Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs Trinbago Knight Riders Prediction – CPL 14th Match

The Antigua and Barbuda Falcons host the Trinbago Knight Riders at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in the 14th match of CPL 2026. The game begins at 7:00 pm local time.

The Falcons’ probable XI is led by Fabian Allen and features Evin Lewis, Rahkeem Cornwall, Tim Robinson and wicketkeeper Jahmar Hamilton, with Shamar Springer, Usama Mir, Alzarri Joseph and Jayden Seales in the bowling group. The squad also includes Amir Jangoo and Anderson Phillip.

Trinbago have plenty of experience. Alex Hales and Colin Munro open the batting, with Nicholas Pooran, who is wicketkeeper and captain in this XI, Matthew Breetzke and Kieron Pollard to follow. Sunil Narine and Akeal Hosein supply spin and Usman Tariq and Nathan Edward lead the pace group.

A balanced pitch and a possible dew effect later in the evening make the toss significant. Because the venue has historically favoured chasing teams, the captain who wins it will probably choose to bowl. Our preview expects a first-innings total of 155–170 and gives Trinbago the edge.

Probable playing XI

Pitch report

The surface in Antigua is balanced, with something for both seamers and spinners. The new ball can move and bounce a little early on, while spinners and slower variations come into the game in the middle overs. Strokeplay is possible, though batters may have to work for boundaries once the ball is older. The venue has historically favoured chasing sides, so the toss could be important.

Weather

Warm and humid with temperatures of around 27–28°C and partly cloudy skies. There is a small chance of passing showers in the evening. A moderate breeze is expected, and dew could appear in the second innings if it stays dry, helping the ball skid on for the chasing team.

Expected scores

• 1st innings: 155–170
• 2nd innings: 145–160
