Date and Time: 26th August 2021, 7:30 PM IST

Pitch Report
A relatively high-scoring game beckons at Warner Park with there being some help available for the pacers as well. Although the fast bowlers should get the new ball to swing around, the batters will look to go after them early on. As the match progresses, the pitch should slow down, bringing the spinners into play. Both teams will want to bat first upon winning the toss with it being a day game. 160-170 should be a decent total at this venue with wickets in hand being key.
Today’s SLK vs TKR Dream11 Match Top Picks
Wicketkeeper
Andre Fletcher: Andre Fletcher is one of the most explosive batsmen to have played for St Lucia. Given his ability to get his side off to a flyer, Fletcher is one to watch out for in this fixture.
Batsman
Lendl Simmons: CPL 2020's top run-scorer Lendl Simmons is yet to come up with a big knock in this edition. Blessed with an eye for big scores and excellent temperament, Simmons is a must-have in your Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Sunil Narine: Sunil Narine is TKR's trump-card with his mystery spin and pinch-hitting at the top of the order. With the nature of the pitch also playing into his favor, Narine should have a big say in the outcome of the game.
Bowler
Obed McCoy: Obed McCoy has had a great few months with a heap of wickets to his name. Capable of holding his own with the new ball and in the death overs, McCoy should pick up a wicket or two in this game.
