The Caribbean Premier League is away for its inaugural season and the first match will be played between Barbados Tridents and St Lucia Zouks in Barbados' home ground, Kensington Oval.
While Barbados is led by Trinidadian Kieron Pollard, St Lucia have their local boy, Darren Sammy as their captain. There is nothing to separate this sides and all depend on the execution of skills at the right time for this format. The home side have filled in excellent players like Dwayne Smith, Shoaib Malik, Umar Akmal, Shakib Al Hasan, they are also bolstered by local talent in the names of pacers, Jason Holder and Shannon Gabriel.
St Lucia on the other hand, have players of the caliber of Herschelle Gibbs, Albie Morkel, Misbah-ul-Haq and Tamim Iqbal to name a few. Should be a cracker of a game to what promises to be an exciting league coming up.
