Trinbago Knight Riders vs Guyana Amazon Warriors Team Preview & Squads
Trinbago Knight Riders
Apart from two losses to the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the league stage, Kieron Pollard‘s team has had a fantastic run in the event. They reserved their best for the finals and made a great statement against the Warriors in the first qualifier. Pollard wants his team to be inspired by their victory and add another pearl to their crown.
Chadwick Walton was outstanding in the previous match and would like to get off to a strong start with Martin Guptill. The middle order is in good shape, and the team would like to see partnerships amongst Nicholas Pooran, Pollard, and Andre Russell, all of whom are capable of winning the game on their own. Sunil Narine, Dwayne Bravo, and Akeal Hosein will bat in the lower middle order for the side, which has depth.
As the Warriors have an in-form top order, the side will require early wickets from Ali Khan and Akeal Hosein. Sunil Narine and Brabo are the squad’s most experienced bowlers, and the team expects them to deliver in the middle overs. Waqar Salamkheil, Russell, and Terrance Hinds round out the side options.

Guyana Amazon Warriors
When it mattered most, Imran Tahir’s team delivered. In the second qualifier against the Jamaica Tallawahs, they batted and bowled brilliantly to win by 81 runs. The onus is now on the team to break the curse in the final. They are up against the most successful squad in tournament history, and Tahir expects his guys to give it their all.
This year, Saim Ayub has been solid, and he and Kelvin Anderson must establish a strong opening wicket stand in this game. The team will also expect a strong performance from their best batter, Shai Hope, at No. 3, who must form partnerships with Shimron Hetmyer and Azam Khan. Keemo Paul, Romario Shepherd, and Odean Smith are all strong strikers who help to solidify this lineup.
In this match, the bowling attack will face a significant task. To put the Knight Riders under strain, Dwaine Pretorius and Romario Shephard must score early wickets. Tahir will want to lead from the front and bowl strong spells with Gudakesh Motie in the middle overs. In the supporting roles, Ronsford Beaton and Odean Smith must deliver.
