The Guyana Amazon Warriors will resume their quest for a maiden title when they play their first match of this year’s Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL) on August 19 at the Daren Sammy International, St. Lucia.

Their clash comes three days after the tournament commences on August 16  with the Kings hosting Jamaica Tallawahs.

According to the official fixtures, released on Monday, the 11th edition of the tournament will run from 16 August to 24 September in Saint Lucia, St Kitts & Nevis, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, and Guyana.

From August 16-20, the home side, Saint Lucia Kings, will appear in four of the fixtures.

From there the tournament moves to St Kitts & Nevis with six matches at Warner Park between 23 August and 27 August with four games for the home team, the Patriots.

The next leg of the tournament will take place in Barbados with the CPL returning to the country for the first time since 2019.

With six matches scheduled for the iconic Kensington Oval, and four home games for the Barbados Royals, there will be lots of excitement about the tournament’s return.

The matches will take place in Barbados from 30 August to 3 September.

From 5 September to 10 September, the tournament will be in Trinidad & Tobago. There will be four home games for the Trinbago Knight Riders and six matches in total.

The final leg of the tournament will take place in Guyana with the matches running from 13 September to 24 September.

The knockout stages will be in Guyana again in 2023, with excitement already building after the successful running of the final last season.

Amazon Warriors have gone to five finals, the last being in 2019, but has not won the tournament thus far.

More so, June 5, will be the players’ draft.

Pete Russell, Republic Bank CPL’s CEO, said: “We are very pleased that the tournament will be staged in five countries in 2023.

As ever, the CPL is a chance for fans across the region and around the world to enjoy world-class cricket. And for the players from the Caribbean, it is an opportunity to showcase their skills and further their careers.”
