CPL 2025, Match 02: St Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Guyana Amazon Warriors match highlights and scorecard

The second game of the 13th season of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) in 2025 took place between the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and the Guyana Amazon Warriors at Warner Park in Basseterre, St. Kitts. The former won the curtain raiser of the event against the Antigua side and looked to repeat the same performance. 

Guyana’s captain, Imran Tahir, won the toss and opted to bowl first on a surface that gets better to bat on in the second innings. Patriots went with the unchanged XI while Guyana was boosted in the presence of West Indies’ T20I captain, Shai Hope, Shimron Hetmyer, and Moeen Ali.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots struggle to reach 153/8

It wasn’t a great evening for the Patriots with the bat. Veteran wicket-keeper batter, Andre Fletcher, smashed 60 runs in 41 balls at a strike rate of 146.34 with the help of five sixes and one four. The middle order couldn’t contribute at all to their batting.
