(Trinidad Guardian) The truth is, the less said on the 2024 version of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) will best do this imitation of years gone, the justice it deserves.
There were so many areas of what turned into a retirement party for several players in the finals and elsewhere (led by, but not consigned to only 40-year-old victorious, former South African player Faf Du Plessis, victorious captain of the St Lucia Kings and 45-year-old, former South African player Imran Tahir, captain of the Guyana Amazon Warriors).
So let us start with many congratulations to the two finalists as they played the hands they were dealt and within the rules that were either imposed or adopted based on prevailing circumstances.
However, ultimately the Caribbean people lost because the doubt and questions over the authenticity and trustworthiness of this paradigm that was CPL 2024 must be investigated and persons must be called to account in a transparent way with consequences.
