Saint Lucia Kings will take on St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in the 14th match of the Caribbean Premier League 2024 on Friday (IST). After winning their first two games, they have suffered a setback in two back to back losses.

Saint Lucia Kings Review:
Apart from the game against Guyana Amazon Warriors, the Kings have batted well this season. And, given the kind of form St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots are, they have a good chance of coming back to winning ways.
Riding on Roston Chase’s 56-run knock off 40 deliveries, Saint Lucia Kings posted a 187-run total in their last game. Du Plessis and Johnson Charles, once again, provided a pretty good start in the powerplay. Both are must-have choices for your fantasy XI.
B Rajapaksa has now two good scores to his name. His form will be crucial going ahead in the tournament. As with the ball, Noor Ahmad has been their standout bowler. In four matches, he has six wickets to his name. However, the other bowlers need to step up as well if they want to go ahead in the tournament.
Sadrack Descarte played the last match and returned with impressive spell of 1 for 24. He will be one to look out for.
St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots Review:
Much like the Kings, it’s the bowling that has dissapointed the most for St. Kitts and Nevis Patriots. Andre Fletcher and Lewis haven’t been consistent but holds key at the top of the order. Kyle Mayers need to show more responsibility with both bat and ball if they want to make a comeback.
Hasaranga’s arrival, though, has served well so far. He picked four wickets in the last game and has also looked brilliant with the bat. In their last game, Mikyle Louis showed his firepower with a 36-ball 63-run knock. He has now been consistently showing his potential and it will be interesting to see how he fares with the bat for the rest of the season.
With the ball, the onus will be on Nortje and Hasaranga. Permaul has bowled brilliantly in the last two games and this is a positive sign for them.
