The ‘biggest party of the summer’- CPL T20 2020- is just about heating up and the sixth game will see Trinbago Knight Riders square off against Jamaica Tallawahs at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad.
Trinbago Knight Riders will be looking to emulate their performance from the opening game where they defeated Guyana Amazon Warriors by four wickets.
Sunil Narine was the star of the show for TKR in their opening fixture. The vile off-spinner claimed two crucial wickets of Chanderpaul Hemraj [3] and Ross Taylor, who was looking ominous during his 21-ball 33. Narine [2-19] and Ali Khan [1-21] were the pick of the bowlers as they restricted Guyana to 5-144.
Narine, then, came back and smashed a whirlwind 28-ball 50- an innings which included four sixes and two fours- that helped Trinbago Knight Riders chase down 147.
Jamaica Tallawahs, on the other hand, will also be playing their second fixture on Thursday. At the time of writing, the Rovman Powell-led unit was locking horns with St Lucia Zouks.

Trinbago Knight Riders vs Jamaica Tallawahs, 2020, 6th Match-Dream 11, Fantasy Tips
Sunil Narine [50 off 28 balls; 2-19] was the MVP for Trinbago Knight Riders in the last game. He will once again be the key.
Talking about MVP, Dre Russ [Andre Russell] is another great option for captain/vice-captain of your Dream11 team.
Apart from the aforementioned duo, the likes of Lendl Simmons, who struggled in the first game, Chadwick Walton, Glenn Phillips, Rovman Powell and Darren Bravo, who stroked 27-ball 30 in the last game, are prudent options as far as batting is concerned.
Dwayne Bravo and Kieron Pollard may not have had a good first game but it wouldn’t be a great decision to leave out the two stalwarts of T20 cricket.
Ali Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Veeraswamy Paul, and Sandeep Lamichanne are prudent options with the ball.
