GUY vs JAM Dream11 : Top of the table meets bottom of the table in a lopsided CPL 7 clash today
Advertisement
Jamaica Tallawahs will be left ruing that it took them a full five matches to snap out of a horrid run of form and register their first win in Caribbean Premier League 7. With four successive defeats in the league, the side’s first win in their previous clash did nothing to help their aspirations of rising in the league standings with the side still firmly nailed down in the last place.
Contesting a low scoring encounter against Barbados Tridents, the side ended up prevailing by 4 wickets as they knocked down the 141 run target infront of them with 9 wickets to spare. It helped infuse some kind of life into an otherwise languishing campaign for them, giving them some kind of confidence ahead of today’s enormous clash.
With the side preparing to get underway with their contest against table toppers Guyana Amazon Warriors, Jamaica Tallawahs will be well aware that they face their toughest test in the league till date. They are coming across a side who are unscathed in the league, the only side to manage this achievement till now, sitting in first position with four wins from four matches.
The previous match saw them make a mockery of St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, a match where they needed all of 15.5 overs to peel down the 122 run target infront of them with 7 wickets to spare. It was a pristine performance by them, a fine show with both the bat and ball as they intertwined their capabilities in unison yet again to seal a comprehensive result in their favour.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
The likelihood of rain lashing the ground is a very real one for today’s encounter which could see us be in for a shortened clash. Overall though, even if it does rain, it shouldn’t spoil what has been a pristine wicket for batting with the ball coming onto the bat nicely, allowing the batsmen to hit it in the sweet spot.
The side winning the toss would be opting to chase on this surface.

GUY vs JAM Match Prediction
A major reason for Jamaica Tallawahs being caught in such a qualm has been their paper thin bowling unit, one which has failed to inspire. And with them having the least of leeway in today’s encounter, we don’t see them putting on enough of a challenge infront of a formidable Guyana Amazon Warriors’ outfit, one which has been unsparing in its approach when batting in the middle.
Guyana should maraud their way to a massive score and win this clash with ease.

GUY vs JAM Dream11 Wicket-Keeper
We have both the wicket-keepers being opted by us for today’s clash with both of them coming into the match bearing colossal statures. Althouhg Nicholas Pooran has yet to really get going for Guyana, his immense skill set is well known and up against a sorry bowling unit today, he should manage to make a mockery of the opposition.
Elsewhere from the opposition we have selected Glenn Phillips who has been his side’s persistent and consistent bats till now. The opener has kept piling on the runs for his side, irrespective of assistance from the other end to emerge as not only his side’s leading scorer but one of the best in the league as well.
GUY vs JAM Dream11 Batsmen
We follow his pick with the second opener from Jamaica Tallawahs, getting in Chris Gayle along with Chadwick Walton who cantered his way to an impeccable 51 in 42 balls the last time around, a knock which set the foundation for his side to rake up their first win in the league.
We are also opting for George Worker from the side after he was given two overs with the ball as well in the previous encounter, a spell that saw him snare two wickets. From Guyana Amazon Warriors meanwhile we have picked out a duo in the form of Brandon King who took the bowlers to the cleaners in the last match with 49 in 24 balls and Chandrapaul Hemraj.
GUY vs JAM Dream11 All-Rounders
With their being a spate of injuries in this segment, there remained only the one viable option for us to select in this segment. Guyana’s Keemo Paul has been in solid touch with the ball for his side, taking over the new ball and death over responsibilities perfectly to add two wickets to his kitty in the last match.
GUY vs JAM Dream11 Bowling Order
We have kept thing pretty straightforward for today’s match, selecting names who’ll be having an impact in the moment when its most likely to pick up wickets.

Ramaal Lewis from the opposing end brings an end to our side for today’s Dream 11 clash.
