CHK Premier League T20 2019-20 - Match 4 Preview – USRC vs DLSWCC – 14th September 2019 at TKRRG

13 September 2019

Match 4 – United Services Recreation Club vs Diasqua Little Sai Wan Cricket Club DLIT
Saturday 14th September 2019 – Tin Kwong Road Recreation Ground – 1:30 PM start

This Saturday sees two teams looking for first win of the competition go head to head at Tin Kwong Road Recreation Ground – AKA, Mission Road. USRC have now lost two on the trot, but have been showing signs of improvement, while DLSW DLIT wound up on the losing side of one of the best CHK PLT20 games in recent years.

Both sides are likely to enter this game unchanged. USRC’s middle order has still not quite fired, but Skhawat Ali and Umar Mohammad have been effective at the top of the order, and their bowling attack has benefited from the additions of youngsters Ehsan Muhammad and Muhayam Zaman. DLSW DLIT were just one mis-field away from defeating last season’s unbeaten champions, and will likely back the same XI to get the job done this time around.

Despite two losses, USRC are not yet out of the running to win the competition. But they absolutely need a win here, along with several other results going their way. DLSWCC are in a much better position going into this game. Despite the loss on Sunday, their NRR stands at 0.00. A win here will put them right back in the running.

We might be in for a bit of rain come this weekend, but hopefully the sun stays out long enough for us to get a result here this Saturday. You can watch this game live and for free on our YouTube and Facebook pages, so be sure to tune in! Live scores will also be available on Cricinfo and CricHQ.
