GAW vs BR Winner Prediction and Betting Tips

This CPL 2024 clash between Guyana Amazon Warriors [GAW] and Barbados Royals [BR] is shaping up to be a highly competitive match. GAW comes into this fixture with a more balanced in-form team than BR, who have struggled with consistency throughout the season.

Ireland vs South Africa 2024 UAE Series Prediction

Ireland vs South Africa 2024 UAE Series Prediction

Ireland and South Africa will feature in the 2 T20Is and 3 ODIs, starting September 27th in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi will host the entire IRE vs SA ODI and T20I. The forthcoming series goes down in history as both countries feature in bilaterals for the first time in a neutral country.

The IRE vs SA T20I series kicks off on September 27th and finishes on September 29th while the IRE vs SA ODI series are scheduled on October 2nd, 4th, and 7th.

Ireland, the host for the series dealing with the crisis, high costs with temporary infrastructure and without a permanent home venue have led them to shift the entire series to UAE, the country that provides high-quality facilities to stage the International fixtures. They even played the Only Test against Afghanistan at the Tolerance Oval earlier this year which they won by 6 wickets. 

This will be their first white-ball assignment following a dreadful campaign in the T20 World Cup in the Americas a few months back where they bowled out without a win. 

South Africa on the contrary are already in UAE and took part in the 3-match ODI series against Afghanistan but that didn’t go well as they lost the series 2-1. They have announced different squads for each format with Aiden Markram leading the side in the T20Is, while diminutive batter Temba Bavuma will captain the team in ODIs.  

Our cricket betting app provides complete details of the IRE vs SA series. 

Ireland and South Africa in UAE, Schedule

Here we can see the entire schedule of IRE vs SA in UAE.

1st T20I – September 27th at 9 PM IST, Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi

2nd T20I – September 29th at 9 PM IST, Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi

1st ODI – October 2nd at 5 PM IST, Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi

Ireland vs South Africa Team Analysis

Ireland Team Preview:

Recent form: Lost, NR, Lost, Lost, Won

T20I Squad: Paul Stirling (c), Mark Adair, Ross Adair, Curtis Campher, Gareth Delany, George Dockrell, Fionn Hand, Matthew Humphreys, Graham Hume, Neil Rock (wk), Harry Tector, Lorcan Tucker (wk), Ben White, Craig Young. 

With outcomes not going their way lately in the shortest format, selectors have made a tough decision in picking the T20I squad against South Africa. Ireland had a horrendous T20 World Cup 2024 where they failed to win a game. National selector, Andrew White emphasized bringing the dynamic approach to their top order hence not considering Andrew Balbirnie for the T20Is. At the same time, he remains very much in the scheme of things for the ODIs. 

They made few changes on their return to T20Is with Josh Little missing out due to his CPL commitments for Trinbago Knight Riders. At the same time, fellow pacer Barry McCarthy who is recovering from injury hasn’t been considered for selection. Fionn Hand and Matthew Humphreys have been named replacements while the rest of the squad featured in the T20 World Cup have been retained. 

ODI Squad: Paul Stirling (c), Mark Adair, Andrew Balbirnie, Curtis Campher, George Dockrell, Stephen Doheny, Gavin Hoey, Fionn Hand, Graham Hume, Matthew Humphreys, Andy McBrine, Neil Rock (wk), Harry Tector, Lorcan Tucker (wk), Craig Young.

Recent form: Lost, NR, Lost, Won, Won

It’s been a while since Ireland took part in the ODIs, they last played against Afghanistan in March earlier this year where they lost 2-0. They even underwent a significant overhaul for the ODIs against South Africa with no place for Gareth Delany, Theo van Woerkom, and Matthew Foster. 

Stephen Doheny, Graham Hume, Fionn Hand, and Matthew Humphreys are all back in the ODI setup with Gavin Hoey, the only uncapped player in the mix. Experienced batter Paul Stirling will captain the side in both T20Is and ODIs.

South Africa Team Preview:

T20I Squad – Aiden Markram (c), Ottniel Baartman, Matthew Breetzke, Nandre Burger, Bjorn Fortuin, Reeza Hendricks, Patrick Kruger, Wiaan Mulder, Lungi Ngidi, Nqaba Peter, Ryan Rickelton, Andile Simelane, Jason Smith, Tristan Stubbs, Lizaad Williams.

Recent form: Lost, Lost, Lost, Lost, Won

Runners-up in the T20 World Cup 2024, South Africa lost the subsequent T20I series against West Indies 3-0 last month. The selectors have again decided to field an experienced side with regulars Quinton de Kock, Heinrich Klaasen, Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, David Miller, Anrich Nortje and Tabraiz Shamsi all being rested. 

Matthew Breetzke who last featured in a T20I in May against West Indies is back in the side. Nqaba Peter and uncapped Andile Simelane have been included in the 15-member squad, while Donovan Ferreira and Kwena Maphaka have been dropped. 

With most of their frontline players well above the age of 30, now, it’s the best opportunity to build the team for the future with an inexperienced squad. 

Reeza Hendricks, Ryan Rickelton, Aiden Markram, and Tristan Stubbs are their key batters and the rest will revolve around Wiaan Mulder, Patrick Kruger, and Matthew Breetzke. Lungi Ngidi will spearhead the bowling attack in the absence of regular quicks Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje. 

ODI Squad – Temba Bavuma (c), Ottneil Baartman, Nandre Burger, Tony de Zorzi, Bjorn Fortuin, Wiaan Mulder, Lungi Ngidi, Andile Phehlukwayo, Nqaba Peter, Ryan Rickelton, Jason Smith, Tristan Stubbs, Rassie van der Dussen, Kyle Verreynne, and Lizaad Williams.

