The twin islands haven’t seen any Covid-19 transmission and are mentioned to be one of many most secure locations within the Caribbean.
“Warner Park has been the scene of some of the most iconic matches in CPL history and the high-scoring ground will be an ideal venue for the tournament, and fans can expect explosive cricket,” the CPL organisers mentioned.

“From Chris Gayle’s brilliant hundred against the Jamaica Tallawahs in 2019 to Andre Russell’s explosive century against the Trinbago Knight Riders in 2016, Warner Park has had some classic individual performances. There have also been some amazing matches, not least the game that went to a super-over finish between the St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots and the Knight Riders in 2019.”
This 12 months’s match holds further significance as it’s going down lower than 45 days earlier than the ICC T20 World Cup in India. West Indian and abroad gamers will look to use this chance to push for the number of their nationwide squads.
Hero CPL COO Pete Russell mentioned on Tuesday that, “As was demonstrated during the 2020 tournament, the CPL is a massive boost for the host country with US $51.5 million delivered in sponsorship value for Trinidad & Tobago. We are looking forward to giving St. Kitts & Nevis the exposure they deserve.”
Trinbago Knight Riders are the present CPL champions and the opposite competing groups are Barbados Tridents, Guyana Amazon Warriors, St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots, St. Lucia Zouks and Jamaica Tallawahs.
