The second semi-final of the Champions League will see the Trinidad and Tobago side play the Cape Cobras. The game will be played at Hyderabad, and the pitch is supposed to be a cracker of a wicket which will enable the batsmen to score many runs.
The Trinidad and Tobago side has had a lot going their way. In fact, their batting has been the strongest in the tournament, and the biggest plus has been the fact that not only have they had batsmen who can thwart the ball at the top of the innings, they possess the artillery to do that in the middle order as well.
On the other hand, the Cobras have a decent batting line-up, but without Herschelle Gibbs firing, it has led to many an issue. However, Gibbs has exhibited tendencies to come good when the occasion is big, and the Cobras will look up to him to provide them with a good start. Bowling is obviously not Cobras’ strongest area and they will look to cover it up with a huge total
Extrabet offers 1.8 for a TT win, as compared to 2.2 for Cobras by Totesports to enter the finals. That is rather surprising given that TT has performed way better than the Cobras and that the TT spin bowling attack adds a lot of teeth to their attack as well. I, for one, would not hesitate in putting my money on the TT side.
