2023 RBL CPL match between TKR and Patriots washed out
Rain had the final say in match between TKR and Patriots
The third match of the 2023 Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (RBL CPL), which would have been contested between St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and Trinbago Knight Riders at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground in St Lucia, has been washed out.
Only three overs of play were possible before the downpour started at 10:20h on Saturday, August 19, and play did not resume after that interval. TKR were at the crease, and the score was 19-1 in three overs. In that time, Martin Guptill had got to 11 runs from 15 balls after a very slow start, but was eventually cleaned up by birthday boy Sheldon Cottrell, after surviving a Blessing Muzarabani scare in the previous over.
Cottrell had figures of 1-10 from 2 overs, and Muzarabani returned figures of 7 runs without loss from one over before the heavens opened. Mark Deyal and Chadwick Walton were left stranded at the crease with 2 and 1 run respectively.
The fourth match of the RBL CPL 2023 was set to be contested between the Guyana Amazon Warriors and home side the St Lucia Kings on Saturday evening from 19:00h. They were to battle for top honours.
