In Match 08 of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2024, the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons will go head-to-head with the Trinbago Knight Riders. The Falcons have had a challenging tournament thus far, having lost all four of their matches, leaving them in desperate need of a turnaround.
On the other hand, the Trinbago Knight Riders have had a more promising start, having won their only game to date. As the Falcons seek to get their campaign back on track, they will need to deliver a strong performance against a Knight Riders team that has shown early potential in the tournament.

Sir Vivian Richards Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua, is generally known for being favorable to batters. The outfield is usually fast, and the square often provides good bounce for bowlers. However, pitch conditions can fluctuate based on the match’s weather. In the presence of significant moisture, the pitch may slow down and offer more turn to spinners. While it is expected to be a solid wicket for batters, bowlers will need to maintain discipline to keep the scoring in check.
