JAM vs STAR T20 Dream11 Team Prediction and Probable XI: Preview

Hello and Welcome to our preview for Jamaica Tallawahs vs St Lucia Stars 7th CPL match. We are covering JAM vs STAR Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI for the CPL T20 match. The match is to be played at Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica.

Jamaica Tallawahs won their first match of tournament miracly single-handedly by Captain Andre Russell. Not only he took hat-trick in last over but also while chasing the whooping total of 224, He came to bat when team was 41-5 and went on to hit 121 runs in 49 balls and finally chased the total in 19.3 overs. K Lewis also hit crucial fifty while Imad Wasim bowled a brilliant economical spell with ball. They would hope other players start performing soon and get their form ahead in the tournament.

St Lucia Stars have lost both the matches yet in tournament and would be eager to get a win unlike CPL 2017 where they did not won a single match. Lack of depth in batting has been the main reason for their defeats and would want their batsmen to perform well for team’s success.

In last match, Q Ahmed was the only positive with ball while L Simmons and K Pollard were the only performers with bat. All players need to put a good show to take team out of their streak of consecutive losses.
