Team Previews
Barbados Pelicans Preview:
Barbados Pelicans enter this clash with a desperate need to find rhythm, currently sitting 5th on the points table after a demoralizing 64-run loss. Despite boasting quality names like Nyeem Young and Junior Sinclair, their batting collapsed under pressure in their first match. Nyeem Young, though scoring 33 runs, lacked support from the other end. Their bowling unit, led by Junior Sinclair, showed sparks of brilliance but failed to sustain pressure throughout.
The team will need a solid foundation at the top from Leniko Boucher and Shian Brathwaite while expecting middle-order revival from Kevin Wickham and Zishan Motara. Bowling will rely heavily on Joshua Bishop’s spin and Simmonds’ variations. Improvement in their batting approach and powerplay utilization will be crucial if they hope to overturn their form.
Windward Islands Infernos Preview:
Windward Islands Infernos look far more settled, with a clinical 25-run win in their opening fixture. Alick Athanaze starred with a match-winning 91, displaying strokeplay and composure. On the bowling front, Darel Cyrus emerged as a match-winner, taking 4 wickets and choking the chase at key junctures.
Infernos have a balanced side with the likes of Ackeem Auguste, Dillon Douglas, and Shadrack Descarte offering strength in depth. While their middle order still remains untested, their ability to defend totals and bowl tight lines makes them a dangerous opposition. If they manage to support Athanaze’s brilliance and strike early with the ball again, they could repeat their winning performance.

Favourite Team Today
Barbados Pelicans are our favourite to win today’s match. Despite their heavy loss in the previous outing, the team has the firepower in both departments to bounce back strongly. With players like Nyeem Young, Junior Sinclair, and Joshua Bishop offering genuine all-round value, Barbados has a more versatile unit compared to the slightly top-heavy Windward Islands. If their top-order finds form and their bowling unit delivers as expected, Barbados Pelicans could easily dominate the match. Windward Islands rely heavily on Alick Athanaze, and if he falls early, they might struggle to maintain momentum. Overall, the depth in Barbados Pelicans’ squad makes them slight favourites.