Recent form: Won, Lost, Lost, Lost, Won

It’s a tough one to digest for the Proteas who lost the ODI series against Afghanistan 2-1. They somehow avoided the whitewash with a consolation 7 wickets win in the 3rd ODI. Their batters failed to deliver in the 1st and 2nd ODIs where they bundled out for just 106 and 134 respectively. The loss exposed their vulnerability against the spin where they lost 9 wickets for just 49 runs from a commanding position of 85 for 1 in the 2nd ODI. 

Reeza Hendricks and Aiden Markram have been rested while Ryan Rickelton and Rassie van der Dussen come into the squad for the ODIs against Ireland. 

Ireland vs South Africa Top Picks

Tristan Stubbs

Tristan Stubbs is the new star in the making for South Africa who has all the attributes to become the finisher for the team. He plays the spin better than anyone in the side and his ability to deal with the pressure sets him apart from the rest. The 24-year-old was the top performer for the Proteas in their disappointing 3-0 loss in the T20Is against West Indies last month, making 144 runs in 3 matches at a strike rate of 177.77 with the top score of 76. He is going to play a key role for South Africa in the IRE vs SA series. 

Lorcan Tucker 

Lorcan Tucker is the second leading run-scorer for Ireland in T20Is this year with 263 runs in 12 matches, only after Andy Balbirnie (298 runs). He even holds the same position for Ireland in the ODIs, scoring 88 runs in 2 matches with the top score of 85. He is all set to make a big impact in the IRE vs SA series. 

Ireland vs South Africa Winner Prediction

When it comes to T20Is, it’s anybody’s game and we at our online cricket betting app predict a 1-1 stalemate in the 2-matches T20I series. 

South Africa is comparatively well sorted in all areas in the ODIs and we predict them to come out well 2-1 in the 3-matches series. 

South Africa is looking for a change and is fielding different sets of squads for both T20Is and ODIs and therefore it’s an advantage for Ireland to make the best use of it. Sign Up now on our Cricket Betting App – GUGOBET. Get the best Cricket Exchange facilities and a 100% Welcome Bonus.

India vs Bangladesh Team Analysis

India Team Preview in Bangladesh Tour of India 2024:

Recent Form: Won, Won, Won, Won, Lost

Team India is back in action after a gap of over a month. They last featured in the away ODIs against Sri Lanka, losing the 3-match series 2-0 last month. It was the first of many series for the new coaching staff led by head coach Gautam Gambhir. The newest inclusion for the setup is Morne Morkel who will be starting his stint as bowling coach with the Test series against Bangladesh. Being a fast bowler, the South African holds the responsibility of moulding talented Indian pacers. 

India, the current leaders in the World Test Championship standings (2023-25) are set to play their first Test following their 4-1 triumph over England earlier this year. India had several injury concerns and players unavailability, which meant they handed Test caps for Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, Akash Deep, and Devdutt Padikkal. Prolific batter Virat Kohli missed the entire series due to personal commitments while KL Rahul was ruled out after the 1st Test due to injury. 

Skipper Rohit Sharma managed the young squad and got the best out of their talents. Yashasvi Jaiswal finished the series on a high note, amassing 712 runs at an average of 89. Sarfaraz Khan made a name for himself, scoring 200 runs in 5 innings. Ravichandran Ashwin who was one of the four players to play all five Tests, emerged as the leading wicket-taker with 26 scalps. 

The selection panel led by Ajit Agarkar has picked a solid 16-member squad for the forthcoming series against Bangladesh. Rohit Sharma will continue as the skipper while the likes of Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and KL Rahul are back in the team. Following their notable performances against England, Dhruv Jurel, Sarfaraz Khan, and Akash Deep have all been retained for the Test series against Bangladesh. The selectors were hugely impressed with the work of left-arm seamer Yash Dayal and hence rewarded him with a maiden national call-up. 

Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal will open the innings, followed by Shubman Gill at No.3. Virat Kohli is back to his usual No.4 position followed by KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant and all-rounders. Jasprit Bumrah will lead the attack and he will be accompanied by Mohammed Siraj in the starting eleven. The evergreen duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will pair up again. There will be a toss-up between Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav for the 3rd spinner role. 

The return of Rishabh Pant to the longest format is the talk of the town as the 26-year-old will play his 1st Test since December 2022. 

Bangladesh Team Preview in Bangladesh Tour of India 2024:

Recent form: Won, Won, Lost, Lost, Lost

Squad:

Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Hasan Mahmud, Jaker Ali, Khaled Ahmed, Litton Das (wk), Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Nahid Rana, Nayeem Hasan, Shadman Islam, Shakib Al Hasan, Taijul Islam, Taskin Ahmed, Zakir Hasan. 

Bangladesh are high on confidence following their historic Test series win over Pakistan 2-0 last month. Najmul Hossain Shanto and his men made the impossible possible to write the new script, marking their first-ever Test series win over Pakistan. Credit to the entire team for holding their nerves at a crucial juncture shows their determination and hunger to win. It seemed the 1st Test could easily be ended as a draw, but their bowlers turned the game entirely on the fifth day, bowling Pakistan out for 146 and easily chasing down the target of 30. 

When things seemed uphill in the 2nd Test after losing 6 wickets for 26 runs, Low-order batting came to the team’s rescue, guiding them to a score of 262. The combination of Hasan Mahmud and Nahid Rana created wonders as the duo picked up 9 wickets between them in the 2nd innings. Later the batters ensured a comprehensive 6 wickets victory while chasing 185. All-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz was adjudged the Player of the Match for his monumental performances (155 runs and 10 wickets). 

