BR vs SLK Team Previews
Barbados Royals
Kyle Mayers and Rakheem Cornwall played brilliantly in the previous match to basically end the contest early on. They hit seven sixes between them and the Royals ended up winning by 7 wickets. The batting lineup also features David Miller, Azam Khan, and Harry Tector.
There is quite a lot of batting depth and the form that the top order has shown is encouraging as well.
Obed McCoy and Jason Holder are the two bowlers that will lead the way for the Royals. In McCoy, we think the Royals have the best T20 bowler playing for the West Indies right now.
Barbados Royals Playing 11
David Miller, Quinton de Kock, Jason Holder, Obed McCoy, Rahkeem Cornwall, Kyle Mayers, Corbin Bosch, Harry Tector, Joshua Bishop, Ramon Simmonds, Azam Khan.
St Lucia Kings
The St. Lucia Kings appear to be the weakest team we have seen so far in CPL 2022. They have one or two batters that can strike it big but they don't really have top-quality batting talent in their squad. Johnson Charles is past his best, Mark Deyal is still developing as a player, and we have not seen enough of Roshon Primus to trust him to score.
We can see this Kings batting lineup struggle for runs throughout the season.
The bowling lineup is a bit better but not by much. Alzarri Joseph picked up four wickets in the previous match but we have seen him be very expensive in T20 cricket. He usually has one or two good performances but then tails off.
Scott Kuggeleijn, Roston Chase, and Kesrick Williams round out a pretty decent bowling unit.
St Lucia Kings Playing 11
Johnson Charles, Faf du Plessis, Mark Deyal, Roston Chase, Roshon Primus, Tim David, David Wiese, Alzarri Joseph, Scott Kuggeleijn, Jeavor Royal, Preston McSween.

Pitch and Conditions
There is some rain around in St. Kitts but hopefully, nothing that will cause too many interruptions. The pitch has been excellent for batting so far and that should continue. There is always a bit of pace in the wicket at Warner Park and that aids the batters. A run rate of around 8-9 per over should be seen as par.
