Playing in St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots Stadium
Located on the old parade ground, a stone’s throw from the turbulent seas of the Caribbean, this is where two teams will do battle. Who will emerge triumphant? Time to find out. Located on an old parade ground overlooking the rough waters of the Caribbean, this is where two teams will clash. Which squad has what it takes to come out on top? Only time will tell…
Drinking Jamaica Redbull at the Match
At the Royal Sports Complex in Kingston, it’s not hard to find your way to a refreshing Jamaican Redbird at one of the many concession stands. I like to make the rounds and grab a Redbull or an orange Fanta at one stand, then head over to the other stands for some extra-crispy bake and cheese fries and some corn patties. There are plenty of beef patties, called pan grills, too; my favorite is egg & cheese topped with sliced tomato.
Getting to Know the Team
The Royal’s roster is full of talent, and getting to know their team on the field will show you just how good this group is. Olivier Giroud and Wayne Rooney have been rumored to join, but in the meantime, let’s get to know the players who will be playing tonight. Diego Maradona’s grandson Bruno Urribarri already made a name for himself by scoring a goal for Royal’s last time out. Here are a few more things you should know about the other players that will take to the field tonight… 1) Claude Makélélé- You might not recognize him right away because he has donned many uniforms throughout his career, but Makélélé will play the role of General Manager for the squad and help coach at halftime. 2) Serge Aurier- When he was younger, Aurier wanted to become a doctor or an architect so that he could give back to his country. Instead, he plays football in England’s Premier League where he is one of four African defenders on the team. 3) Andy Kellett- He didn’t even know what cricket was when his dad first signed him up for it!
Learning About Their Opponents
Royal Sports Club has already taken three wins in the inaugural edition of the Caribbean Premier League, but they still have some challenges ahead. They head to the game unbeaten and play their home matches at Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium. After taking on St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and Guyana Amazon Warriors in matches that were comfortable for them, they’ll now be facing Jamaica Tallawahs, who we believe will provide their toughest challenge so far.
Strictly as a cricket betting tips – Royal Sports Club has dominated batting up to this point. Their batting has looked formidable, even against opposition who have been more experienced than Jamaica Tallawahs on these pitches.
Checking Out Prior Game Results
Last year the Trinidad and Tobago Red Steel emerged as the best of nine teams to win the inaugural Caribbean Premier League. With the series beginning again tonight, some past statistics can provide cricket betting tips for gamblers.
It’s safe to say that batsmen generally fare better than bowlers during T20 matches. Interestingly, Trinidad’s squad is made up of 12 fielders and two captains. Most other teams have 11 fielders and one captain. It is worth noting that out of 18 games played last year, Trinidad won 10 while 5 matches were drawn. In a number of those 10 wins, they beat Barbados in both innings — while Barbados never managed to get two innings in a game last year against T&T which meant they only got 20 overs to bat!
Checking Out Performance Stats
Many cricket betting tips suggest that when you’re looking for predictions and recommendations, you should only pay attention to certain stats. So what should you be looking at? Let’s find out.
Predicting the outcome of the match is always a fun exercise in statistical analysis, but few factors have as much bearing on your prediction as the player’s batting order. Look at how each team bats stack up when it comes to batting average and strike rate so that you know who will be able to inflict maximum damage on their opponents.
