Guyana Amazon Warriors take on Lahore Qalandars in the sixth match of the Global Super League at Providence Stadium on Sunday 26 July, an evening start in Guyana.
The Warriors, captained by veteran leg-spinner Imran Tahir, are strong in power-hitting and spin. Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell form the batting core, Mohammad Nabi and Romario Shepherd add all-round options, and Gudakesh Motie and Tahir give them spin control in the middle overs, which is where this pitch is often decided.
Lahore Qalandars are led by Michael Bracewell. Their probable XI includes Shayan Jahangir, Shamyl Hussain, Abdullah Shafique and Farhan Yousaf in the batting, with Usama Mir, Shahab Khan and Mohammad Imran Randhawa among the bowlers. They have capable players but must adapt quickly to slow conditions. Considering the venue and the squad balance, the home side are slight favourites.
