A triple-header action awaits at the Jimmy Powell Oval, West Bay with Miami Lions and Boca Raton Trailblazers set to square off in the second game of the Max Sixty League.
The Miami-based side named English all-rounder Ravi Bopara as their icon player for the inaugural Max Sixty League. The squad comprises other stars such as Corey Anderson, Joe Burns, Chadwick Walton, Jonathan Carter, and Gerhard Erasmus, among others. Nepal Cricket captain Rohit Paudel, former Afghanistan star Asghar Afghan and Nikhil Chaudhary of Hobart Hurricanes are few other names in the community.
Meanwhile, the Trailblazers have opted for David Warner as the icon player with Justin Graham and Darren Gough as the head coaches. The side consists of the some exciting Aussie flavour in Beau Webster and Peter Hatzoglou. New Zealand all-rounder Colin de Grandhomme, English bowler Pat Brown, UAE batter Vriitya Aravind and young Scottish pacer Jack jarvis are among other exciting prospects in the Boca Raton side. 
The T10 clash is all set to hit the Caribbean shores with this action-packed contest sandwiched between two others enthralling encounters. Ahead of the game, let’s hover through the match prediction, pitch report, and top players for this encounter.
Jimmy Powell Oval, Caribbean Pitch Report
Only a couple of competitive games have been played here that haven’t been recorded properly. Teams won batting and bowling first once each. However, it is expected that the surface should be a low-scoring one with the bowlers having their say more than the batters. A fresh pitch is supposed to favour the batters at the start but might slow down as the Max Sixty League tournament progresses.
BRT vs ML Squads
Boca Raton Trailblazers Squad in Max Sixty League: David Warner (icon), Beau Webster, Evin Lewis, Peter Hatzoglou, Colin de Grandhomme, Pat Brown, Matthew Calder, Jack Wood, Steven McGiffin, Vriitya Aravind, Jack Jarvis, Jonty Jenner, Jermaine Baker, Romario Edwards, Rahul Garg.
Miami Lions Squad in Max Sixty League: Ravi Bopara (icon), Corey Anderson, Joe Burns, Nikhil Chaudhary, Jack Prestwidge, Chadwick Walton, Jonathan Carter, Gerhard Erasmus, Rohit Paudel, Unmukt Chand, Conroy Wright, Mark Taylor, Mohan Manivannan, Asghar Afghan.
BRT vs ML Top Players Predictions
Beau Webster (BRT): The Aussie all-rounder has the ability to hit big sixes and stitch crucial knocks in the middle and lower middle order. Webster is also a handy seam bowling option for any captain who has the ability to hit the deck and generate valuable seam movements. Webster would be looking to make a similar mark in the Max Sixty League.
Gerhard Erasmus (ML): The Namibian captain is one of the best players of spin during the middle overs phase. He played some crucial knocks in the recent T20 World Cup 2024 and has the knack for picking up wickets as well. In addition, he smashed a couple of fifties against Scotland in the recent tri-series including Oman, Namibia and Scotland.
Unmukt Chand (ML): The USA batter was in the newspapers after numerous impactful knocks for the Los Angeles knight Riders during the 2024 Major League Cricket tournament. Racking up 158 runs from six innings, Chand was one of the positives for his side in a poor outing.
BRT vs ML Key Players To Watch Out For
- Corey Anderson (ML): Experienced all-rounder and a match-winner on his day.
- Peter Hatzoglou (BRT): Finger-spinner with uncanny bowling style.
- David Warner (BRT): Australian star batter who can score plenty of runs at the top.
BRT vs ML Match Predictions
According to the odds for match prediction, the Miami Lions are likely to score less than 18.5 runs for the opening partnership. In addition, their counterparts, Boca Raton Trailblazers are likely to score below 21.5 runs for the opening stand due to the nature of the T10 cricket. The Lions (2.06) are likely to get a better opening stand in the Max Sixty League affair.
BRT vs ML Winner Prediction
The Miami Lions sound a better side on paper. Although the Boca Raton Trailblazers have a few match-winners in the line-up, they lack team balance. Henceforth, the former are the favourites to win the particular Max Sixty League clash.
