CPL 2021 Preview: Table-toppers clash as St Kitts And Nevis Patriots take on Jamaica Tallawahs
Jamaica Tallawahs will be up against St Kitts And Nevis Patriots on Thursday in St Kitts. While the Patriots are sitting at the helm of the points table at the moment with three wins in three matches, Jamaica are at number two with a couple of wins from three games that they have played. Both the sides will be coming into this game on the back of some fine performance in their last respective encounters. Tallawahs defeated Barbados Royals by 6 wickets in their last match while Patriots beat Guyana Amazon Warriors by the same margin. The Jamaica bowling attack looked in some good form against the Royals as the side managed to restrict the opposition for a lesser total while Kennar Lewis was in some form as he helped his side to come out of a tricky situation and eventually win the match. On the other side, Patriots rode on an impressive show from their batting attack against the Warriors. Sherfane Rutherford has been in good touch and has already notched up a couple of fifties for his team in the competition. Both the sides have some brutal strikers of the ball and a high voltage drama can be expected.
