Last season, all three matches of the Trinbago Knight Riders vs Barbados Tridents fixture were won by the latter, which helped them better their overall record against the side from Trinidad. However, even now, TKR has a slight upper hand over the Barbados side with 8 wins out of the 15 matches they have played over seven seasons of the CPL T20 league. With both the teams having able leaders in the shape of Keiron Pollard (TKR) and Jason Holder (BAR), spectators will be in for a game where tactics change almost every other over. While TKR retained as many as 10 players, BAR retained 9 players, which just shows how both the teams prefer to keep the core of the team intact. Alex Hales, Dwayne Bravo, Sunil Narine, Colin Munro, and Rashid Khan will be some of the top players to watch out for in this tie.
With two champion sides competing against each other, one can predict it to be a tightly contested match, which might pretty well go down to the last over.
