TKR vs JAM Dream11 Team Prediction

Let’s take a look at how playing XIs are shaping up for both the teams in today match prediction.

Trinbago Knight Riders Squad

Kieron Pollard (C), Lendl Simmons, Sunil Narine, Colin Munro, Tim Seifert (wk), Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo, Fawad Ahmed, Sikandar Raza, Khary Pierre, Ali Khan, Anderson Phillip, Amir Jangoo, Tion Webster, Akeal Hosein, Jayden Seales, Pravin Tambe

Trinbago Knight Riders Team News

• After the first win, Trinbago Knight Riders will mostly go with the same playing XI against the Tallawahs.
• Sunil Narine has started brilliantly with the bat also and he is being considered in genuine all-rounders’ category now. Lendl Simmons and Colin Munro have enough experience to ride through the difficult situation if needed. But team management need to have clear mind on the roles of this pair.
• Tim Seifert is another top 3 material and TKR somehow need to find enough overs for him early in the innings. Bravo brothers and Kieron Pollard will round-off the batting lineup for this clash.
• TKR can try Pravin Tambe in place of Sikandar Raza who anyways is playing out of his position right now. A proper leg-spinner will strengthen the bowling lineup with Sunil Narine, Fawad Ahmed and Ali Khan also featuring in.

Jamaica Tallawahs Team News

• Jamaica Tallawahs will also go in with the same playing XI unless any late injuries before the toss.
• Glenn Phillips has started off from where he left last year for the Tallawahs. Chadwick Walton will be looking to support him after the disappointment of the first match.
• Nicholas Kirton is a young talent that Jamaica should continue with at least for a couple matches. Asif Ali, Andre Russell and Carlos Brathwaite are part of the explosive middle order.
• Oshane Thomas looked off the radar in the first match and Jamaica has another option in Fidel Edwards if they want to make a change. Spin bowling trio of Veerasammy Permaul, Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Sandeep Lamichhane is very well placed.

Captain Picks

For Small Leagues

• Glenn Phillips has been the most consistent player for Jamaica Tallawahs for last couple of seasons. And he has begun well this year also. He slammed 44 from just 29 balls against the Zouks which also included 3 fours and 3 sixes. He will be the popular choice for captaincy position.
• Andre Russell has worked on his fitness in last 6 months’ break from cricket. He is looking fit and also started bowling full quota of his overs in T20 cricket. We all know how dangerous he is with the bat in hand. If you want to play it safe then Andre Russell is the pick for you.
• Sunil Narine is another obvious pick from this encounter. He was Man of the Match in the first game with two scalps and a half century with the bat. A candidate who can open both innings for his team is a ‘Gold’ for any fantasy team.

For Grand Leagues

• Ali Khan is another talent on whom you can bet upon if you are looking to stand out from the crowd. Experts rate him very highly on skills and he had a good first match against Guyana. His death bowling credentials are second to none in the competition.
• Mujeeb Ur Rahman is an important part of the Tallawahs’ bowling lineup. Also this being the second match of the day, pitch is expected to play its tricks and who better to exploit it than this Afghan sensation. He picked up 2 for 25 against the Zouks.
• Asif Ali rescued Jamaica from a critical point in the chase against the Zouks. He is the link between the top order and the power hitters in the batting lineup. He made 47 off 27 balls to take Jamaica home. He can be an option in Grand Leagues.

Who will win TKR vs JAM Today Match Prediction?

This has all the ingredients to become a crackerjack of a contest. Both teams are evenly matched and having superstars in every department of the game. Toss will be crucial given that this match will be played on a used pitch. As per our Dream11 prediction, TKR are slight favourites to win this game but you can’t really measure the effects of Andre Russell before the match.
