St Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Trinbago Knight Riders Predictions

After winning the CPL in 2021, the Patriots ended the 2022 season in fifth place, having finished 6th three times in the past. The Knight Riders endured a terrible season as well, finishing 6th despite having won the CPL four of the previous seven times.

Trinbago Knight Riders’ Kieron Pollard has a strike-rate of 150.51 in T20 cricket.
Trinbago Knight Riders’ Andre Russell has scored 55, 42*, 70*, 37 20* in his last 8 innings.
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots’ Dewald Brevis scored 32, 15, 57, 41* & 20 in his 5 MLC innings.
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots’ Sherfane Rutherford has scored 37*, 27, 84*, 48* & 38* in his last 9 innings.

Head-to-Head

Both sides have won two and lost two of the past five matches between the sides, along with one match being abandoned with the toss even taking place.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots Form

The Patriots made it two wins from their last four games last season when they beat a depleted Trinbago Knight Riders by seven runs.

The Patriots posted 163/6 off their 20 overs, Sherfane Rutherford slamming 78 off 50 balls.

The Patriots restricted the Knight Riders to 156/7 off their 20 overs, thanks in part to Sheldon Cottrell’s figures of 3/33.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots News

Evin Lewis has been appointed skipper following Dwayne Bravo's move to the Knight Riders. Ambati Rayuduh has joined as the Patriots’ marquee player fresh from helping Chennai Super Kings lift their fifth IPL title.

Patriots rookie Kofi James is one to keep an eye on, but big-hitting batter/keeper Tristan Stubbs will now miss the CPL season for the Patriots, but fellow-South Africans Dewald Brevis, Corbin Bosch and George Linde are in the squad, alongside Afghanistan's Izharulhaq Naveed.

Trinbago Knight Riders Form

Trinbago Knight Riders lost their last three games of last season in a row, the last being a 37-run loss to the Amazon.

Amazon scored 173/6 off their 20 overs, with Sunil Narine (2/23) the pick of the bowlers.

The Knight Riders struggled to 136 all out off their 20 overs, Samit Patel top-scoring with just 34 runs.

Trinbago Knight Riders News

Dwayne Bravo is back with the side he previously led to CPL glory, while Sri Lanka paceman Matheesha Pathirana and big-hitting Proteas batter Rilee Rossouw are slated to make their CPL debuts.

Verdict

Trinbago Knight Riders v St Kitts and Nevis Patriots

I am backing Trinbago Knight Riders to win. I am also backing Kieron Pollard to top score for Trinbago Knight Riders.

Dewald Brevis is a good bet to top score for the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots.
