Fresh from a thrilling win in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2025 season opener, St Kitts and Nevis Patriots will be eager to keep the momentum going when they welcome the Guyana Amazon Warriors to Warner Park on August 16. Skipper Jason Holder has an enviable batting lineup at his disposal, featuring the explosive trio of Andre Fletcher (wicketkeeper), Evin Lewis and Kyle Mayers at the top, with Rilee Rossouw and Alick Athanaze adding serious punch in the middle order.
Their bowling attack is equally impressive, led by the pace of Naseem Shah, Fazalhaq Farooqi, and Navian Bidaisee, all ready to make the most of home conditions that reward disciplined seam and swing.
Across the pitch, Imran Tahir’s Warriors bring a well-balanced mix of Caribbean flair and international experience. Shai Hope and Shimron Hetmyer will be key anchors with the bat, while all-rounders Moeen Ali and Romario Shepherd offer versatility. The spin threat will be real, too, with Gudakesh Motie partnering Tahir to challenge the Patriots’ technique, especially if the surface starts to wear under lights.
