The 2022 edition of the Caribbean Premier League is nicely poised at the moment. After St Kitts and St Lucia, the action will now shift to Trinidad. Here, we take a look at the weather conditions in Trinidad and the pitch report of Queen’s Park Oval.
The first phase of the tournament was troubled by rain. But in St Lucia, the tournament happened smoothly. Fans will hope that the Trinidad-leg will also offer some uninterrupted T20 action.
West Indies is one team that will want to do well in the 2022 T20 World Cup. For that, the players who are a part of the core must be in good form. The likes of Kyle Mayers and Rovman Powell are already doing well. Others will also have to find form if the team has to do well in the tournament.

So far, six T20I encounters have happened in Trinidad. Out of this, while three matches have been won by the chasing side, the other games were won by teams batting first. Therefore, the captain winning the toss will have an important decision to make.
The average first-innings batting score of 130 suggests that bowlers will be in play on this track. Batters will have to apply themselves to get a big score. Evin Lewis‘ 91 is the highest score on this pitch while Daren Sammy’s five-wicket haul in 2010 is the best bowling display so far.

The weather is not the best in Trinidad in September. The temperatures reach close to 31 degrees Celsius during the day and might come down until 23 degrees Celsius.
September is actually a rainy month and therefore, we can expect some games to be affected by the same. Usually, 203mm of rainfall gets received in September in Trinidad.
