00:00Two-time champions Barbuda's Royals are at home for Wednesday's clash against the

00:04Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. Sri Lankan cricketer Dunit Villalaghi had to

00:08return home which means changes are expected. Coach Trevor Penny is not

00:12willing to give away much but a couple names seem certain.

00:16Big secrets? It's a bit of a secret because we've got David Miller and Kesh Maharaj in now.

00:22We've got our full complement of five overseas and Alec Apenasie

00:27looks like he's fit for selection as well so it will definitely be a

00:31different team. It's a good headache to have because some of the youngsters that

00:35have come in have played really well as well. Pitches in the Caribbean have

00:38often been criticized. Penny also gives his take on one of the venues which was

00:43somewhat unpredictable. Yeah the funny one in St. Kitts with 250 and then when

00:49we played it was a bit worn. 150 wickets so sometimes you don't know that

00:54That wicket there was just an absolute belter and we played a few warm-up

00:58games here and in the camp and they actually played quite well as well

01:03because we had some middle practices on the same wicket so still played quite

01:07well. I think everybody knows that spin play comes into the CPL as the

01:14tournament goes on the spinners come into play. And what's his take on the

01:17wicket for the clash between the Royals and Falcons? It looks good, looks like

01:22during the camp actually. But sometimes you just don't know what's

01:27underneath this and at the moment that that looks like a decent wicket. The

01:30Barbados Royals have won both their matches while the Falcons have two wins

01:35and four losses. Vinod Nawani, TV6 Sport
