Team Previews
Pirates Bay Raiders (PBR) Preview
The Pirates Bay Raiders are the undisputed leaders of the tournament with 7 straight wins. Their batting has been phenomenal, led by Evin Lewis (405 runs), who has been in devastating form. Shammon Hooper (8 wickets) has been their standout bowler, providing crucial breakthroughs.
In their last match, they chased down 83 against Mt Irvine Surfers with 4 wickets in hand, thanks to Hooper (34 off 20) and Josh Telemaque (28 off 9). Their ability to win from tough situations makes them favorites.
Pigeon Point Skiers (PPS) Preview
The Pigeon Point Skiers are 3rd with 4 wins and 4 losses. Akiel Cooper (224 runs) has been their top batter, while Nicholas Ali (7 wickets) leads their bowling. However, their middle-order collapses (like the 103/4 chase vs King Bay Royals) have been a concern.
Their last match saw them falling 37 runs short while chasing 140, exposing their batting fragility under pressure. If they don’t improve their consistency, the Raiders will dominate.