Injured left arm seamer Shoriful Islam has been ruled out of the two Tests against India due to injury, which he sustained in the 1st Test against Pakistan. He will be replaced by wicket-keeper batter Jaker Ali which is the only change from the 16-man squad that toured Pakistan. Indian conditions aren’t ideal for pace, hence they picked a batter over the seamer. Najmul Hossain Shanto will continue to lead the side. Seniors Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mehidy Hasan Miraz are all part of the troop. They have never beaten India in the longest format, losing 7 out of their previous 8 meetings and it’s now the best time to write history.

India vs Bangladesh 2024 Top Picks

Yashasvi Jaiswal

Yashasvi Jaiswal had an outstanding Test series against England earlier this year, smashing 712 runs in 5 matches at an average of 89 which included 2 centuries and 3 half-centuries. He is hopeful of continuing the same in the IND vs BAN Test series. 

Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Mehidy Hasan Miraz is a magician who knows how to save the matches for Bangladesh. He was named the Player of the series in 2 Tests against Pakistan where he made 155 runs and picked up 10 wickets. He is the man to watch out for IND vs BAN Test series. 

India vs Bangladesh Tests Winner Prediction

India has won 17 bilateral Test series at home since 2012, the most by a team in the modern-day era. Out of the 51 Test matches played at home between 2013-2024, they have lost only 4 which is an incredible achievement. Going with their exceptional home record, they are likely to win the Test series against Bangladesh 2-0. 

India possesses an extraordinary talent pool and they can’t take Bangladesh lightly who recently beat Pakistan in their backyard 2-0. Going with the experience, and squad strength we still go with India to win the Test series 2-0.

England vs Australia Team Analysis

Both teams have locked in their squad for the ENG vs AUS T20Is 2024, and we at GUGOBET cricket betting app will analyze the entire series.  

England Team Preview

Recent form: Lost, Won, Lost, Won, Won

Squad – Phil Salt (c & wk), Jofra Archer, Jacob Bethell, Brydon Carse, Jordan Cox, Sam Curran, Josh Hull, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Saqib Mahmood, Dan Mousley, Adil Rashid, Reece Topley, John Turner, Jamie Overton.

Three Lions are looking for a new change in the shortest format and want to transition after a disappointing exit in the Semi-Finals of the T20 World Cup 2024. The 15-member squad has the right blend of experience and the fire of youth. 

Since there is no gap between the Sri Lanka Test series and T20Is, England has to field a different squad for the ENG vs AUS T20Is that starts on 11th September. With Jos Buttler injured, wicket-keeper batter Phil Salt has been handed the responsibilities to lead the side that includes a few fresh faces Jacob Bethell, Dan Mousley, and John Turner. 

The 20-year-old left-arm seamer, Josh Hull who made his Test debut in the 3rd Test against Sri Lanka is also part of the squad but his availability for the series opener is doubtful. Jamie Overton replaces Jos Buttler in the T20I squad and will play as a specialist batter as he is currently recovering from a back stress fracture. 

It’s the comeback series for seamers Brydon Carse and Saqib Mahmood who haven’t featured in any International fixture for more than a year. Prolific batter Jordan Cox who was in England’s Test squad against Sri Lanka has got a call-up for ENG vs AUS T20Is and also serves as a back-up for the ODIs. 

Regulars Phil Salt, Jofra Archer, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Adil Rashid, and Reece Topley who took part in the T20 World Cup in the Caribbean a few months back, keep their places for the forthcoming ENG vs AUS T20Is. After the departure of Matthew Mott, Marcus Trescothick will serve as the interim Head Coach for the series. 

Australia Team Preview

Recent form: Won, Won, Won, Lost, Lost

Squad – Mitchell Marsh (c), Sean Abbott, Xavier Bartlett, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Jake Fraser McGurk, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh Inglis (wk), Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa, Riley Meredith.

Australia has retained the same squad that featured in the 3-match T20I series against Scotland that concluded on Sunday. Mitchell Marsh led the side on their first visit to the country, cleanly sweeping the series 3-0. Young guns Jake Fraser McGurk and Cooper Connolly made their debuts. Josh Inglis was the bright spot in the series, scoring 130 runs in 2 innings, including his 2nd T20I century. 

All-rounders Cameron Green ( 98 runs and 6 wickets) and Marcus Stoinis ( 5 wickets and 28 runs) made significant contributions to the success. Travis Head shattered the records during his 25-ball 80 run-knock in the 1st T20I, as he became the joint fastest to score a half-century for Australia in 17 balls and also scored 73 runs, the highest by a batter in the powerplay. 

Skipper Mitchell Marsh had a decent series with the bat, scoring 39 and 31 in the 2 innings he batted. With minimal opportunities, Tim David made the most of the closing stages, scoring 42 runs in 2 innings at an astonishing strike rate of 200. Not the way, it went for young dashing batter, Jake Fraser McGurk who had a quiet start to his T20I career as he managed 16 runs in 3 innings, including two ducks. 

Coming to their bowling unit, they performed well in the tough conditions and showed their character. Sean Abbott who came in as replacement for Spencer Johnson, finished as the joint-leading wicket-taker with 6 scalps. Adam Zampa and Xavier Bartlett kept it simple to pick 7 wickets between them. 

Riley Meredith will stay with the squad as a replacement for Nathan Ellis who has been ruled out of the ENG vs AUS T20I series while Josh Hazlewood who missed the Scotland trip is back in the squad. 

