GUY vs JAM Dream11 Match Prediction Cricket Guyana Amazon Warriors vs Jamaica Tallawahs CPL T20 22 August

GUY vs JAM Dream11 Prediction: This year’s Caribbean Premier League has produced some exciting cricket so far. In continuation of that, Guyana Amazon Warriors will lock horns with Jamaica Tallawahs in the 8^th match of the season. This round of matches is currently being played at The Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba. Both teams are in similar positions in points table at the moment. Let’s take a look at our Dream11 fantasy preview for this match.

After losing the opening match against TKR, Guyana Amazon Warriors have pulled up their game and beat St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in their last game. Bowlers set up the match for them bowling first. Captain Chris Green looked at his usual best while Imran Tahir and Keemo Paul ran riot from the other end. Imran Tahir took 2 while Keemo Paul picked up 4 wickets to destroy the Patriots. In reply, Shimron Hetmyer led the way with an innings of 71 runs. Other batsmen struggled on a slow pitch but the target wasn’t significant enough to challenge them.

Jamaica Tallawahs lost their last match against Trinbago Knight Riders convincingly. Batting first, Glenn Phillips was brilliant again for them as he slammed 58 runs from 42 balls. But top-order collapse at the other end halted them to an extent. Chadwick Walton, Nicholas Kirton and Rovman Powell were all dismissed on single digits. Asif Ali and Andre Russell made 20s as they posted below par total of 135. In bowling scheme of things, Fidel Edwards, Mujeen Ur Rahman and Sandeep Lamichhane were impressive but others proved expansive in a low-scoring match.

In Head-to-Head comparisons, Guyana Amazon Warriors are dominating the proceedings with a lead of 11-7 against Jamaica Tallawahs in 19 matches between them. One match was washed out in 2015. In recent years too, Guyana Amazon Warriors have taken 4 out of last 5 encounters against the Tallawahs.

Pitch and Conditions

The weather for this afternoon match is set to be fair. Some cloudy periods are predicted but there will be no rain mostly. If we talk about the playing surface, second match will be played on the same pitch. Naturally, spinners will come into play once the ball gets softer. The team which handles the opposition spinners well will have a great chance of winning.

Guyana Amazon Warriors Squad

Chris Green (C), Brandon King, Chandrapaul Hemraj, Shimron Hetmyer, Kevin Sinclair, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Ross Taylor, Sherfane Rutherford, Keemo Paul, Kissoodath Magram, Romario Shepherd, Ashmead Nedd, Naveen-ul-Haq, Imran Tahir, Odean Smith, Anthony Bramble, Jessy Singh

Guyana Amazon Warriors Team News

Guyana Amazon Warriors will go into the match with the same playing XI unless any injuries.
Last year’s top scorer Brandon King is yet to make a significant contribution this season along with Chandrapaul Hemraj. Opening partnership will be crucial to Guyana’s fortunes this year.
The middle-order is power-packed with the like of Shimron Hetmyer, Ross Taylor, Nicholas Pooran and Sherfane Rutherford featuring in. Shimron Hetmyer has been excellent so far along with Ross Taylor while other two are yet to fire.
Keemo Paul and Chris Green are using the conditions brilliantly with the former particularly firing on all cylinders. They are also useful batsmen down the order while Romario Shepherd, Imran Tahir and Naveen-ul-Haq will round-off the bowling department.

Jamaica Tallawahs Team News

A couple of changes are expected in the playing XI of Jamaica Tallawahs for this match.
Glenn Phillips will look to continue his domination but Chadwick Walton has not been that great at the other end. Youngster Nicholas Kirton had two poor outings and Jermaine Blackwood is likely to replace him in the XI.
Big-hitters in Andre Russell, Carlos Brathwaite and Asif Ali are important cogs in Jamaican wheels but the form of captain Rovman Powell is a worry for team management.
In bowling department, Veerasammy Permaul is expected to be back after missing out in the last match. He along with Sandeep Lamichhane and Mujeeb Ur Rahman will form a strong core in spin-bowling role. Fidel Edwards will be the only frontline pacer for Jamaica Tallawahs.

Captain Picks

For Small Leagues

With the scores of 71 & 63* coming into this encounter, Shimron Hetmyer is an obvious choice for captain in any fantasy competition. His ability to play spin well will help him in the match-ups against Sandeep Lamichhane and Mujeeb Ur Rahman in this encounter.
Keemo Paul is on fire with the ball in this year’s CPL so far. At some point of time, his batting will also come in the picture. He accounted for 4 St Kitts batsman in the last match. He is the perfect choice for you if you are looking for a captain in the all-rounders’ category.
If Andre Russell is playing a T20 match, then you can’t look beyond him for captain’s pick. Even though, he had a moderate start to the season but you have to have him in the team purely because of his abilities.

For Grand Leagues

Asif Ali is the perfect foil for the likes of Andre Russell and Carlos Brathwaite in Jamaica Tallawahs middle order. He has been impressive in the first two innings this year with the scores of 47 & 22. He can definitely be a pick for the grand leagues.
Mujeeb Ur Rahman has enjoyed his time at the Brian Lara stadium so far. He has been able to grip the ball and extracted significant help from the pitch. Given Guyana’s strong middle order, he will be the key for Jamaica.
Imran Tahir is another dependable option from this match as you can always bet upon a quality spinner in T20 cricket, especially on these Caribbean pitches. Imran Tahir has picked up two wickets each in a couple of matches so far.

Who will win GUY vs JAM Today Match Prediction?

This is a clash between two evenly matched teams. Guyana Amazon Warriors look a better unit overall but not by much when the opposition has Andre Russell in their ranks. Interesting match-up will be between Guyana middle order and Jamaica spinners. As per our Dream11 predictions, Guyana Amazon Warriors may close out the match if they are able to stop certain Andre Russell.
