International Cricket This Year Will Take Place in Saint Kitts and Nevis

In a few months, namely in August of this year, the 2021 Hero Caribbean Premier League will take place in the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis. An additional three one-day matches will take place in July. All thirty-three games will be held at St Kitt's Warner Park Sporting Complex.

 

Thus, the country shows its effective fight against coronavirus (only 44 cases and 0 deaths were recorded in Saint Kitts and Nevis).

 

“Everybody is getting excited about it. Not that we just have cricket, but these are difficult times, and we have seen the tremendous economic impact that St Kitts and Nevis has benefited from when we host the usual five [CPL] home matches," said Minister of Sports, Jonel Powell, during a radio programme.

 

"We now have 33 matches, four weeks of cricket, six weeks of hotel stay overs, and we anticipate tremendous economic impacts for ordinary people in St Kitts and Nevis, who have had a rough time over the last year."

 

However, Saint Kitts and Nevis will continue to take strict health measures. So, for example, only 50% of tickets will be sold, and all visitors must be vaccinated.

 

The development of cricket is one of the priorities of the state. The Citizenship by Investment Program has played an important role in its development. For example, with the help of funding, international athletics tracks were built on Nevis.