The whole squad looks balanced in all aspects and is going to extend their brutal form in the forthcoming ENG vs AUS T20 series.

ENG vs AUS T20Is 2024: Winner Prediction

The forthcoming England vs Australia T20i series is bound to be exciting. We are backing Australia to win the series 2-1. Even though England has the home advantage, Australia looks the stronger of the two teams.

ENG vs AUS T20Is 2024: Players to Watch out for 

Travis Head

Travis Head is all set to conquer England, the place he badly needs to perform big. He destroyed Scotland in the recent series with a 25-ball 80 in the 1st T20I and followed it up with low scores of 0 and 12. He is an aggressive batter in the powerplay and can take on any attack in the world. We at GUGOBET predict him to do well in the ENG vs AUS T20s. 

Phil Salt

Phil Salt has leveled up his performances over the years and now has the opportunity to lead England for the first time in the upcoming T20I series against Australia. He was England’s second leading run-scorer (188 runs) after Jos Buttler (214 runs) in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. It’s interesting to see how well he performs with the captaincy tag.

Conclusion

England looks inexperienced with plenty of fresh faces and a few big names missing whereas Australia, despite the absence of star players, looks formidable on paper, hence in our cricket betting app we predict Australia to win the series 2-1.

CPL Match Prediction 2024: SLK vs TKR

SLK vs TKR Prediction & Betting Tips

St Lucia Kings will take on Trinbago Knight Riders in the 12th match of the Caribbean Premier League 2024. After successful away wins over St Kitts & Nevis Patriots and Antigua & Barbuda Falcons, St Lucia Kings, who entered their home turf for their third CPL 2024 fixture, got beaten badly by Guyana Amazon Warriors by 6 wickets with 10 overs to spare. 

The four-time champions, Trinbago Knight Riders on the other hand, got mixed results at the start of the CPL 2024. Their campaign took off in a grand style with a 44-run victory over St Kitts & Nevis Patriots and five days later, they lost to newcomers Antigua & Barbuda Falcons by 6 runs where they failed to chase 176. 

Check SLK vs TKR Prediction now on GUGOBET cricket betting app.

St Lucia Kings vs Trinbago Knight Riders Match Analysis

St Lucia Team Preview

Probable Playing XI – Faf du Plessis (c), Johnson Charles, Ackeem Auguste, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Roston Chase, Tim Seifert (wk), David Wiese, Matthew Forde, Alzarri Joseph, Noor Ahmad, Khary Pierre.

St Lucia Kings, who possess a packed team, won comfortably over Nevis Patriots and Barbuda Falcons by 5 wickets and 7 wickets, respectively. Credit to their batters for making the run chase a lot easier, as they achieved with more than 15 balls to spare on both occasions. 

However, their batting got the reality check at home where they bundled out for just 100, resulting in a dreadful 6 wickets loss. Kings will be playing their next 3 games at home and should apply themselves better as a batting unit and strengthen their spin department.

Trinbago Knight Riders Team Preview

Probable Playing XI – Andries Gous, Sunil Narine, Shaqkere Paris, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Keacy Carty, Kieron Pollard (c), Andre Russell, Terrance Hinds, Akeal Hosein, Josh Little, Waqar Salamkheil.

Trinbago Knight Riders as expected made a splendid start to their CPL 2024 campaign, beating Patriots in the high-scoring game by 44 runs. Nicholas Pooran (97) and Keacy Carty (73*) bagged the honours with their incredible power hitting, and later bowlers ensured a comprehensive win. 

Kingpins Andre Russell and Akeal Hosein who were absent for their opener made the way back into the side against Falcons, but that didn’t turn out well as Knight Riders fell short of the target by 6 runs to record their first defeat in CPL 2024. They travel to Gros Islet and Bridgetown for the next two matches before returning for their first home fixture on September 19th.

Venue and Pitch Report

The surface here at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium is a balanced one with an average 1st innings of 178 in the last 7 T20s. Chasing anything more than 160 is always challenging here. St Lucia vs Trinbago Knight Riders promises to be a treat for the fans.

SLK vs TKR CPL 2024 Winner Prediction and Betting Tips

SLK vs TKR Winner Prediction

Out of the 22 matches both teams met in CPL history, Trinbago Knight Riders have won 16 of those while St Lucia Kings emerged victorious only 6 times, hence we predict Trinbago Knight Riders to come out on top when both sides meet on Wednesday.

Top Run Scorer

Keacy Carty looks in great touch having made the scores of 34 and 73* in his last 2 innings, he is expected to continue the same form against St Lucia Kings.

Most Wickets

The conditions are ideal for spin, Sunil Narine who already got 4 wickets in 2 matches in CPL 2024 is likely to rule the SLK vs TKR game.

After analyzing SLK and TKR, the latter has a good spin attack and is likely to win this match. Bet on the Caribbean Premier League 2024 on the GUGOBET Cricket Betting App. Get the best odds and features like Exchange Betting on GUGOBET.

CPL Prediction 2024: SKNP vs ABF

SKNP vs ABF Prediction & BETTING Tips

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots will be up against Antigua & Barbuda Falcons in the 11th match of the Caribbean Premier League 2024 on Super Sunday, played here at Warner Park, Basseterre. It’s the second meeting between the sides in CPL 2024 where Nevis Patriots won on the final ball of the match with a wicket in hand, since then Nevis Patriots have been struggling to get back into form, including heavy defeats against St Lucia Kings, Guyana Amazon Warriors and Trinbago Knight Riders. 

