CPL 2021: JAM vs SKN Preview

By Parameswaran Sankaranarayanan September 1, 2021

Jamaica Tallawahs (JAM) will face a stern against league leaders St Kitts & Nevis Patriots (SKN) in match 12 of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2021. With two wins in three games, Jamaica Tallawahs are second in the table, while St Kitts & Nevis Patriots remain the only side to maintain a perfect record in the tournament.

A fantastic knock from Kennar Lewis and a valuable contribution from Shamarh Brooks saw Jamaica Tallawahs grab a six-wicket win over Barbados Royals in their last game. Lewis scored a career-high 89, while Brooks hit a 26-ball 47*. South Africa pacer Migael Pretorius took his second four-wicket haul in the tournament.

Sherfane Rutherford struck an unbeaten half-century – 58* off 34 balls – to seal a third consecutive win for St Kitts & Nevis Patriots in CPL 2021. Chasing a challenging total, openers Devon Thomas and Evin Lewis gave a bright start. Rutherford and Dwayne Bravo stitched together 72 off 46 balls for the fourth wicket. With 17 needed off eight balls, the left-handed batsman hit consecutive sixes off Naveen-ul-Haq Murid.
