President of Cricket West Indies, Ricky Skerritt, has confirmed that CWI, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) engaged in talks for a tweaked CPL schedule to accommodate the second phase of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

The CPL which was originally scheduled to commence on August 28th will now be played in St Kitts and Nevis between August 26 and September 15.

In a recent interview Mr Skerritt noted:

“Both IPL and CPL are important to CWI, to our cricketers and to fans. CWI’s role was to facilitate arrangements for a non-overlapping and smooth transition from one tournament to the next.

Cricket administrators must collaborate if cricket is to survive the risks and costs of Covid-19.”

All 33 matches of the 2021 Hero CPL will be played at Warner Park with a cap of 50% capacity for vaccinated spectators.
