With the West Indian domestic circuit in full flow, we get ready to move onto the 50 over format of the game after the culmination of the Caribbean Premier League. The Super50 Cup makes an advent into the country starting today with the one month long soiree set to engage the rapturous cricket loving supporters in the country in an enterprising and enigmatic brand of cricket.
Split into two groups of A and B, the group stage matches are a lengthy and tedious affair which will see the 20 sides partaking in the marquee tournamnet be split up into two segments of 10 apiece. Each side will play their counterparts twice in the group, taking the group stage matches to 40 with the top two sides from each group proceeding to battle it out in the semi-finals.
And we couldn’t have asked for a more befitting clash to light up the league than today’s encounter between last edition’s champions Combined Campuses and Colleges and Leeward Islands. After winning the title for the first time in their stay in the marquee tournamnet, Combined Campuses and Colleges know it won’t be easy to embark on the same glistening run of form this time around as well with the side depleted after managing to keep just four players intact.
However, the side will be looking to dismiss the preconceived notions of this being a tricky season for them and exult an elating display today against a Leeward Islands side which has always found it difficult to impress in the tournamnet in their Group A encounter today.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
We should have a good wicket in play for this encounter with the ball coming onto the bat nicely, allowing the team batting first to open their arms with ease and find the fence on ample occasions. The wicket does tend to regress come the chasing part though, something which will edge the side winning the toss towards batting first.

With scores in excess of 40 in nine matches in domestic cricket across the course of 2019, Leeward Islands’ Devon Thomas is being brought into our side for this match as the wicket-keeping option.

With 206 runs for his side in the bygone edition of the tournamnet, Kyle Corbin comes into our side from Combined Colleges and Campuses with Jonathan Drakes giving him company for this one. The player played the perfect role at the other end for Drakes, scoring 165 runs in 6 matches as he opened his arms with ease to pile on the runs for his side, make thin duo a must have one for today’s clash.
From the opposition meanwhile we have gone in with both of their openers given the expansive and fiery brand of strokeplay they posses in their artillery. Kieran Powell and Montcin Hodge are two players who can come out and utilise the powerplay overs to the full extend, making their ability to find the fence and cream the ball in the sweet spot one to revel in them for today.
CCC Vs LEI Dream11 All-Rounders
An escalated batting role handed over to him by his side was fully justified by Rakheem Cornwall with the all-rounder top scoring for his side in the previous edition. He marauded his way to resounding 238 runs along with engulfing the opposition in a tiff with his restrictive brand of bowling to snare the 14 wickets to make the player one to nail down in our side for this one.

CCC Vs LEI Dream11 Bowling Order
His side’s leading wicket taker in their trophy winning season, Akeem Jordan ended up adding 16 wickets in his account to lead the side’s mantle when it came to their bowling efforts. The stoutheaded spearhead was a pivotal figure in the bowling unit for the side, a name who grew in reverence given the deviation he got on the ball by pitching it into the right channels.
Larry Joseph will be his partner for this one along with Ojay Shields while from the opposition we are opting for the one bowler in the form of the daunting and feisty Jason Campbell who’ll be handed over the new ball duties by his side.