Antigua & Barbuda Falcons who replaced Jamaica Tallawahs who had an unforgettable start to the CPL campaign now have something to rejoice about as they got their first points on the table with a 6-run victory over Trinbago Knight Riders on Friday.

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots vs Antigua & Barbuda Falcons Match Analysis

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots Team Preview

Probable Playing XI – Evin Lewis, Andre Fletcher (c & wk), Kyle Mayers, Sherfane Rutherford, Josh Clarkson, Mikyle Louis, Odean Smith, Wanindu Hasaranga, Ryan John, Veerasammy Permaul, Anrich Nortje. 

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots currently does not have a healthy dressing room because of their bad run of form. 200 plus scores over St Lucia Kings, Guyana Amazon Warriors, and Trinbago Knight Riders didn’t fetch them a win on the dead batting wicket here at Warner Park. Bowlers are on the receiving end, conceding the scores of 250, 202 and 266. They made few changes to their squad bringing in Sri Lankan all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga and New Zealand striker Josh Clarkson. Sikandar Raza is already out of the CPL 2024 with an injury while Tristan Stubbs will head to South Africa for national commitments. 

Antigua & Barbuda Falcons Team Preview

Probable Playing XI – Fakhar Zaman, Justin Greaves, Roshon Primus, Imad Wasim, Jewel Andrew, Fabian Allen, Chris Green (c), Kofi James, Sam Billings (wk), Shamar Springer, Mohammad Amir.

Antigua & Barbuda Falcons finally have something to cherish as they ended their four-match losing streak with a narrow 6-run win over Trinbago Knight Riders. All-rounders Imad Wasim (46 runs), Roshon Primus (19 runs and 2 wickets), and Fabian Allen (25* runs and 3 wickets) played a pivotal role in the triumph. With this win, they concluded their home-leg fixtures. 

Venue and Pitch Report

Warner Park, Basseterre already produced heavy run-scoring contests in the CPL 2024 and the same can be expected in the St Kitts & Nevis Patriots vs Antigua & Barbuda Falcons game. Conceding less than 190 at this venue will be considered a huge achievement for the bowlers.

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots vs Barbados Royals – CPL Prediction

CPL: SKNP vs BR Prediction & Betting Tips

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots and Barbados Royals will clash against each other in the 9th match of the Caribbean Premier League 2024 on Saturday at Warner Park, Basseterre. Nevis Patriots boasts a team full of match-winners including Andre Fletcher, Kyle Mayers, Evin Lewis, and Tristan Stubbs who all can strike big. At the same time, the bowling cardon features Anrich Nortje, Tabraiz Shamsi, and Dominic Drakes. They got off to a lukewarm start in CPL 2024 and are confident of regaining their mojo. 

On the contrary Barbados Royals made an emphatic start with a comprehensive 9 wickets win over Antigua & Barbuda Falcons in the 4th CPL 2024 game earlier this week. Bowlers prevailed in the show early on restricting the opposition to a modest 145, and later Quinton de Kock’s batting blitz (87* from 45 balls), steered them to an easy win with 27 balls to spare.

You can review the CPL match prediction on the GUGOBET cricket betting app for St Kitts & Nevis Patriots vs Barbados Royals.

SKNP vs BR Match Analysis

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots Team Preview

Probable Playing XI – Evin Lewis, Andre Fletcher (c & wk), Kyle Mayers, Mikyle Louis, Tristan Stubbs, Sherfane Rutherford, Odean Smith, Dominic Drakes / Ashmead Nedd, Ryan John, Anrich Nortje, Tabraiz Shamsi.

Things have not gone well to the expectations for SKNP in CPL 2024 who have been mainly let down by their bowling while their batters in whatever opportunity they got made full use of it. Evin Lewis and Kyle Mayers are on song at the top and more have been expected from their new skipper Andre Fletcher. Field lapses are one of the biggest drawbacks this season. Anrich Nortje is their best bowler who has been accurate with his line and lengths, effectively using his pace. Mikly Louis who made his CPL debut this season is their X-factor.

Barbados Royals Team Preview

Probable Playing XI – Quinton de Kock (wk), Rahkeem Cornwall, Shamarh Brooks, Alick Athanaze, Rovman Powell (c), Jason Holder, Dunith Wellalage, Maheesh Theekshana, Obed McCoy, Naveen-ul-Haq, Nyeem Young.

Barbados Royals kicked off their CPL 2024 campaign scintillatingly, brushing aside struggling newcomers Antigua & Barbuda Falcons by 9 wickets. The revamped bowling set-up did the trick, as BR restricted ABF to 145 for 9 in the allotted 20 overs. Obed McCoy stood out, taking 3 wickets, while Jason Holder bagged 2 scalps. The debutant Sri Lankan duo Maheesh Theekshana and Dunith Wellalage claimed 3 wickets. 

It hardly took them time to achieve the target as Quinton de Kock destroyed the Falcons bowlers, scoring 87* in just 45 balls. 

Venue and Pitch Report

We can expect a sure-shot batting-friendly surface for the SKNP vs BR game that stays the same for the entire contest. Containing the run-flow will be the hardest task here.

SKNP vs BR CPL 2024 Winner Prediction and Betting Tips

SKNP vs BR Winner Prediction

Barbados Royals have a great bowling attack and a decent batting line-up as compared to St Kitts & Nevis Patriots who have shown weaknesses in both areas. Hence we predict Barbados Royals to win the upcoming CPL 2024 fixture. 

Top Run Scorer

Quinton de Kock on his CPL return, bludgeoned the opposition bowlers to hand a facile win for the Barbados Royals. He is expected to continue the same form against Nevis Patriots. 

