Pre-Match Analysis:
La Soufriere Hikers has a golden opportunity to strengthen their position at the top of the standings as they take on weakened Fort Charlotte Strikers in their 7th fixture. Hikers have maintained a high level of consistency throughout and it is evident in their results. Barring their only loss against Grenadines Divers, they dominated the other 5 matches which were all one-sided. Dejourn Charles (207 runs and 4 wickets), Dillon Douglas (142 runs and one wicket), Jahiel Walters (137 runs), and Rayan Williams ( 6 wickets) are the main pillars, who have played decisive roles in taking the team this far.
Fort Charlotte Strikers had a disastrous run in the Vincy Premier League Season 6 as they became the first team to get eliminated. They made a promising start with a 6-wicket win over Botanical Garden Rangers but later suffered 6 losses on the bounce to languish at the bottom of the standings. Batters let the side down most of the time, which is the major reason behind their downfall. With everything done and dusted, they will be playing one last time in the tournament and will aim for a consolation win.
