CPL 2024, Match - 07 | SKN vs GUY | Fantasy Tips, Prediction & Preview

St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots will take on the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the seventh match of Caribbean Premier League 2024. The Patriots lost the last game against the Saint Lucia Kings, while the Warriors defeated the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons in their opening game.  

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots currently sit in fifth place on the standings, with one win in three matches. The side is coming off two back-to-back losses and will be hoping to end their losing streak and go back to the winning ways. They went down by 5 wickets in the last game. Fletcher would feel upset with the loss as his bowlers failed to defend 201 runs. They must get their campaign back on track, and a better show from the bowling attack is needed. Evin Lewis hit a brilliant hundred in the previous game. It was a disastrous show with the ball. Ashmead Need and Anrich Nortje must do well with the new ball to put the batters under pressure. 

On the other hand, the Guyana Amazon Warriors has so far played only one game in the tournament and has managed to win that game over Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. With two points to their name, they are in the fourth position and hope to register their second win of the season. Imran Tahir's side defeated the opposition in their opening game by 3 wickets. Tahir would like his team to build on this momentum and improve their position on the points table. They have depth in the batting lineup and expect runs from Romario Shepherd, Keemo Paul, and Dwaine Pretorius. Shepherd and Gudakesh Motie bowled well in the last game and must do well in the middle overs. Tahir would look to use his experience and do well along with Shamar Joseph.
