The 2024 Caribbean Premier League (CPL) matchup between Barbados Royals and Guyana Amazon Warriors will take place at match number sixteen. Both teams are in the first two spots in the standings after having the best possible starts to the competition. Barbados leads the league with 6 points from 3 games with a net run rate of 2.527. They have not lost a game this season. Guyana, who have the same points but have played one more game that they lost, is one spot behind them.
The Barbados Royals have just lost to Trinbago Knight Riders by a close margin of two wickets. They had won their previous three games, but this was their first loss of the year. This season, the Guyana Amazon Warriors have not dropped a game. They have already won all three of their games, and they recently defeated Saint Lucia Kings by a commanding 6-wicket margin.
This season, Quinton de Kock has been the Royals’ standout player. With a strike rate of 177, the South African opener has hammered 196 runs in just 4 innings. Regretfully, no other squad member has yet to surpass 100 runs at bat. The closest is Rovman Powell, who scores 93 runs in three innings at a 137. This demonstrates that their batting group hasn’t performed well as a whole.
Maheesh Theekshana has been a consistent wicket-taker in the bowling department. The off-spinner from Sri Lanka has claimed 7 wickets in 4 innings, including a 3-26 spell against Trinbago Knight Riders in his previous match.
In four innings, Obed McCoy has also claimed seven wickets, albeit at an economy of 8.14.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who has amassed 136 runs with a strike rate of 194 in three innings, is currently leading their batting charts. With his incredible form, the wicket-keeper hitter will be trying to establish himself at the top. Shimron Hetmyer has also been outstanding, scoring 118 runs with a strike rate of 187 in just three innings.
Tim Robinson is someone you should watch closely as well; he appears to be well-connected. Gudakesh Motie has been the most impressive bowler, capturing nine wickets at an economy rate of just 6.52. He just finished an impressive 3–16 run against the Saint Lucia Kings. Leading from the front, captain Imran Tahir has claimed six wickets at a 9.63 average.
