BAR vs JAM Dream11 Prediction: Teams in the lower half of the points table will have a crucial round of matches coming up this week in CPL 2020. In one of those encounters, Barbados Tridents will take on Jamaica Tallawahs in the 14th match of the season. Defending champions are having a torrid time this year as they have lost 3 out of 4 matches they played till now. They surely can’t afford another slip up here against the Tallawahs. We will preview the match in our Dream11 fantasy cricket.
In the last match against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, Johnson Charles and Shai Hope gave a reasonable start to the Tridents’ innings. Kyle Mayers also contributed in the middle order but Jason Holder’s run-out derailed the Tridents for some time. Corey Anderson and Ashley Nurse provided the final push to the innings as they posted 151 runs on the board. In bowling, Jason Holder and Rashid Khan bowled economical spells but others could not replicate the same as Evin Lewis destroyed the spirits of Barbados Tridents.
Jamaica Tallawahs will be riding high on confidence after their victory over Guyana Amazon Warriors yesterday. With the help of heroics from Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Fidel Edwards, Jamaica Tallawahs restricted the Warriors to only 108 from their 20 overs. After losing Chadwick Walton early in the chase, Glenn Phillips and Jermaine Blackwood looked good for a few more before they got out in their 20s. After a mini-collapse in the middle, Nkrumah Bonner and Andre Russell shared an unbeaten stand to take Jamaica Tallawahs home by 5 wickets.
If we talk about overall record between both the teams, Jamaica Tallawahs have an upper hand over Barbados Tridents with a lead of 8-5 from 14 matches. In last 5 matches, Jamaica Tallawahs were even more dominant by winning 4 matches against their opponents. Barbados Tridents have a big task in their hands if they are to remain in contention for a top 4 finish.
No showers are predicted today in Port of Spain and we can expect a full match under the clear skies. The pitch at Queen’s Park Oval is already looking tired if we look at yesterday’s matches here. Both the teams would be aware of the conditions as this will be their second match here. There are some talks about pitch may get quicker under lights in the night games but we will have to wait and watch for that.

As per our Dream11 predictions, the curves of both these teams are going in opposite directions at this juncture. Jamaica Tallawahs have started to find some momentum while Barbados Tridents are staring down the barrel after three consecutive losses. Barbados Tridents have to play out of their skins to make something out of this encounter against the favourites Jamaica Tallawahs.
