Trinidad Tobago is synonymous with quality international players and looks much superior to this squad in Jamaica. They have a strong line up of batting to match with their bowler. On the other side, Jamaica failed as a batting unit. They will struggle against a Trinidad bowling unit. Trinidad Tobago is big favourites to win the match today and the title as well.
