St Kitts and Nevis, May 25: The Caribbean Premier League (CPL 2021) will start from August 28 and will conclude with the final at the Warner Park here on September 19. All the 33 matches will be played at this venue in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and there will be strict bio-bubble protocols for all involved.

The CPL 2021 players draft will be held on Friday (May 28) and the six teams have made the first step forward announcing the player retention well in advance. Trinbago Knight Riders under Kieron Pollard are the defending champions and they are also the most successful team in the CPL with four titles in their cabinet.

This time too they have retained the core unit with Pollard leading the side and stand a bright chance to add one more trophy. However, the likes of St Lucia Zouks and former champions Barbados Tridents can pose a big threat for them in the tournament.
