The much-anticipated CG United Super50 Cup 2025 commenced on November 19, with Trinidad and Tobago Red Force facing off against last year’s finalists, Barbados Royals, at the Sir Frank Worrell Memorial Ground in St Augustine. Simultaneously, Jamaica Scorpions clashed with Guyana Harpy Eagles at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, while Windward Islands Volcanoes took on Leeward Islands Hurricanes at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Tarouba. The Red Force, defending champions since their 2023 victory, entered the tournament with a mix of seasoned players and promising newcomers. Despite missing key players like Akeal Hosein and Jayden Seales due to West Indies commitments, the team, led by captain Joshua Da Silva, showcased a blend of experience and youthful energy. The squad includes five debutants—Shatrughan Rambaran, Ricky Naipaul, Abdul Raheem Toppin, Cephas Cooper, and Navin Bidaisee—who impressed during trials and practice matches. Head coach Rayad Emrit and skipper Da Silva lauded their dedication and performance. The tournament’s opening day also saw a repeat of last year’s dramatic final, where heavy rain led to a double forfeit between the Royals and Scorpions, leaving no champion crowned. With high stakes and competitive spirit, the Super50 Cup promises thrilling cricketing action as teams vie for regional supremacy.