Most Wickets

Obed McCoy with his clever variations, picked up 3 wickets against Barbuda Falcons at an economy of 7.75. He is expected to deliver the same against  Nevis Patriots.

Analyzing both SKNP and BR, the former have covered all bases and are likely to win this match. Sign Up now on our Cricket Betting App – GUGOBET and get a 100% Welcome Bonus.

CPL 2024 Prediction: ABF vs TKR

CPL: ABF vs TKR Prediction & Betting Tips

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons gear up to host Trinbago Knight Riders on 6th September at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua in their forthcoming Caribbean Premier League 2024 match. Both teams have had a contrasting start to the CPL 2024 season. Catch the CPL match prediction on the GUGOBET cricket betting app for Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs Trinbago Knight Riders.

The Falcons have had a disappointing start to the season losing all the matches played while Trinbago has won the only match they have featured in thus far. Will the Falcons break the curse or Trinbago continue on their winning streak? Let’s decode this in our ABF vs TKR prediction.

ABF vs TKR Match Analysis

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons Team Preview

The hosts have had a disappointing start to the tournament. They are yet to get points on board after four matches. Both the batting and bowling unit have let them down on the given occasion. The Chris Green-led side needs to make quick amends to their strategy if they want to get back to the winning ways.

Jewel Andrew has been the top performer for the team who has been scoring with an average of over 40 runs. Eyes will be on him once again in the forthcoming CPL fixture. Jewel is one of the top run scorers in this tournament thus far.

Interestingly, ABF has batted first in the matches and has not been able to defend their scores. Their lead pacer Mohammad Amir did not pick up any wickets in this tournament which is a major sign of worry for ABF. Amir’s form can change the tide for Antigua going ahead in CPL 2024.

Probable XI – Chris Green ©, Mohammad Amir, Teddy Bishop, Fabian Allen, FK Zaman, SK Springer, Sam Billings (wk), RS Primus, IM Wasim, KHM James, Jewel Andrew.

Trinbago Knight Riders Team Preview

Trinbago Knight Riders will only be playing their second match of CPL 2024. They comfortably won their first match with a huge margin of 44 runs after putting 250 runs on the board. Nicholas Pooran led the scores for TKR with 97 runs in just 43 balls. Sunil Narine added 38 runs to the tally with an SR of 200.

Bowlers did well to defend the mammoth total. Sunil Narine was the pick of the bowlers picking 2 wickets while giving away just 24 runs in his quota of four overs.

Led by veteran Kieron Pollard, TKR’s squad looks dangerous and full of in-form superstars. Pooran, Narine, Pollard, DJ Bravo, and Jason Roy are names to fear. The Knight Riders surely start as the favourites to win this forthcoming fixture. 

Probable XI – Jason Roy, Sunil Narine, Nicholas Pooran, Shaqkere Parris, Keacy Carty, Kieron Pollard ©, Dwayne Bravo, Nathan Edwards, Joshua Little, Waqar Salamkheil, Terrance Hinds.

Venue and Pitch report

The pitch at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua typically offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. Early on, seamers might get some movement, while as the game progresses, it tends to favour spinners. Batsmen who apply themselves can score heavily, especially in the middle overs.

ABF vs TKR CPL 2024 Winner Prediction and Betting Tips

ABF vs TKR Winner Prediction

Trinbago Knight Riders have a stronger squad combination and more in-form players as compared to Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. We predict the Trinbago Knight Riders to win the forthcoming CPL fixture.

Top run scorer

Nicholas Pooran played a destructive knock in the first match. He is the man in form and you cannot bet against this guy. Nicholas Pooran is likely to be the top run-getter in this fixture.

Most wickets

We are backing Sunil Narine to bag the most wickets in this fixture.

Overall, TKR has an obvious upper hand going into this fixture and is likely to come out on top in this match. Sign Up now on our Cricket Betting App – GUGOBET and use our CPL bonus while betting on CPL 2024!

The 2nd and 3rd T20Is are scheduled on September 6th and September 7th respectively. The Australia Tour of Scotland is happening for the first time in cricket history, and fans are eager to witness the Scot vs Aus contest. 

We at GUGOBET cricket betting app analyse the Scotland vs Australia T20I series along with the winner prediction.

Australia Tour of Scotland 2024 Schedule

1st T20I – September 4th at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM Local Time), Grange Cricket Club Ground, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh

2nd T20I – September 6th at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM Local Time), Grange Cricket Club Ground, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh

3rd T20I – September 7th at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM Local Time), Grange Cricket Club Ground, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh

Scotland vs Australia T20I Series Preview

Scotland Preview:

Squad:

Richie Berrington (c), Charlie Cassell, Matthew Cross (wk), Brad Currie, Jasper Davidson, Chris Greaves, Ollie Hairs, Jack Jarvis, Michael Jones, Michael Leask, Brandon McMullen, George Munsey, Safyaan Sharif, Chris Sole, Charlie Tear (wk), Mark Watt, Brad Wheal.

Recent Form: Lost, Won, Won, NR, Lost

It’s a big collaboration between Scotland and Australia, marking history by playing their first-ever bilateral T20I series. Scotland missed out on Super 8 qualification by a whisker in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 held in the USA & West Indies a few months back. They were placed in the same group that involved former champions England and Australia. The contest against England washed out at the mid-way due to rain whereas they lost to Australia by 5 wickets that went down to the wire. 

