As the Guyana Amazon Warriors won their previous match with ease, expect them to field the same squad for this match.

Batting

Key Players - Chandrapaul Hemraj, Shimron Hetmyer and Brandon King

The batting unit of the Warriors has played a crucial role in the team's unbeaten streak. All the batsmen have contributed their bit to the team's cause and the young Caribbean talent has blended well with the international names.

Bowling

Key Players - Chris Green, Imran Tahir and Shoaib Malik

As mentioned ahead, the conditions in Guyana will favour the spinners and hence, the Warriors will expect the spinners to trouble the opposition batsmen. The team's captain Shoaib Malik would look to bowl at least 2-3 overs in the match and break a few partnerships.

Expected playing XI

Chandrapaul Hemraj, Brandon King, Shimron Hetmyer, Shoaib Malik (C), Nicholas Pooran (WK), Sherfane Rutherford, Chris Green, Keemo Paul, Romario Shepherd, Imran Tahir and Ben Laughlin.

The Jamaican-based franchise has a chance of ending their season on a high by ending Guyana's unbeaten streak. They may name their best eleven players of the squad to take the field against the Warriors.

Batting

Key Players - Dwayne Smith, Chris Gayle and Glenn Phillips

The highest run-scorer of CPL 2019 Glenn Phillips would hope that the big names of his side support him in the batting department. Chris Gayle and Dwayne Smith need to bring their 'A' game to the table in the final match of their season.

Bowling

Key Players - Imran Khan, Zahir Khan and Ramaal Lewis

The bowling attack of the Jamaican franchise has been a letdown for them this season. However, the trio of Imran, Zahir and Lewis will try to pull off their best performance of the season in the last game.

Expected Playing XI

Chris Gayle, Glenn Phillips (WK), Dwayne Smith, Liton Das, Chadwick Walton (C), Trevor Griffith, Ramaal Lewis, Imran Khan, Shamar Springer, Zahir Khan, Jerome Taylor.
