If Evin Lewis brings the form he brought to Saturday’s penultimate St Kitts and Nevis Patriots game at Warner Park in St Kitts to Wednesday’s CPL 2021 final, new champions will be crowned. And thanks to a lacklustre showing by Kieron Pollard’s Trinbago Knight Riders in the late game on …

With 10 points already in the bag, Kieron Pollard’s Trinbago Knight Riders and Dwayne Bravo’s St Kitts and Nevis Patriots are above the fray. Jason Holder’s Barbados Royals (4 pts) remain in the cellar, out of it. In the middle, however, are the other three teams, all fighting to claim …

Kieron Pollard’s Trinbago Knight Riders effortlessly disposed of the Barbados Royals by six wickets in Thursday’s morning match at Warner Park in St Kitts, leaving Jason Holder’s struggling side in a near hopeless situation in the 2021 CPL. Needing to win to stay in business, the Royals failed to bring …

You don’t have to do the math. Dr Eric Williams did it for us all all those years ago when Frank Worrell was still captain of the West Indies team. Well, sort of. One from ten leaves nought, he said. For us, it is one from 11 leaves nought. Injury …

A catastrophic early collapse when they batted and a steady, level-headed second-wicket partnership when they fielded left the Jamaica Tallawahs’ ship taking water as they fell to the Trinbago Knights Riders in 2021 CPL action at Warner Park in St Kitts today.

Sheldon Cottrell on Thursday creamed the last ball of Ashley Nurse’s 20th over beyond the boundary at St Kitts’ Warner Park to send his St Kitts and Nevis Patriots team-mates and the home crowd into a frenzy. Mere minutes before, defeat had looked a near certainty for Dwayne Bravo’s side, …

The Patriots being the home team, after Wednesday evening’s events at Warner Park in St Kitts, the Caribbean Premier League may well find itself accused of condoning domestic violence. Led by Sherfane Rutherford’s third half-century and with a late 12-ball 30 from Fabian Allen, Dwayne Bravo’s high-flying troops beat the …

People living in glass houses, we have heard over and over, have to careful bout pelting stone. As a long-time Wired868 contributor, I have made it a major mission of mine to monitor the media’s many mistakes. And my parents, teachers and multiple mentors—God rest all their souls—have made me …
