Founded in 2013, the CPLT20 sees six teams – St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots, Jamaica Tallawahs, Barbados Royals, Saint Lucia Kings, Trinbago Knight Riders and Guyana Amazon Warriors – battle for the region’s championship title. Matches take place in various stadiums across the region. This year, the St. Kitts fixtures are confirmed for 23 – 27 August at Warner Park in Basseterre, one of the host venues of the 2007 Cricket World Cup.
