Antigua and Barbuda Falcons (ABF) lock horns with Saint Lucia Kings (SLK) in match 6 of the ongoing Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2024 at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, in Antigua.
The Falcons are winless so far in the tournament after playing three matches. All of these losses have come in front of their home fans in Antigua. The debutants would be desperate to register their first win in the tournament and get off the foot of the table.
Meanwhile, Saint Lucia Kings got their CPL 2024 campaign off to a memorable start after losing in the Eliminator last year. At Warner Park, Basseterre, St Kitts, Faf du Plessis and Co. got the better of St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in a high-scoring clash. They chased down a 202-run target with five wickets and 16 balls to spare after Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Tim Seifert smashed exhilarating half-centuries.

Pitch Report
Three games have been played so far at this venue in CPL 2024 and the average first innings score is around 159. Chasing teams have emerged victorious in all the matches. The captain who wins the toss would want to chase first. The powerplay overs are going to be crucial as teams would want to get as many runs as possible while the ball is new and hard.
ABF vs SLK Probable Playing XI
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons:
Kofi James, Fakhar Zaman, Sam Billings (wk), Jewel Andrew, Imad Wasim, Shamar Springer, Fabian Allen, Chris Green (c), Roshon Primus, Mohammad Amir, Hayden Walsh.
Saint Lucia Kings:
Johnson Charles, Faf du Plessis (c), Ackeem Auguste, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Roston Chase, Tim Seifert (wk), David Wiese, Mikkel Govia, Alzarri Joseph, Matthew Forde, Noor Ahmad.
Probable Best Performers of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Bhanuka Rajapaksa
Kings’ Bhanuka Rajapaksa had an excellent start to his CPL 2024 campaign as he smashed an unbeaten 68 off 35 balls, belting six fours and four sixes against the Patriots. He is a destructive batter, who can change the course of the game in quick time. If he gets going on Wednesday, Chris Green and his bowlers will have their tasks cut out.
Probable Best Bowler: Alzarri Joseph
Alzarri Joseph is undoubtedly the spearhead of the Kings’ bowling attack. He had a forgettable outing in the first game against the Patriots as he conceded 44 runs in four overs on a batting paradise at Warner Park and also went wicketless. However, the conditions at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium will be better for bowling and Joseph could be a major threat for the opposition side with his pace and bounce.
