St Kitts and Nevis Patriots have won the toss and have opted to field

Jason Holder:
We'll bowl first. In a day game it is a bit tacky and there is a bit of moisture. Very important to win, we know the magnitude of the tournament. Need to take it game by game, the dressing room believes. We need to go out there and prove it. One change for us - Abbas Afridi is out, Nedd comes in.

Nicholas Pooran:
Nicholas Pooran: Happy to bat first. Toss wasn't in our control, but we are pulling it well in this tournament. The team is doing fine which is commendable. Excited to keep it going. We can't take anything for granted, we need to keep trying to imporve. It is still early days in the tournament. Three changes - Nathan Edward, Usman Tariq are Darren Bravo are in. Carty, McKenny Clarke are out.

10:48am Andre Fletcher: "We are in good spirit. Camp is good despite a few loses. We knew what we need to do as a team. Been thinking about my form. Getting good starts, need to carry on long in this game. New pitch, seems a bit tacky. Need to assess and accelerate, and bat as deep as possible. Just need to go out there and be positive, take our chances on the field. Must-win game for us, we believe if we win two out of three, we will qualify."


10:43am Pitch report: A little cloudy but promising, says Ian Bishop. Yesterday the covers were on, it was drenched and there was water everywhere. Bishop says the outfield is very dry now before heading towards the pitch. 63m and 61m square boundaries, 74m hit down the ground. No live grass on the surface, he says. Looks very flat unless the moisture can make it tacky. He expects it to get better by the day.

10:40am Darren Bravo becomes the tenth player to 100 CPL matches. This is just his second match this season

11am Blue skies, white clouds. The drizzle continues, though. Only the pitch and the adjoining areas under cover. Dark clouds hover over the pavilion end with drizzle on one side of the ground! The other side looks bathed in sunshine


10:57am It's drizzling and covers are brought in. Ian Bishop says that the skies in the east look clearer, but for now we wait

11:11am The covers are starting to be peeled off.

11:08am The drizzle has stopped but the ground staff is waiting to remove the covers. Ian Bishop on air says that this is one of the fastest drying grounds in the Caribbean. There were torrential rain throughout yesterday, he adds.

Holder to Munro, out Caught by Jyd Goolie!! banged in short onto off, Munro tries to pull it away but gets it high on the bat. To the left of mid-on and gobbled up by the fielder. The leading run scorer of CPL 2025 is out cheaply.

Holder to Munro, OUT
Massive wicket! Well-directed bouncer on the fifth stump line, hangs back and moves onto the back foot, plays the swivel pull shot, fails to control the pull shot due to the extra bounce off the pitch, miscues it in the air towards mid-on. Goolie moves to his left side and pouches it comfortably.
