BARBADOS ROYALS FORM: ROYALS STILL UNBEATEN WITH TWO WINS FROM TWO

ANTIGUA & BARBUDA FALCONS FORM: CONSECUTIVE VICTORIES HAS SPARKED FALCONS REVIVAL
Whilst we’ve always spoken about how difficult it is to snap a losing streak in this sort of competition, if you can manage it then we so often see teams go on a winning run straight afterwards. It looks Antigua & Barbuda Falcons are on the same trajectory, having followed up four straight defeats with two successive wins.
BARBADOS ROYALS BETTING ANALYSIS
Although he may not have played a knock anywhere near as substantial as his unbeaten 87 against the Falcons in his most recent innings vs St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, his 19 at the top of the order was one of many important contributions in a tight, but successful run chase. He knows how to score runs when facing this opposition though and that makes it well worth backing him to record 20+ runs on this occasion via the ‘Batter Milestones’ market.
ANTIGUA & BARBUDA FALCONS BETTING ANALYSIS
Whether it be with the ball or bat, Imad Wasim has been a crucial contributor to Antigua & Barbuda Falcons this campaign. From a purely bowling perspective, his spin has accounted for seven wickets so far across the tournament when including his two scalps in the Falcons’ crucial win over St Kitts and Nevis Patriots last time out. His experience always proves so important and backing him via the ‘Bowler Total Match Wickets’ market to take over 1.5 wickets vs the Royals may prove a shrewd play.
BARBADOS ROYALS VS ANTIGUA & BARBUDA FALCONS EXPERT PREDICTION

Momentum is with them and they look a much better side than earlier in the tournament. Therefore, value is available in backing them to edge this one.
