negative.

From the beginning I said TKR was the team to beat. However, I support both Tallahwahs and GAW. I call it like I see it wink

Guyana Amazon Warriors have won the toss and have opted to field
Pitch and conditions: The boundaries are slightly bigger. Looks like an interesting surface. This pitch is a dry one, plenty of cracks on it. There might be some grip if the dew doesn't come in. Spin will play a big part here, reckons Ian Bishop.

Imran Tahir:
We are going to bowl first. There will be dew later on that, purely because of that. For me it's my second home, feel special in front of this crowd. We got one change, Nandu comes in for Sinclair. We can settle him as an opening batter. We have been up and down. We want to see which batter can bat in that opening spot

Brandon King:
We'll try to replicate what we did last time. I wasn't aware that we have lost five in a row. We have been winning position in few of those games. It's a happy hunting ground for me. It's a great environment in the team. We have quite a few changes in the team, don't remember all of them.

6:32pm It's time for the toss. Tahir gives it a flick. King calls heads it but it comes down as tails. The Guyana Amazon Warriors will bowl first. Tahir says they were happy to do anything but with dew possibly being a factor, he wanted to bowl first. Adds that the opening combination has been a bit up and down, and that they are trying to improve one. A solitary change for them - Nandu comes in for Sinclair. King, unaware that the Tallawahs have never lost five in a row, reckons they have been losing crucial moments in the matches they have lost and says it is about winning those moments. Quite a few changes for the Tallawahs, with one of them forced as Mohammad Amir misses this game due to illness.


The Warriors are the only team to still be unbeaten this season, having won five of their six games (the other was a washout). They are also the only team to have played six matches, which means they can accumulate many points in the fixtures that remain, especially on their home patch.

So far, their batting has worked a charm, with almost everyone contributing. In their most recent encounter, Saim Ayub starred with a half-century. Shai Hope has been consistent too, while the likes of Keemo Paul, Odean Smith, Romario Shepherd and Shimron Hetmyer add plenty of muscle to the lower middle order. Azam Khan has endured a bit of a lean run, although he remains one of the cleanest ball-strikers in the CPL and capable of turning things around in a trice.

As for the Tallawahs, their season began superbly and they registered two wins very early. Since then, though, they have not tasted victory and are currently on a four-match losing streak. With the Barbados Royals also huffing and puffing, the Tallawahs are very much in contention and are just two points behind the Royals, despite having played two lesser games.

So, a win tonight will take them level. For that to happen, however, they need their batters to fire in unison. Against the Trinbago Knight Riders in their last fixture, they stuttered and stumbled to a middling total - a total that was ultimately hunted down with ease. The Tallawahs are not short of firepower but they need to break out of the rut that has engulfed them over the past fortnight if they are to sneak into the playoffs.

The brief for the Warriors is a lot more straightforward (and perhaps boring). One win (out of four matches) will ensure a top-two berth and a date with the Trinbago Knight Riders in Qualifier 1. That will also give them two shots at reaching the final, were they to lose to the Knight Riders. With a passionate home crowd geeing them up, they would hope to secure that top-two finish at the first time of asking tonight.

6pm It's Wonderful Wednesday and it is my pleasure to welcome you all to ESPNcricinfo's live ball-by-ball coverage of the CPL. Tonight, the caravan finally moves to the Providence Stadium in Guyana, with the hosts Guyana Amazon Warriors taking on the Jamaica Tallawahs.

Chris Green, Jamaica Tallawahs all-rounder: It is familiar territory for us. We have things in our own control, if we win our remaining games, we will qualify. We have not played at our best yet but if we can win those games, we can become a dangerous side. I love playing here at the Providence Stadium and looking forward to experience the atmosphere. I know my role with the ball is pretty flexible and I enjoy that challenge. With that challenge, comes the opportunity to be successful. Just about executing, keeping the ball as dry as possible and with the bat, trying to score as many as possible.


Let's see what the conditions have in store for us. The ground is slightly bigger than the Brian Lara Cricket Academy, with the square boundaries being 71m and 69m. The straight hit is 78m. Ian Bishop says the pitch looks dry and there are cracks, although the wicket looks hard. An interesting looking pitch, according to him and he hopes there are runs in store.
