St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and Guyana Amazon Warriors are expected to square off against one another in the 8th match of the 2023 Caribbean Premier League on August 25 at Warner Park Cricket Ground in Basseterre. The game will kick off at 4:30 AM IST. Both teams are currently winless at this stage and have been a victim of unforgiving rain-affected games.
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots lost their last game against Jamaica Tallawahs as their batting and bowling departments led them down. The batters failed to put up a strong total on the board and their bowlers were tonked around the park as Tallawahs completed a fine victory by a margin of 8 wickets with 21 balls to spare. Following their defeat in the last game, St Kitts and Nevis have slipped to the 3rd position in the points table while their NRR has worsened to – 1.715.
Guyana Amazon Warriors on the other hand have only played one game so far against St Lucia Kings which eventually got called off. Unlike St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, the team has had very little game time and are eager enough to climb up the points table. They are ranked 5th in the points table and are yet to open their account with a victory in this tournament.
With the stage well set up for an exciting showdown, the upcoming SKN vs GUY Dream11 contest will be a scintiliating one provided the weather stays clear.

Azam Khan showed some glimpses of his extraordinary power-hitting capabilities in the last game against St Lucia Kings where he scored a quick-fire knock of 21 (11). He should definitely be considered as a powerful pinch-hitter in your Dream11 team. Dominic Drakes had a decent outing with the bat and the ball for Guyana Amazon Warriors scoring 29 (22) and returning decent figures of 1/28 in his four overs. The game ended in a very one-sided affair but Drakes asked some serious questions to Jamaica Tallawahs with his all-round performance. He should be considered as one of your go-to all-rounders to feature in your Dream11 squad. Blessing Muzarabani was all over the place and emerged as the most expensive bowler leaking runs at almost 13 RPO. He should be someone you should look to avoid while strengthening your bowling arsenal.
