Teams Status

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots made it to the semi-finals on the basis of their superb start to the tournament. Had it not been for their five out of five wins in their first as many games, they’d have missed out on the playoffs and possibly finished last, such was their performances in the second hald of the round robin stages.

They won just one of their last give matches and evaporated as the tournament progressed.

The man responsible for a lot of their troubles has been their superstar Chris Gayle, who has been disappointing – to say the least – in CPL 2021 so far.

That said, nothing is still lost and they can still recover and keep their eyes on the top prize, which is to capture their maiden title.

They will take confidence in the fact that they beat Guyana Amazon Warriors by comfortable margins in both their meetings in the round robin stage.

In both those outings, the Patriots had gotten superb starts in run chase from their openers, Devon Thomas and Evin Lewis, both could again be thorns for Guyana’s bowling.

Guyana Amazon Warriors

Guyana’s playoffs spot was in uncertain midway through their campaign but they finished the round robin stage strongly, winning four of their last five, including all of their final three matches of the round robin stage to seal the final berth.

During those trio of wins they have had varied heroes, with Brandon King shining (77) against St Lucia, Nicholas Pooran playing the captain’s knock against Jamaica and Romario Shepherd rescuing the innings against Jamaica in the follow-up game.

One setback for Guyana could be the loss of their veteran allrounder Mohammad Hafeez, who has been recalled to Pakistan for national duty. In his absence, it would be up to his like-for-like compatriot Shoaib Malik to fill the void.

Tipster’s Angle

Tip: St Kitts and Nevis Patriots to win @ 1.82

Granted that Gaylestorm has been quite quiet this campaign, no one would be surprised if it suddenly comes alive in the semi-final. Apart from that, the Patriots’ regular opening pairing is also quite good as explained above. The gut-feel plays here is for the Patriots to utilize their greater experience and win this one. The play can be found on 22Bet.

Tip: Chris Gayle Total Runs Over 20.5 @ 1.832

We won’t just stop at that. We will double down on our Gayle bet. It would barely take a half an hour stay at the crease to provide fireworks and even less for him to cover the 20.5-run spread available at 22Bet for 1.832 odds.
