Jamaica Tallawahs Best Betting Tips & Odds: CPL 2021 Betting on Fun88

Jamaica Tallawahs is certainly amongst the most successful teams of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL), having won the championships in 2013 and 2016. That said, it’s been a while that this team did really well, and therefore, they will be looking to have a much better season this time than the last few years.

Unlike other teams, the good thing is that the Jamaica Tallawahs know how to perform on a big day. On the two occasions they made it to the finals; they ended up winning the tournament. However, they have also been erratic in the other seasons.

For example, Jamaica Tallawahs was eliminated in the initial rounds of the CPL in 2017 and 2018. Even though they managed to reach the semi-final in CPL 2020, their performance left a lot to be desired. Jamaica Tallawahs always look like a great side on paper, but often, they find it tough to live up to the expectations.

That said, the team has some of the best players in the T20 format, like Andre Russell, Shakib Al Hasan, and Carlos Brathwaite. The biggest positive for them this year is that they have roped in Shakib Al Hasan, who’s a superb allrounder and arguably the greatest ever player from Bangladesh.

Shakib’s inclusion gives this team the much-needed depth, and as a result, they are expected to go far in CPL 2021.

In this blog, our experts, at Fun88, will look at how Jamaica Tallawahs are better placed in the current edition of CPL than earlier, what are their chances of winning, and who are going to be their key players.

Betting tips and odds for Jamaica Tallawahs in CPL 2021

A strong mix of players, some seasoned and some young, is likely to ensure that Jamaica Tallawahs will go deep in CPL 2021.

The team is expected to benefit big time due to the inclusion of Shakib, who’s good with both bat and ball. He has a batting average of 23.5 and has taken 102 wickets in the Twenty20 International (T20) format.

More than anything else, Shakib has the tendency to rise to an occasion. In difficult situations, he can score runs, which come in handy, and take wickets when it matters the most.

Being a Bangladeshi player, Shakib has tremendous experience of playing on slow wickets, like at Warner Park, Basseterre, St Kitts. He’s sure going to be an asset for his team.

Another exciting addition in the line-up is that of Qais Ahmad, the talented leg-spinner from Afghanistan. Qais is going to make the most of the turning track offered by Warner Park.

By all counts, he may end up being the best bowler of Jamaica Tallawahs. He may be only 21, but he’s that one leg-spinner that various teams would like to have. That’s why Qais plays in CPL, the Pakistani Super League (PSL), and Big Bash League (BBL).

Then, the team has Andre Russell, who’s well recognized as one of the best T20 players ever. He has been the most successful bowler of Jamaica Tallawahs, having taken 58 wickets so far. Besides, he’s more than capable of changing a match with his bat.

With a strike-rate of 156.3 in the T20 format, Russel can hammer bowlers all over the park and win matches for his team effortlessly. Jamaica Tallawahs has other local players, as well, who have played for the national side of the West Indies, including Brathwaite and Fidel Edwards.

When in form, Brathwaite can be devastating. Remember how he hit Ben Stokes for four consecutive sixes in the final of ICC World T20 championships in 2016, eventually helping his team beat England and win the cup? The thing is, Brathwaite must show his form a lot more consistently than he usually does.

Similarly, Edwards is a talented but erratic fast bowler. He can bowl at a good pace but at times struggles to take wickets.

Jamaica Tallawahs is missing out on some important players this year

Glenn Phillips, who scored 316 runs last year for Jamaica Tallawahs, is not returning to CPL this year. Imagine what Phillips could have done if he was part of the team this year. Needless to say, he will be missed, and his absence means that someone else from the team will have to step up to fill in his shoes. Are other batters listening?

Nkrumah Bonner, a capable all-rounder, who played for Jamaica Tallawahs last year, is not going to be a part of their line-up this year. Similarly, Mujeeb ur Rahman, who took the maximum number of wickets for Jamaica Tallawahs last year, is not playing this year for them.

Key players from Jamaica Tallawahs to watch out for in CPL 2021

• Shakib Al Hasan – Shakib is going to be a key player for Jamaica Tallawahs this year. So much depends upon him that if he doesn’t perform well, his team will find it very tough to do well. But, we know that Shakib performs well in tight situations.
• Qais Ahmad – This talented bowler is expected to weave a web of leg-spin around batsmen in CPL 2021. Much will rest on his shoulders, as he’s expected to extract turns and variations from the pitch to get the better off the batters.
• Andre Russell – Along with Shakib, Russell is the most talented all-rounder of Jamaica Tallawahs. His presence, whether batting or bowling, is going to play a major role in how his team performs overall.
