TKR vs BAR Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's CPL 2020 Match - August 23rd, 2020

The first CPL 2020 game of the day features a cracking encounter between the Trinbago Knight Riders and the defending champions, the Barbados Tridents.

The Knight Riders have been the team to beat so far with two wins in two games at the time of writing. With Sunil Narine firing on all cylinders with both bat and ball, the Knight Riders sit pretty at the top of the table.

On the other hand, the Tridents have had an indifferent start to the tournament with one win in two attempts. However, they have arguably the best spin attack in the competition and should pose a tough test to TKR's formidable top-order.

All in all, we should get another entertaining game in the CPL with two of the best teams battling it out in Trinidad.

Pitch Report

A decent batting track awaits the two sides with spin expected to play a significant role in the proceedings. The batsmen have struggled in the middle overs with the pitch on the slower side.

Although rain is expected to play spoilsport, we should get at least a shortened game with the ball expected to skid on nicely to the bat. Both teams would look to chase with 150 being a very competitive total on this surface.
