The tournament window for the 2021 Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) has been confirmed. The 2021 event will get underway on 28 August and will run until 19 September

This year the tournament will take place in St Kitts & Nevis with all 33 matches being played at Warner Park. This follows on from the successful staging of Hero CPL in Trinidad & Tobago in 2020. 

 

In 2020 the tournament had a combined viewership of 523 million, an increase of 67% on 2019, with record value delivered to sponsors and commercial partners. 

 

Pete Russell, Hero CPL’s COO, said: “It is really exciting to have the tournament window for 2021 confirmed and I would like to thank St Kitts & Nevis government for agreeing to host this year’s event. We would also like to extend our thanks to Cricket West Indies for helping us create this window in a busy summer of cricket for them. We are looking forward to once again successfully staging the Hero CPL in 2021.”

Amazing that all matches will be played at one ground, in Trinidad last year they had the benefit of using two grounds, by the time the finals come around the ground could be worn out.

This year's CPL should be very exciting. Warner Park is known for two things. The wicket is good for batting and the overhead boundaries are short. Hold on to your seats because there will be a lot of sixes!
