They built a 77-run partnership for the 5th wicket that saved the innings. Holder has been impressive with the bat in the last two games. He is a key finisher for the team.

St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots Preview

St Kitts & Nevis Patriots' pacer Anrich Nortje could be the best bowler on his side's forthcoming game. The speedster has performed wonderfully with the ball in his hands so far. He has taken part in seven innings during the competition. In that time, he has bagged 11 wickets at an economy of 8.80. This makes him the highest wicket-taker of the season so far. He will be confident heading into this game. His goal will be to get those important wickets for his team once again.

However, the Patriots have struggled with their bowling recently. They conceded 200+ runs in their last two matches. Though they were decent in the run chase, they must find a way to restrict the opposition. It is not comfortable to be chasing 200+ runs in every match.

Meanwhile, Rilee Rossouw and Mikyle Louis haven't looked in good touch in the middle order. That is a major concern for the Patriots going forward. Rossouw has plenty of T20 experience as a senior player. He will be expected to lead the side in run-chase situations.

Patriots' Andre Fletcher could be the best batter in the upcoming game against the Royals. With 361 runs in his last 10 matches, Fletcher has been in excellent form. He hopes to put in his best performance in the upcoming game as well.

His lack of form could hurt the Royals' chances of winning this contest. The openers, Mayers and Andre Fletcher, are other big-hitting players in this lineup. They have looked promising so far this season. We expect them to get the hosts off to a flying start in this match.

The bowling attack offers good variety for the Patriots. Naseem Shah has been expensive lately in his recent outings. However, he still has the talent and wicket-taking ability to be effective. There are many pace bowling options in the side. This includes batting all-rounder Kyle Mayers, who can contribute with the ball.

Barbados Royals Preview

Daniel Sams is known for his big-hitting and finishing skills. The Royals should go out with an attacking mindset in this match. They will find more help from the pitch than in the previous game.

Barbados Royals` Quinton de Kock also scored a cautious half-century at the top. However, he wasn't supported by his opening partner, Brandon King. Others at positions 3 and 4 also failed to contribute. Kadeem Alleyne and Shaqkere Parris will be expected to come good in this match. They need to deliver impactful knocks in the middle order.

There is depth in the batting lineup. Big-hitting players like Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, and Daniel Sams provide strength. We think Barbados Royals should consider sending Rutherford at number 4 instead of Parris.

Jason Holder could be the best bowler for Barbados Royals in the upcoming game against the Patriots. He has taken 18 wickets in his last 10 matches. Holder has been in good form, and his spell will be crucial to his side's performance.

Eathan Bosch is a promising right-arm fast bowler in the side. Meanwhile, all-rounder Daniel Sams is one of the most experienced pacers. He must lead the wicket-taking efforts. Jomel Worrican and Mujeeb Ur Rahman were impressive with the spin bowling in their last outing.
