The pitch at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium usually favors batters. The ball will come on at a nice height for the batters to hit through the line. Spin bowlers will get some help when the ball becomes a little soft. Seamers, meanwhile, will have to rely on cutters and slower ones.
The weather forecast shows that St Lucia will experience mostly cloudy weather tomorrow, with chances of a thundershower in the evening. This might disrupt the game for a while.

The last game at Gros Islet, St Lucia was a high scoring game, where the total match score was 376 runs. Barring one low scoring game the average total match score in the last three matches played at this venue is 355 runs. We predict another high scoring game and the total match score to be over 349.5 runs.
Both matches played at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in this year’s L have been won by the chasing side. Seeing this trend, the team winning the toss in this game is likely to field first.
Saint Lucia Kings have triumphed in three out of their last four finished games against the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, including a victory earlier this season. Both teams are coming off defeats, but the Patriots are on a losing spree and seem to have lost all confidence. Saint Lucia Kings’ batting is stronger, although their bowling unit does lack the punch. If the Patriots can bat sensibly, they will have a chance to get their second win of the season. Otherwise, Saint Lucia Kings will dominate this contest too.
We are backing Saint Lucia Kings as the winners of this match.
