GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – Last year’s losing finalists, Guyana Amazon Warriors, could prove the spoilers for Trinidad and Tobago Red Steel, when the two teams clash in the final game of the Caribbean Premier League group phase here tomorrow.
Red Steel are on a three-game winning streak and victory at the National Stadium at Providence will carry the top of the standings on 13 points, and earn them an automatic berth in the final.
Currently, reigning champions Barbados Tridents top the standings with 12 points and are on the brink of securing their spot in the championship game scheduled for Queen’s Park Oval next Sunday.
A Red Steel win, however, will dislodge the Tridents, leaving them to fight it out with Jamaica Tallawahs and Amazon Warriors for a place in the final.
Should Amazon Warriors beat Red Steel, they will join them on 11 points and could finish second or remain third, depending on net run rate.
More importantly, an Amazon Warriors victory will keep Tridents top. The game bowls off at 6 pm tomorrow.
Tallawahs are fourth on nine points and round out the top four, while St Lucia Zouks, also on nine points, and St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, eight points, have been eliminated.
The semi-finals are scheduled to played Thursday and Saturday, also at Queen’s Park Oval.
