TKR vs BR Dream11 Prediction: In the CPL 2024 Eliminator match, Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) will take on Barbados Royals (BR). This big Caribbean Premier League match is scheduled to start at 04:30 AM (IST) on Wednesday, October 02, 2024. The winner of this game will face the loser Qualifier 1, which will be played between Guyana Amazon Warriors and Saint Lucia Kings.
With seven wins in 10 league matches, Trinbago Knight Riders finished third on the table. Notably, their points tally was the same as Saint Lucia Kings (14 points), but an inferior net run rate kept them out of the top two. Had they finished in the top two, the Knight Riders would have advanced directly to Qualifier 1.
Barbados Royals, however, will be more concerned with how they finished their league campaign. At one stage, they were poised to finish in the top two, and even looked set to top the table. But a run of four straight defeats derailed their campaign, leaving them to face the dreaded Eliminator match.

Pitch Report: The pitch at the Providence Stadium in Georgetown Guyana is considered a balanced one where the conditions support both the batsmen and the bowlers.
