Unlucky St Kitts and Nevis Patriots have had two rain-affected games in CPL 2023

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots have a strong team on paper and are among the top contenders to win the CPL. However, luck has not favoured them due to the indifferent weather in St Lucia.

Their game against the Saint Lucia Kings on Sunday was abandoned without a ball being bowled. Earlier, the Patriots, led by Evin Lewis, started their game against Trinbago Knight Riders in an impressive manner.

Sheldon Cottrell got the wicket of Martin Guptill. Blessing Muzarabani also looked impressive, but the heavens opened up, forcing a cancellation of proceedings when they reached 56-2 after five overs. The Patriots are third in the points table with two points.

Their next game is against the Jamaica Tallawahs on August 24 at the Warner Park in Basseterre, St Kitts, where the Patriots will look to go all out to secure a win and move up the standings.

The Kings, meanwhile, are on top of the points table with four points and a net run rate of +1.080. Their massive win over the Royals have helped them immensely in the tournament.
