Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs Saint Lucia Kings CPL 2024 6th Match: Squad News
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons
The Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have had a tough start to the Caribbean Premier League 2024, losing all three of their matches so far. Their batting lineup has shown flashes of potential but has lacked consistency, with Jewel Andrew being the standout performer in their last game against the Barbados Royals, scoring a crucial 48 runs. However, the rest of the batting order has struggled to build meaningful partnerships.
On the bowling front, the Falcons have not been able to defend their totals effectively, as seen in their nine-wicket defeat to the Royals. Chris Green, the captain, has been economical but needs more support from his fellow bowlers like Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir.
Saint Lucia Kings
Saint Lucia Kings are coming into this match on the back of an impressive five-wicket win over the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots. The Kings showcased their powerful batting lineup, with Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Tim Seifert leading the charge in their chase of 202 runs. The team will look to build on this performance and secure another win.
Their bowling, led by Kyle Mayers and Anrich Nortje, was crucial in restricting the Patriots to a manageable total in their previous match. With a balanced squad featuring both strong batting and bowling units, the Kings are in a good position to challenge the struggling Falcons.

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs Saint Lucia Kings CPL 2024 Pitch Report
The pitch at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium is balanced, offering a fair contest between bat and ball. Historically, it has favored pacers slightly, as seen in the last 5 T20Is where fast bowlers have taken 31 of the 60 total wickets, with spinners claiming 29. The average score in the last 5 T20Is is around 160, indicating a surface that provides decent run-scoring opportunities while also giving bowlers a chance to make an impact.
With rainy weather forecasted, conditions could be more conducive to swing and seam, further aiding the pace bowlers. Notably, in the last five years, teams winning the toss have consistently opted to bowl first, and those bowling first have won 100% of the matches. This trend suggests that the chasing team could have a significant advantage, especially if the pitch becomes difficult to bat on as the game progresses.
