Saint Lucia Kings (SLK) will square off against Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) in the ninth match of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2023. SLK have played two games in the CPL 2023 so far and emerged victorious in one instance. Meanwhile, their third match was called off due to rain without a ball being bowled.
As far as TKR’s campaign is concerned, they will be taking the field for the first time in the tournament. It is worth mentioning that their opening fixture in the league was also abandoned due to persistent showers.
With experience of two matches behind their back, the Saint Lucia-based side will look to register their second win in the CPL 2023. On the other hand, TKR would be aiming to start their campaign on a good note.
CPL 2023, 9th Match:
- Date and time: August 25; 10:00 am local | 2:00 pm GMT | 07:30 am IST
- Venue: Warner Park, Basseterre
Warner Park Pitch Report:
The Warner Park cricket pitch provides batters with a more favourable condition compared to bowlers, and the ball becomes increasingly conducive to batting as the match progresses. However, bowlers do have the chance to take early wickets in the beginning phase. The team winning the toss will look to bowl first.
