Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR-W) lock horns with Guyana Amazon Warriors (GAW-W) in match No. 3 of the ongoing Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) 2024 at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad on Saturday, August 24.

Trinbago Knight Riders couldn’t qualify for the finals last year as they managed to win only one out of their four games in the season. They didn’t get off to a good start this season either as they lost their opening game to defending champions Barbados Royals by seven wickets as Hayley Matthews’ unbeaten 67 off 56 balls helped the Royals chase down a 114-run target with 17 balls to spare.

Meanwhile, Guyana Amazon Warriors, who lost to Barbados Royals in the summit clash last year, suffered another defeat against the Matthews-led side to start their campaign. In a low-scoring thriller, the Royals chased down a 119-run target with a wicket and one ball to spare. Matthew scored an unbeaten 61 off 58 balls in this clash as Shabnim Ismail’s four-for went in vain.

Probable Best Bowler: Shabnim Ismail

South African pacer Shabnim Ismail will be high on confidence after finishing with figures of 4/16 in four overs in the last game. Her spell with the new ball and then in the backend will be important. Last year, the right-arm seamer bagged seven wickets from five games at an average of 15.14. She will look to continue her good form on Saturday.