Meanwhile, they bossed Namibia and Oman by 5 wickets and 7 wickets respectively to finish 3rd in the Group B standings with 5 points. Scotland with their bold performances made a clear statement that they can’t be taken lightly anymore. The big trio George Munsey, Brandon McMullen, and skipper Richie Berrington impressed with their batting show with all of them scoring more than 100 runs each. Top order batter Michael Jones who represents Durham took a break in between the T20 Blast and featured in the marquee event and managed 89 runs across 4 innings. 

Front-line pacer Brad Wheal bagged the honours with the ball, picking up 5 wickets, most for Scotland, while fellow pacer Safyaan Sharif and left-arm spinner Mark Watt picked up 4 wickets and 3 wickets respectively. 

The 15-member side that featured in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 held in June has been retained while rookie seamers Charlie Cassell and Jasper Davidson who made waves in the recent ICC CWC League 2 held in July have been added to the T20I squad. Charlie Cassell garnered attention with a 7-wicket haul in his ODI debut against Oman while Jasper Davidson too came into the limelight with a 4-fer on his debut outing against similar opponents. Interestingly both Cassell and Davidson are in the line to make their T20I debuts. 

The forthcoming series against Australia will be Scotland’s second bilateral T20I assignment this year following their 2-1 away victory over the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in March. They previously hosted New Zealand in 2022, losing it badly by 2-0. 

Current skipper Richie Berrington is their all-time leading run-scorer in T20Is, amassing 2194 runs in 94 matches at an average of 32.26 which comprises 10 half-centuries and a century. The 28-year-old left-arm spinner Mark Watt tops the leading wicket-takers chart with 80 scalps. 

Australia Preview:

Squad:

Mitchell Marsh (c), Sean Abbott, Xavier Bartlett, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Nathan Ellis, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Travis Head, Josh Inglis (wk), Riley Meredith, Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa.

Recent form: Lost, Lost, Won, Won, Won

Australia haven’t featured in any International contest since their disappointing exit from the T20 World Cup 2024. They incurred a shocking 21-run loss against Afghanistan in one of the Super 8s fixtures and were knocked out of the competition by India in the follow-up by 24 runs. The ageing squad and not a lot of exposure to turning tracks of the Caribbean meant they packed the bags way too early. Not the send-off batting stalwart David Warner would have imagined as he bid adieu to the T20Is at the end of the tournament. 

With a big summer coming up, the selectors decided to give a break for their key players hence super stars Glenn Maxwell, Pat Cummins, and Mitchell Starc have been rested while ace pacer Josh Hazlewood who was initially in the squad was ruled out with calf strain and he will be replaced by Riley Meredith. The injury list goes on as left-arm seamer Spencer Johnson has been sidelined with a side strain which he picked up while playing in The Hundred for Oval Invincibles and Sean Abbott comes in as his replacement. 

Mitchell Marsh who failed to take the side to the knockouts in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 has been backed and handed the responsibilities to lead the side again in the forthcoming T20Is against hosts Scotland. Xavier Bartlett who made his ODI and T20I debut against West Indies earlier this year comes back into the squad while dashing young batter Jake Fraser McGurk who was in the reserves in ICC T20 World Cup 2024 cuts. Western Australian player Cooper Connolly has been handed his maiden Australia-call up following his impressive show in domestic cricket and the Big Bash League.

In and out of the side since making his ODI and T20I debut against South Africa last year, all-rounder Aaron Hardie finds his place. Travis Head, Tim David, Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa, Cameron Green, Josh Inglis, Nathan Ellis, and skipper Mitchell Marsh who were part of the T20 World Cup squad have been retained. 

It’s a completely new experience for the troops who have never been to Scotland before although they have the potential to adjust to the conditions quickly. 

Scot vs Aus T20I Series 2024 Winner Prediction

Both Scotland and Australia have played against each other only once before in the T20Is with the latter coming on top right at the end by 5 wickets. Considering the squad’s depth and overall experience, Australia has a huge chance of winning the series 2-1. 

Top Picks Scotland vs Australia T20Is

George Munsey:

George Munsey is a busy cricketer at the crease and a clean striker of the cricket ball. He made his Scotland debut against Ireland in 2015 and to date he featured in 71 T20Is, scoring 2006 runs at an average of 31.34 with the best score of 132. You can put your money on him in the Scotland vs Australia T20I series.

Jake Fraser McGurk:

Jake Fraser McGurk who featured in 2 ODIs for Australia earlier this year against West Indies is set to make his T20I debut in the upcoming series against Scotland. McGurk is termed as the perfect replacement for outgoing David Warner. The 22-year-old dashing opener caught the selector’s eye in the 2023/24 Big Bash League where he smacked 257 runs in 8 innings for Melbourne Renegades. 

His fearless approach was enough to make his ODI debut against the West Indies. His big-hitting prowess was further recognized in the cash-rich Indian Premier League where he accounted for 330 runs in 9 matches for Delhi Capitals at a whopping strike rate of 234.04 which comprises 4 half-centuries. It’s advisable to bet on him on our cricket betting app.

West Indies vs South Africa T20 2024 Prediction

South Africa Tour Of West Indies 2024 T20 Series Prediction

West Indies and South Africa are no newcomers to each other, especially in this format, having played a three-match T20I series in Jamaica in May, before the 2024 T20 World Cup, and meeting in the Super Eights stage! However, with the T20 World Cup over and the next one in February 2026, both teams hope to allow a few fresh players to shine on the international scene during this West Indies vs South Africa T20 series.

All three games in this three-match series will be contested in Tarouba’s Brian Lara Stadium, where we can expect large attendance due to a Women’s CPL fixture immediately following each game. The West Indies had a perfect record in the previous series, but South Africa won the last head-to-head, thus this could be an exciting contest to start the newest Wi vs SA series. 

