In CPL, Guyana Amazon Warriors is the unluckiest team as it has reached the finals 5 times and is yet to lift the trophy even once. Even in the last season, the team managed to remain unbeaten throughout the group stage but ended up losing the final to Barbados Tridents. As a result, the players will be keen to put in performances that will help the team go all the way in CPL 2020.
On the other hand, St. Lucia Zouks have been the most underperforming teams in the history of the tournament, having never been able to qualify for a single final in the seven seasons they have featured. In the past fixtures of Guyana Amazon Warriors vs St Lucia Zouks, GAW has had a clear upper hand with an impressive win percentage of 69.2%. Looking at the past records of this fixture and the tournament in general, GAW comes out as the favorites.
In CPL 2020, the side from Guyana has fielded a fairly young team with most players in their 20s and only Ross Taylor and Imran Tahir as the senior players in the side. Shimron Hetmeyer, Sherfane Rutherford, Brandon King, and Keemo Paul will have the onus to lead the team from the front. On the contrary, the Darren Sammy-led SLZ has a lot of experience as many players in the squad are in their 30s. Kesrick Williams, Mohammad Nabi, and Andre Fletcher will be the go-to-guys in the squad, especially with the absence of South African players like Colin Ingram and Rilee Rossouw.
With both teams having a stark difference in their overall setup, it would be interesting to see who comes out on top. If you are trying to make the Guyana Amazon Warriors vs St Lucia Zouks match prediction for your CPL Fantasy Cricket team, then here are a few tips and stats that will help you make the right choices.
