The most successful team of the CPL, Trinbago Knight Riders (four titles), will be up against the most consistent team of the tournament, Guyana Amazon Warriors (eight finals), in the summit clash of the 2025 edition, as the latter look to double their trophy tally.
After 38 days featuring 33 matches, including some absolute humdingers and six teams, only the two remain in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) – the one who has won the most finals and the other who has lost them the most times, Trinbago Knight Riders and Guyana Amazon Warriors, respectively. It’s the repeat of the 2023 final most recently, and it was also the summit clash of the 2018 edition, with the Knight Riders winning the latter and the Warriors winning the title the only time a couple of years ago. One is chasing its second title and the other is its fifth.ย
The Knight Riders is the star-studded one, featuring the who’s who of the Caribbean T20 superstars, including Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and the current captain Nicholas Pooran. Pooran has already won a T20 title this year as a captain in the USA and will be keen to replicate the feat in his homegrown tournament, in front of the local crowd. The Warriors, on the other hand, have been the most consistent team of the competition, set to play its eighth final in 13 seasons and even though their run until the finals this year has been uneven, with three wins in their last three games, the 2023 champions under their ageless skipper Imran Tahir have the momentum with them.
The home support will obviously be with the Warriors at the Providence, however, the likes of Pollard, Russell and Narine enjoy cult status in the hearts of the Caribbean fans and both teams will be keen to provide a thriller on Sunday, September 21, which also happens to be the birthday of Chris Gayle, the only bona fide legend of the format.