In addition, the South Africans have recently won the 2-match test series (1-0) before this West Indies vs South Africa T20 series. However, the West Indies players will be looking to make amends in the shorter game format where their skills are more in use. The Windies have been a top-notch side in the shorter format of the game, despite having a poor ICC T20 2024 World Cup. 

Check the following detailed analysis from GUGOBET.

Where is West Indies vs South Africa T20 2024?

The West Indies vs South Africa 3-match T20 series is taking place in the West Indies at Tarouba’s Brian Lara Stadium.

Venue and pitch report for the WI vs SA T20 2024 3-Match series

The weather predicts plenty of cloud cover during Friday afternoon in Tarouba, with a continual threat of light showers. It will be steamy from start to finish, and the outside temperature isn’t going to drop below 30 degrees throughout the match, whether it is raining or sunny! Throughout the 2024 T20 World Cup, there were some low-scoring matches on this surface, but England did score 267/3 in one! We predict this pitch to be more like the December 2023 match than the one we witnessed a few months ago, with a par score of 200 or higher.

Squads for the WI vs SA T20 2024 3-match series

West Indies predicted Xl

Johnson Charles, Alick Athanaze, Shimron Hetmyer, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Rovman Powell (c), Roston Chase, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd, Matthew Forde, Obed McCoy, Akeal Hosein

Team Preview

Despite the significant gap until the forthcoming T20 World Cup, the West Indies have chosen established and marginal players to make this squad rather than giving any young blood a chance. Only young batsman Alick Athanaze and bowler Matthew Forde, who have three T20I caps between them, can be called inexperienced in this format! 

The group lacks some seasoned heads in the form of Andre Russell, Jason Holder, and Alzarri Joseph, but with Obed McCoy and Romario Shepherd on the roster, there should be no shortage of excellent pace bowling. On the other hand, Nicholas Pooran is still in good form with the bat, and Johnson Charles has had a great recent record versus South Africa. We also anticipate Shimron Hetmyer, who has long had trouble establishing himself in the team, to be given another chance.

South Africa predicted Xl

Aiden Markram (c), Reeza Hendricks, Rassie van der Dussen, Ryan Rickelton (wk), Tristan Stubbs, Jason Smith, Wiaan Mulder, Ottneil Baartman, Lungi Ngidi, Bjorn Fortuin, Kwena Maphaka.

Team Preview

With several major names rested or occupied throughout this T20I series, some of South Africa’s secondary players will have numerous opportunities to make an impact. In reality, only skipper Aiden Markram, opener Reeza Hendricks, and intriguing new batter Tristan Stubbs have been named to the squad for this series, despite coming close to defeating India in the final in late June.

Many cricket fans from around the world will be checking over the team rosters at the toss, looking for the name Kwena Maphaka. The left-arm fast bowler rose to prominence after being named Player of the Tournament at the 2024 Under-19 World Cup, and he will almost certainly get his first international cap in this match. 

Rassie van der Dussen is a steady presence with the bat in whatever format of the game, and Jason Smith is expected to make his middle-order debut after impressing for the Dolphins in the CSA T20 Challenge earlier this year.

WI vs SA T20: Players to watch out for

West Indies:

Nicolas Pooran: The wicket-keeper batsman is one of the most exciting players to watch out for this upcoming 3-match T20i series against the South Africans. He enjoys the shorter format of the game and boasts of a high strike rate in the T20s. Not only that, Pooran usually takes no time in whacking the ball out of the grounds and is a safe bet for bettors trying to bet on a batsman for this particular series. The South African bowlers will have to watch out for the batting prowess of Pooran for this upcoming series.

Romario Shepherd: The all-rounder will be a crucial asset for the West Indies side as he possesses immense striking ability with the bat and has a knack for taking important wickets at crucial moments of the game. Shepherd has stolen the headlines lately with a brilliant performance in franchise cricket with the Mumbai Indians during the 2024 IPL. The South Africans will have to be careful dealing with Sheperd and his abilities throughout the series.

South Africa:

Aiden Markram: The South African captain is one to watch for this Wi vs SA T20 series as he is tough to stop once he gets going into the game. Markram is more of a steady-headed batsman and will play a crucial role in leading the batting attack for the South Africans. He has a great ability to read the situation of the game and play accordingly. The West Indies bowlers will have to take out Markram early in the shorter format as he will be too tough to handle once he is in form.

Kwena Maphaka: Kwena Tshegofatso Maphaka will be a thrilling spectacle for cricket fans all around the world. He is predominantly a left-arm medium-fast bowler. He represented South Africa in the Under-19 World Cup, taking three wickets for 32 runs in ten overs against India in the semi-finals. Not only that, He also debuted with the Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024. Maphaka will seek to make an impact in the WI vs SA T20 2024 series to secure his spot as a starter. In addition, the West Indies batsman will have to handle Maphaka’s early assault in the power play carefully.

Has West Indies won a Test series in South Africa?

Yes, the West Indies have won a test series against South Africa. Also, South Africa and the West Indies have played 34 Test matches. South Africa has won 23 of these 34 games, with the West Indies winning three. 8 matches ended in a tie. Also, the West Indies have never won a test series in South Africa as of yet.

WI vs SA T20 2024: Winning Prediction

Although South Africa advanced further in the 2024 T20 World Cup than the West Indies, the latter has a strong recent record in the bilateral T20I series. Furthermore, South Africa is missing many of its leading batters and bowlers, hence we expect the host team to win this WI versus SA T20 2024 three-match series.
