Rahkeem Cornwall has struggled in the first three games averaging 12.66 runs in the tournament thus. In two of the three games, Cornwall has failed to open the account.

Barbados Royals vs Jamaica Tallawahs Betting Odds

Jamaica Tallawahs to have a better opening partnership than Barbados Royals

After the first few games in the tournament, Jamaica Tallawahs once again are the team to beat this season who have one of the lethal batsmen in Brandon King and have one of the most feared bowling attacks in the tournament. A combination of both these factors results in great starts in the game whether it comes to an opening partnership or getting early breakthrough when it comes to bowling. In the three games so far, Jamaica Tallawahs have managed to get an opening stand of 44, 52 and 1 and the bowlers have responded in these games by getting early breakthroughs as have conceded 25, 24 and 1 opening partnerships in those games. So far the opposition have failed to manage a better opening stand than Jamaica Tallawahs and even though Barbados Royals batters did well against the minnows SKN Patriots it's highly unlikely they would repeat such a feat in the upcoming game.

Barbados Royals vs Jamaica Tallawahs Top Team Batters

Kyle Mayers to be Barbados Royals’s top batter

Barbados Royals disappointment continued in the last game as the batting lineup collapsed for mere 61. It's hard to put much thought into it and even though Kyle Mayers along with other batsmen failed to perform in the game we still believe Mayers would come good and is our top pick for the game.

Brandon King to be Jamaica Tallawahs’s top batter

Brandon King has exploded one again this season and is favourite to become tournament top scorer once again this season. Kings has already bagged two half centuries in three games which makes him our top pick for the game.

Barbados Royals vs Jamaica Tallawahs Top Team Bowlers

Jason Holder to be Barbados Royals’s top bowler

Jason Holder has been the shining light of what has been an underwhelming season thus far and is without doubt their best bowler in this campaign. Even with all the adversity in the last game, Holder still ended up with 2/39 which makes him our top pick for the game.

Mohammad Amir to be Jamaica Tallawahs’s top bowler

Salman Irshad and Mohammad Amir have caused havoc in the opening round of games and are the top two bowlers in the tournament thus far. Considering the fact Amir heads into this game in better form as has ended with 3/20 and 3/33 in the last two games, Amir is our top pick in the upcoming game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Jamaica Tallawahs

Barbados Royals impressive run in the group stage last year seems like an eternity as their struggles is something no one saw coming. Every one expected them to improve from last season and were viewed as one of the favourites to go all the way. With one win in four games, Barbados Royals have bagged three points thus far and are currently fifth on the table.

Jamaica Tallawahs head into this game after a surprising defeat against Guyana Amazon Warriors as they surrendered their three game unbeaten streak. The defending champions conceded 210 runs and eventually lost the game by 34 runs. Regardless of that defeat, Jamaica Tallawahs have shown enough quality thus far to be coined as favourites to win back to back championship.

Regardless of Jamaica Tallawahs performance in the last game, They have one of the lethal bowling attacks in the tournament and is highly unlikely they would concede 200 runs once again which is why bookmakers have sided with the defending champions and have given odds as low as 1.77. We believe you should back the title holders on this game as they would take home maximum points.

  • Barbados Royals to win @ 2.05 (PariMatch)
  • Jamaica Tallawahs to win @ 1.77 (PariMatch)
