MATCH PREVIEW     

The Caribbean Premier League 2025 is entering a crucial phase where teams will look to build a lead on the points table. The Saint Lucia Kings will face a tough challenge as they take on the Trinbago Knight Riders in the 10th game.

Both teams will play hard in the middle, and we expect a nail-biting contest.  

Saint Lucia Kings Preview      

David Wiese and his men did well in the last game to register their first win for the season. They held their nerves during the dying stages of the game to win by 3 runs against the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots. They are up against this season’s favorites in the upcoming game and shall start behind on cricket betting sites. Wiese would like a strong performance from his bowlers as they struggled in the last game.  

Johnson Charles delivered an electrifying start in the last game, and he will aim for a similar show from Tim Seifert. Roston Chase will look to anchor the innings in the middle order and add runs with Ackeem Auguste and Tim David. Delano Potgieter and David Wiese are good hitters and add depth to the batting lineup.  

Their bowling attack must pull up its socks after the ordinary performance in the last game. The team expects tight spells with the new ball from Keon Gaston and Khary Pierre. Alzarri Joseph and Tabraiz Shamsi are the most experienced bowlers in the team, and they must keep the scoring in check in the middle overs. The team expects a strong show in the supporting role from David Wiese and Roston Chase.  

Expected Starting XI for Saint Lucia Kings         

David Wiese (c), Johnson Charles, Ackeem Auguste, Tim Seifert (wk), Roston Chase, Tim David, Delano Potgieter, Alzarri Joseph, Keon Gaston, Khary Pierre, Tabraiz Shamsi 

Trinbago Knight Riders Preview      

Nicholas Pooran will be upset with the loss against the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons in the last game. A batting collapse saw them go down by 8 runs in the last game, where the middle order struggled with the scoring rate. The side boasts a strong batting lineup, giving them an edge in cricket betting apps. Pooran would like the team to put the last game’s loss behind them and win here.  

Colin Munro has been in sublime form, and the side expects him to deliver an electrifying start in this game with Alex Hales. Nicholas Pooran will look to play aggressively in the middle order and add runs with Kieron Pollard and Keacy Carty. Darren Bravo, Akeal Hosein, and Sunil Narine add to the team’s batting strength and shall look to add quick runs in the lower middle order.  

The bowling attack will face a test as the Saint Lucia Kings are in good form with the bat. Akeal Hosein and Mohammad Amir must strike early in the game to put the team in a strong position. Narine will look to trouble the batters in the middle overs with Nathan Edwards. Bravo and Usman Tariq add to the team’s bowling options.  

Expected Starting XI for Trinbago Knight Riders     

Nicholas Pooran (c & wk), Colin Munro, Alex Hales, Kieron Pollard, Keacy Carty, Darren Bravo, Akeal Hosein, Sunil Narine, Nathan Edwards, Usman Tariq, Mohammad Amir 

TOSS: To Bowl First      

In the last six games, the side chasing the score has won four times. The conditions are challenging for the batters at the start and ease as the game progresses. The side winning the toss would like to take advantage of the conditions by bowling first in this game.  

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS      

There will be slightly cloudy skies over St Lucia. The wicket is flat, and batsmen have always done well. Big scores are the norm, and the surface doesn't offer much to the bowlers. The side batting first will need 180 runs on the board to feel safe, as anything under that is chaseable, as most betting tips would tell.  

OUR PREDICTION      

The Saint Lucia Kings look in good form with the bat. However, the team will be worried about its bowling form. They lack experience in this department and must execute their plans flawlessly against a strong batting lineup. The Trinbago Knight Riders boast a formidable batting lineup, and their bowling attack will thrive in the conditions at the venue. It will be a close contest, but according to our cricket betting tips, the Trinbago Knight Riders will start as favorites.   

Our prediction is for Trinbago Knight Riders to win
