Trinidad and Tobago suffered a 28 run defeat to Barbados on Sunday in their Zone B opener, and hosts will be hoping to rebound from the setback.
In their opener on Saturday, Leeward Islands were beaten by 160 runs by the Combined Campuses and Colleges, with only three batsmen managing to get into double figures.
Despite their poor showing in the opening game, T&T’s captain Dwayne Bravo is taking them lightly.
“We are not going to take them lightly,” Bravo said on the www.trinidadexpress.com. “It is a cricket game and we have to respect every opposition.
“I know definitely they will want to rebound and whenever any team plays against Trinidad and Tobago, they raise their standard so we expect a better performance from Leewards’ team.”
