The surface at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium is expected to provide a competitive battle between batters and bowlers. The new ball could offer seam movement and some assistance for pacers during the early overs, making shot selection important for the top order.
As the innings progresses, spinners could become more influential and make stroke-making slightly difficult. However, batters who spend time at the crease should be able to accelerate later in the innings. Captains may prefer chasing after assessing how the surface behaves in the first innings.
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons: Moeen Ali (c), Amir Jangoo (wk), Evin Lewis, Karima Gore, Hasan Nawaz, Shadab Khan, Kusal Perera, Shamar Springer, Alzarri Joseph, Fabian Allen, Jayden Seales, Rahkeem Cornwall, Tim Robinson, Tajinder Dhillon, Joshua James, Jahmar Hamilton, Usama Mir, Anderson Phillip, Anderson Mahase
Trinbago Knight Riders: Nicholas Pooran (c & wk), Colin Munro, Alex Hales, Kieron Pollard, Jyd Goolie, Matthew Breetzke, Terrance Hinds, Sunil Narine, Akeal Hosein, Usman Tariq, Nathan Edward, Joshua Da Silva, Matthew Tromp, Dominic Drakes, Dexter Sween, Justin Greaves, Amshi de Silva, Ajay Kumar, Abdul Raheem Toppin
