TEAM NEWS
St . Kitts and Nevis Patriots has lost all their two fixtures of this tournament. The Faf Du Plessis’s led side has lost their first match against the Guyana Amazon Warrior on June 29 and recently lost their second match against the Jamaica Tall has.
This team has enough firepower in their squad in the form of Brad Hodge, Faf Du Plessis, Carlos Braithwaite and Thisara Perera.
And none of the players mentioned above has fired yet to their potential. Neither their Batting nor their bowling has come out to live up the expectation.
This team needs to regroup and Captain needs to fire at the top of the order. Also, team Managemen need to promote the likes of Brad Hodge to bat in the top 4 , if they want to succeed in their next match against the St. Lucia Zouks.

Darren Sammy is the captain of this team and he himself is one of the genuine match winners along with the Watson, David Miller, and Michael Hussey.
