BAR vs GUY Dream11 Prediction: We are moving towards the business end of this year’s Caribbean Premier League. Guyana Amazon Warriors will be playing their last group match today against Barbados Tridents. Guyana are in a comfortable position but they need to keep in mind that they have played at least a game more than the others. Also, avoiding TKR in the semifinal can be their objective. On the other hand, Barbados Tridents have failed to repeat last year’s performances but all is not lost for them yet. We will preview the match in our Dream11 fantasy cricket.
Barbados Tridents will play their second consecutive match against the same opposition. In the last match, they were hammered to say the least. Batting first, they were off to a worst possible start in T20 cricket. They were reeling at 27-8 and only because of an innings of 36 from Mitchell Santner that they were saved from a world record. The Tridents posted 92 on the board and were only left to blame themselves. In reply, Rashid Khan and Hayden Walsh Jr bowled well but all knew where the match was headed.
Guyana Amazon Warriors will play their third match in as many days. Last evening, they beat St Lucia Zouks comfortably. Almost all their bowlers had pretty good outings with Naveen-ul-Haq and Keemo Paul picking up two scalps each. They restricted the Zouks to a total of 109 runs. In the chase, Chandrapaul Hemraj spent some important time in the middle before Shimron Hetmyer guided Guyana Amazon Warriors to another victory chasing a moderate total.
In head-to-head comparisons, Guyana Amazon Warriors are dominating the proceedings here with a lead of 10-5 over their rivals Barbados Tridents. Same trend continues even in last 5 matches as 4 of them have gone Guyana’s way. In the first meeting this year, Guyana Amazon Warriors beat the Tridents comfortably on Tuesday.
Several thunderstorms are forecast for today around The Brian Lara stadium in Tarouba. The organizers would still remain hopeful for a full 20 over game as the drainage system at the venue is top-notch. The pitches this season still remain under strict scrutiny. Surfaces have been slightly better than the ones at Queen’s Park Oval but still the low-scoring matches have been a routine here.

As per our Dream11 predictions, Guyana Amazon Warriors will be the favourites to win this match against Barbados Tridents. But still one can hope for a better cricket match than the last meeting between these two sides at the same venue earlier. Barbados Tridents are still alive in this competition but not by much. So, they need to start accumulating some points if they want to have any shots at defending their last year’s title.
