Saint Lucia Kings will lock horns with Jamaica Tallawahs on Friday in St Kitts. While the Jamaican team would be coming into this game on the back of a comprehensive win against the Patriots in their last encounter, the Kings on the other side, lost to Guyana Amazon Warriors in their last respective clash.
The two teams have met earlier in the competition where Jamaica dominated the Saint Lucia side thoroughly after they posted a mammoth 255/5 in 20 overs and then bundled out the Kings for 135 to win the match by 120 runs.
The Tallawahs would be relying upon Andre Russell to unleash the kind of knock he played in the previous encounter when the two sides faced each other. The aggressive right-handed batsman notched up a 14-ball 50*. He did show some good form against the patriots as well after scoring 28 off 17 that included three maximums.
On the other hand, Lucia Kings team need someone in the top order to give them a steady start as the presence of Roston Chase and Tim David is enough to capitalise on a decent beginning to the innings.
The Kings have so far won 4 matches out of the seven that they have played while Jamaica have suffered defeats in four out of the seven matches in which they have featured.

Pitch Report
The track in St Kitts is expected to have something on offer for the bowlers, especially spinners. The batsmen might find it difficult to score runs quickly. The dew can play some role in the later half of the game, so, if you win the toss, bowl first.
