Pitch Report:
Arnos Vale, Ground
Wicket should help batsmen and pacers more. Pace bowlers are getting some movement in the initial overs. You can expect scores in the vicinity of 100 if batsmen play well however both teams have only 1-2 good batsmen.
SPB Team Preview:
They are a good team but in this season their batting is looking very weak. They have won the first edition and were the runner-ups of the last edition. They have 2 match-winners in the form of S Ambris and D Johnson. Their bowling is very strong but their batting is looking very weak as they have only 1 well-known batsman in the form of S Ambris and their team will surely suffer if somehow Ambris gets out early.
Probable11 of the team in the expected batting order(Their batting order is not confirmed):
Sunil Ambris(RHB+ Spin):
R Walker(RHB):
Oziko Williams(RHB, Hard-hitting batsman):
A Thomas(LHB):
D Johnson(LHB+LAM):
T Pope(LHB+RAM):
S Sween(RHB, even he can open also):
S Hooper/D Hoyte(RAM):
J Layne(RHB+RAM, Highest wicket-taker of the last season):
J Haywood(RAO):
J Samuels:
Most probably J Layne, J Haywood, Sunil Ambris, and D Johnson will bowl full overs while J Samuel/T Pope will bowl the remaining 2 overs.
