens due to both the team’s previous performances and the pitch on which the match is to take place.
The stadium’s pitch has been beneath the cover for a few days due to rain. The last match was also a rain-hit game here. That is why the surface is anticipated to play slowly with only a little bounce. Thus, the toss can be a game-changer, and bowling first will be way better according to the pitch. The match is anticipated to be a high-scoring game, with both groups having interesting batting lineups able to post big numbers.
In the history of the CPL game, SLK and TKR faced each other about 24 times in a match in which Knight Riders secured 16 matches, while Kings won six. Two of these games have been finished with no results. Now, the match will be held at SLK’s home ground, so their confidence will be more productive than Knight Riders.
Trinbago Knight Riders could not chase down a score of around 175 in the last game in spite of having a solid batting unit, whereas St. Lucia has been great in handling both departments. Subsequently, it is anticipated the Saint Lucia Kings will win this game. No injuries have been reported, and both sides are set to play with their full-strengthen squad.
SLK has two wins; with four points, they are third. In the meantime, TKR has two points and is fifth on the table. The Knights took on St Lucia in their last home leg game. TKR was looking to continue its winning energy and settle the score from the last match against SLK, and they did precisely that. This comprehensive win for the Knights not only ensured them a spot in the playoffs but also confirmed a berth in the top 2 spots.
