The high-octane action will continue in the Caribbean Premier League 2023 as Saint Lucia Kings take on Guyana Amazon Warriors in Match 4 on Sunday, August 20 at Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia.
After being thrashed by Jamaica Talhawas in the tournament opener, Saint Lucia Kings came back quickly in the second match of the tournament and defeated Barbados Royals quite comfortably with a big margin of 54 runs. They will look to build on the momentum for the rest of the tournament with a consecutive victory in the 4th match of the tournament.
On the other hand, Guyana Amazon Warriors, the defending champions will be playing their first match of the tournament and will look to start the tournament on a positive note. On paper, GAW look quite the favourite for the match but their players will have to play good cricket to win against a team which is coming after defeating Barbados Royals quite comfortably in the last match.

Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at the venue has been high scoring historically and the batters will enjoy their time in the middle. Batting first, a total above 190 could prove to be good enough. The captain winning the toss will look to set the target and put the scoreboard pressure on the opposition with a daunting total on the board.

Probable Top Performers
Probable Best Batter of the Match:
Shai Hope – Guyana Amazon Warriors
Shai Hope had a decent outing against India in the recently concluded ODI and T20 series. He scored 45 and 22 Not Out in the last two T20I matches and was timing the ball perfectly. He will look to win the team’s first match in the tournament with his good batting form.
Probable Best Bowler of the Match
Alzari Joseph – Saint Lucia Kings
Quick bowler, Alzari Joseph also looked decent in the recently concluded series against India as he took four wickets with a decent economy rate. A few months back, he had a five-for against South Africa. Joseph will look to rattle the opposition upfront with his pace and bounce.
