Team Previews

Guyana Amazon Warriors Women

The Warriors had a disappointing last season, finishing at the bottom with just one win. However, they lost two close matches – including one to TKR Women in the super over – which showed they aren’t far from challenging the stronger sides. This year, they will depend heavily on experienced campaigner Stafanie Taylor, who brings both batting and bowling balance. Alongside her, opener Lauren Winfield-Hill and Laura Harris will look to provide a good start. Harris, with 128 runs in her last five T20s, comes into this season with strong form.

The absence of Erin Burns, their top run-scorer last season, will be a big blow. But the arrival of Australian all-rounder Madeline Penna and South African pace star Shabnim Ismail strengthens their squad. Ismail was outstanding last season, bagging 9 wickets at an economy of just 4.25 and will be key with the new ball. The Warriors’ middle order, however, remains fragile beyond Taylor, which could be a concern in chasing or setting big targets.

Key Players: Stafanie Taylor, Laura Harris, Shabnim Ismail.

Trinbago Knight Riders Women

TKR Women were finalists last season and will aim to begin WCPL 2025 with a winning note. They rely on their captain and star batter Deandra Dottin, who scored 119 runs last season, the highest for her side. Her pairing with South African power-hitter Lizelle Lee, who enters her maiden WCPL with impressive WBBL numbers (399 runs at SR 155), makes TKR’s top order explosive.

Their middle order has the experienced Jess Jonassen, who adds depth with both bat and ball, and new recruit Shikha Pandey, who brings international experience and reliability. The addition of Indian leg-spinner Salonee Dangore, who was brilliant in domestic cricket, is a smart inclusion to strengthen their bowling. However, TKR Women’s bowling was slightly underwhelming last season, picking up only 19 wickets across games, and this remains an area to improve.

Key Players: Deandra Dottin, Lizelle Lee, Jess Jonassen, Shikha Pandey.

Favourite Team Today

Trinbago Knight Riders Women enter this match as the favorites owing to their strong batting firepower and overall balance. With Deandra Dottin and Lizelle Lee at the top, they have the ability to dominate from ball one, while Jess Jonassen and Shikha Pandey offer stability in the middle order. The inclusion of Salonee Dangore could be a game-changer, providing wicket-taking options in the middle overs.

On the other hand, Guyana Amazon Warriors Women have a few quality players like Stafanie Taylor and Shabnim Ismail, but their middle order lacks consistency. The absence of Erin Burns also leaves a gap in their batting depth. Although GAW Women can challenge TKR Women with their bowling attack, the overall experience and form of TKR Women make them the stronger side heading into this encounter.
