Trinbago Knight Riders vs Barbados Royals Predictions

Two of the top-performing teams this season have both hit speed bumps and have suffered losses that have kept them away from the top of the table. The Royals have lost three in a row, and that run of form should make them easy pickings for Trinbago, who have won one of their last two matches.

Trinbago Knight Riders’ Nicholas Pooran hit seven sixes in his innings of 93 against the Patriots.
Trinbago Knight Riders’ Jason Roy has scored 64 & 41 in his last 2 innings.
Barbados Royals’ David Miller has scored 21, 21 & 71* in his last 5 innings.
Barbados Royals’ Quinton de Kock has scored 115, 59*, 22 & 35 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

Trinbago have won the last three matches in a row against the Royals.

Trinbago Knight Riders Form

After beating the Patriots, Trinbago fell to their second loss in three matches when they lost to an on-fire Kings side by 80 runs.

The Kings got off to a flying start, reaching 178/1 in the 16th overs. They kept the momentum going to post an impressive 218/6 off their 20 overs. Kieron Pollard (4/38) was the pick of the Trinbago bowlers, all of whom took a pounding.

Jason Roy (41 off 29 balls) started well, but the Trinbago top-order caved in and were 56/6 in the 8th over. Some lower-order resistance prevented them from suffering an enormous defeat by lifting them to a final score of 138 all out in the 18th over.

Trinbago Knight Riders Team News

Trinbago will hope to turn the page on their disastrous 80-run loss to the Kings by getting back to their match-winning form.

Barbados Royals Form

After beating the Patriots mid-September, the Royals went on to lose their next three matches.

Their last match was against the Amazon, who piled up 219/8 off their 20 overs. Maheesh Theekshana

(3/15) was the pick of the Royals bowlers.

The Royals collapsed to 95/8 in the 14th over, but a phenomenal innings of 71* off 34 balls (eight fours, five sixes) by David Miller allowed them to save some face, ending their 20 overs on 172/9 to lose by 47 runs.

Barbados Royals Team News

The Royals need to make urgent changes in order to bounce back to their winning form, as they are in danger of missing out on the playoffs.
