BASSETERRE, St. Kitts - WITH St. Kitts and Nevis scheduled to host the ‘biggest party in sports’ later this year when nine of the 2014 Caribbean Premier League (CPL) matches will be played at the Warner Park Cricket Stadium, a former cricketer believes that the benefits would be lucrative for the Federation.

 
On March 11, CPL Chief Executive Officer Damien O’Donohoe announced that Warner Park would be the host of nine games, including the Semi-Finals and Final, in the tournament slated for July and August.
 
Speaking with SKNVibes Sports, former St. Kitts, Leeward and Combine Islands batsman Victor Eddy voiced his belief of how the CPL could benefit the Federation.
