One of the Caribbean Premier League’s (CPL) most competitive sides, the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, has officially locked in its complete fixture lineup for the 2026 Republic Bank CPL season, announcing 10 group-stage matches split between home and regional away fixtures this August and September.
The 2026 CPL tournament is set to kick off across the Caribbean on August 7, running through to a final championship match on September 20. A total of 39 matches will be contested by seven competing franchises representing islands across the region: Antigua & Barbuda Falcons, Barbados Tridents, Guyana Amazon Warriors, Jamaica Kingsmen, St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, Saint Lucia Kings, and Trinbago Knight Riders.
Per the Patriots’ officially confirmed schedule, the side will open its 2026 campaign on the road with an away clash against the Jamaica Kingsmen on August 8. Following three additional away fixtures against Saint Lucia Kings on August 12, Jamaica Kingsmen on August 18, and Antigua & Barbuda Falcons on August 20, the team will return to their home ground at St Kitts’ iconic Warner Park Stadium for four home matches, an expanded home stand designed to build local momentum for the squad’s title push.
The Patriots’ home slate will get underway on August 27, when they face off against defending CPL champions Trinbago Knight Riders in what is already shaping up to be one of the most hotly anticipated group-stage matches of the season. The home fixtures will continue with a rematch against Antigua & Barbuda Falcons on August 30, a clash with Barbados Tridents on September 1, and a final home group-stage match against Saint Lucia Kings on September 3. After wrapping up their home stand, the Patriots will close out their group-stage campaign with two final away matches: against Guyana Amazon Warriors on September 6 and Barbados Tridents on September 10.
In an official statement posted to the team’s verified Facebook page following the schedule announcement, the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots organization expressed excitement for the upcoming season, noting: “The CPL schedule is out and the countdown has officially begun. The St Kitts and Nevis Patriots are locked in, focused, and ready to take on the challenge this season.”
Led by captain Kyle Mayers, the 2026 Patriots roster features a mix of elite regional international talent and standout domestic Caribbean players, including Evin Lewis, Rilee Rossouw, Alick Athanaze, Mikyle Louis, Jyd Goolie, Navin Bidaisee, Andre Fletcher, Leniko Boucher, Jason Holder, Dominic Drakes, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Mohammad Waqar Salamkheil, Jeremiah Louis, and Ashmead Nedd.
Local cricket fans across St Kitts and Nevis have already begun securing tickets for the team’s four home matches at Warner Park, with anticipation building for the side’s first shot at a home-crowd advantage against the defending champions later this summer.
