St Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Saint Lucia Kings Betting Odds

Saint Lucia Kings to have a better opening partnership than St Kitts and Nevis Patriots

Saint Lucia Kings opening batters have dominated the games this season and have been one of the biggest positives this season. So far this season, Saint Lucia Kings have managed an opening stand of 25, 61, 85 and 97 averaging 67 runs so far in the tournament and have conceded just 19.75 runs in those games which showcases their dominance in opening exchanges. What makes this even more intriguing is the fact in each of the last three games, Saint Lucia Kings have managed to register better opening partnerships than their opponent. On the other hand, even though SKN Patriots have had a dismal campaign thus far they have averaged 41 runs opening stand this season which is far less than Saint Lucia Kings hence we reckon you should make use of this great opportunity to make some decent returns.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Saint Lucia Kings Top Team Batters

Andre Fletcher to be St Kitts and Nevis Patriots’s top batter

Even though Sherfane Rutherford is the top scorer for SKN Patriots we are still going to stick with Andre Fletcher for this game as he has been more consistent. Fletcher has managed to score 51, 32, 11 and 56 in the last four games which makes him our top pick for the game.

Johnson Charles to be Saint Lucia Kings’s top batter

Johnson Charles have had a fabulous campaign thus far and its isn’t a surprise that he is the top scorer for Saint Lucia Kings and has played a key role in the last two wins for his side. So far Charles has scored 24, 30, 37 and 78 which makes him our top pick for the game.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Saint Lucia Kings Top Team Bowlers

Corbin Bosch to be St Kitts and Nevis Patriots’s top bowler

We are going to stick with Corbin Bosch once again as his form can not go unnoticed. In the last three games Bosch has picked up five wickets and has been the most in-form bowler for SKN Patriots which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Khary Pierre to be Saint Lucia Kings’s top bowler

They haven't been a standout bowler for Saint Lucia Kings which is a good thing as most of the bowlers have stepped up which makes them less reliant on one individual. Khary Pierre ended up with 4/20 in the last game which makes him our top pick for the upcoming fixture.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: Saint Lucia Kings

It's fair to say SKN Patriots have had a disastrous campaign, one which has been filled with disappointment for the fans as their team failed to show up this term and are already knocked out of the competitions. In the last game, SKN Patriots batmen showed some character as they posted a first innings total of 220 runs but the bowlers failed to show up once again as they lost the game with eight wickets to spare.

Saint Lucia Kings had a slow start to the season as they had one win in the first four games. Since then Saint Lucia Kings have registered back to back wins. In the last game, Saint Lucia Kings bowler turned the screw as they bowled out Barbados Royals for 105 and eventually won the game by 90 runs.

Considering the form of both teams, it isn't the surprise that bookmakers have tagged Saint Lucia Kings as clear favourites giving them odds as low as 1.50. It's hard to fathom any other result other than a Saint Lucia Kings victory hence we reckon you should go with the bookmakers on this one as Saint Lucia Kings would bag maximum points in the upcoming fixture.
