TKR vs JAM Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's CPL 2020 Match - Sept 8th, 2020

After thirty gruelling league fixtures, it's time for the semi-finals in the Caribbean Premier League as the Trinbago Knight Riders take on the Jamaica Tallawahs at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium.

The Knight Riders swept the entire league with ten wins in ten games. Led by the experienced Kieron Pollard, the Knight Riders have never looked in trouble and walk into this game as the clear favourites.

However, they come across Andre Russell and the Jamaica Tallawahs, which might be the only team that can stand up to the Knight Riders in terms of personnel. Blessed with spin twins Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Sandeep Lamichhane, the Tallawahs have done well with the ball although their batting has often deserted them.

Nevertheless, the Tallawahs will fancy their chances of a win on Tuesday despite the daunting task of having to overcome the TKR spin threat ahead of them.

Despite the glaring difference in form, it should be a cracking encounter in Trinidad with a place in the final hanging in the balance.

Pitch Report

Although a fresh pitch is expected for the semi-finals, spinners should continue to dominate proceedings in the middle overs. While the pacers should ideally get some swing early on, they will look to take pace off the ball to get the most out of this surface.

The batsmen will have to bide their time in the middle, with wickets in hand and running between the wickets being crucial. With the pitch not expected to change much during the game, both sides will look to bat first and look to put up at least 150 in this high-octane encounter.
