St Kitts & Nevis Patriots started their title defense with a 47-run defeat by Jamaica Tallawahs and followed it up with a seven-wicket defeat against Barbados Royals.
Dwayne Bravo’s side posted 183 runs against Tallawahs and could only post 136 for 8 in reply. Sherfane Rutherford (33 off 22) was the only player to find any joy with the bat. Against Barbados, they put 149 runs on the board, 81 of which came from Andre Fletcher, but could not defend it.
Trinbago Knight Riders started their campaign with a win, defeating St Lucia Kings by three wickets. The four-time champions, however, made a tough job of chasing 143, crossing the line with just four balls to spare. Akeal Hosein took 4 for 13 for TKR.
