JAM vs GUY Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: CPL 2022 Match 4 | JAM vs GUY Dream11 Prediction | St Kitts Pitch Report
Will this be the year Guyana Amazon Warriors finally go all the way? They have been the league’s nearly men over nine years, qualifying for the playoffs every season and finishing runners up an incredible five times.
CPL 2022 represents a new era of sorts. Shimron Hetmyer is the captain, and if leadership can bring out the best in him, Guyana could be in for a solid campaign. If the top order can set a platform, there are some wonderful hitters down the order that can capitalise at the death.
However, Guyana’s pace bowling stocks will certainly be tested by a confident Jamaica Tallawahs outfit. Life after Andre Russell started perfectly with victory over defending champions St Kitts, with Brandon King making a strong statement early in CPL 2022. Also, the bowling was efficient, limiting a strong St Kitts team to just 136.
JAM vs GUY Possible Playing XI
Jamaica could stick with the same XI that got the job done in their opening match.
Jamaica Tallawahs: 1. Brandon King, 2. Kennar Lewis, 3. Shamarh Brooks, 4. Amir Jangoo (wk), 5. Rovman Powell (c), 6. Fabian Allen, 7. Imad Wasim, 8. Chris Green, 9. Mohammad Amir, 10. Migael Pretorius, 11. Nicholson Gordon
Shimron Hetmyer will lead Guyana. Paul Stirling and Tabraiz Shamsi are currently at The Hundred.
Guyana Amazon Warriors: 1. Chandrapaul Hemraj, 2. Shai Hope (wk), 3. Colin Ingram, 4. Shimron Hetmyer (c), 5. Heinrich Klaasen, 6. Odean Smith, 7. Romario Shepherd, 8. Keemo Paul, 9. Gudakesh Motie, 10. Veerasammy Permaul/Ronsford Beaton, 11. Imran Tahir
