Barbados Tridents vs Cape Cobras Prediction

Cape Cobras lost their opening game of the 2014 Champions League Twenty20 vs. Northern Districts followed by another defeat from Hobart Hurricanes. Barbados Tridents received the same fate when Kings XI Punjab let them down in the 5^th match of the event. The two pointless teams will face each other in the 12^th encounter of the tournament and one of them will earn four points.

Players to watch

Raymon Reifer and Dilshan Munaweera punched fifties for Barbados Tridents in their last match but they need support from William Perkins, Jonathan Carter and the all-rounder James Franklin. Their bowling department will revolve around Ravi Rampaul, Jeevan Mendis, Jason Holder and Rayad Emrit.

The batsmen of Cape Cobras were unable to impress in the previous two games and they should put a healthy score on board to win the forthcoming matches. Sybrand Engelbrecht, Charl Langeveldt and Vernon Philander are their only notable bowlers while Robin Peterson has yet to take a wicket.
