Pre-Match Analysis:
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots made a notable start to the CPL 2025, recording a 6-wicket win over Antigua & Barbuda Falcons, but the victory didn’t last long as they suffered a 5-wicket loss on the next day at the hands of Guyana Amazon Warriors. Andre Fletcher’s superb stroke play, where he made 60 from 41 balls, took them to 153 for 8, but the score was never sufficient to win the game as their bowlers unable to defend the modest target. Afghan chinaman Waqar Salamkheil, who was the hero during their earlier win over Antigua & Barbuda Falcons, was slightly expensive this time, conceding 35 for 1 in 4 overs. Pakistan seamers Abbas Afridi (2 wickets) and Naseem Shah (1 wicket) showcased their potential but ended up on the losing side.
They might miss the services of their striker, Evin Lewis, for their clash against Trinbago Knight Riders, who injured his hand in the previous game against Guyana Amazon Warriors.
The trophy is missing in the Trinbago Knight Riders’ cabinet since they last won the CPL title back in 2020. Ever since then, they managed 3rd, 6th, Runners-up, and 4th finishes in the following years. The most successful side in the CPL history, with 4 titles, is desperate to put their hands on the trophy for the 5th time.
The new era begins in Trinbago Knight Riders as swashbuckling batter Nicholas Pooran is set to take charge of the side from Kieron Pollard, becoming the only 3rd captain in the franchise history. The side has retained the bulk of their squad, including heavyweights Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard, Akeal Hosein, and Keacy Carty. Colin Munro, who didn’t feature for the side in the last 2 editions, makes his way back. In a major update, they were able to get the services of former English batter Alex Hales, who skipped the T20 Blast and Hundred deals to return to the Caribbean after 2 years. Pakistan seamer Mohammad Amir will be their other overseas signing this season.
The side is fully packed across departments and ready to set the stage on fire from Sunday onwards.
