SCL Team News
Daren Sammy played the final two group games in a squad that has generally kept things consistent. Noelle Leo missed out last time, but he could return.
SCL Key Players
- Kester Charlemagne: Six wickets in the group stage and a key final over in one of their four wins proved his value.
- Johnson Charles: Out first ball last time out, but the big-hitting West Indies international – and popular franchise figure – will be desperate to hit back.
- Daren Sammy: One innings so far, in which he bludgeoned 40* to prove what he can still offer despite slowing down a little with age.
SCL Team Form
Mon Repos Stars, Mabouya Constrictors, Choiseul Clay Pots and, most recently, Soufriere Sulphur City Stars were all beaten by South Castries in the group stage. Tonius Simon was in good all-round form, but he was outshone by Alex Antoine as he batted them to victory last time out.

CCMH Team News
Central Castries made two changes last time out but Keygan Arnold and Tyler Sookwa will be pushing hard for a recall.
CCMH Key Players
- Ackeem Auguste: An exciting batting prospect, he was pushed up the batting order and scored 43 from 18 balls last time out.
- Stephen Naitram: Another boundary last time out in one of only two balls he faced, the opener can lay a solid platform at the top of the order.
- Alleyn Prospere: After his performance last time out, smashing 40 from 15 balls and taking 2-7 from his two overs, he has earned the right to be considered a huge part of this team.
CCMH Team Form
Central Castries beat Babonneau Leatherbacks in style but then slumped to a 33-run defeat to Gros Islet Cannon Blasters. A narrow win against Laborie Bay Royals kept them in semi-final contention, however, which they sealed with by thrashing Vieux Fort North Raiders. Ackeem Auguste (43) top-scored and Alleyn Propsere hit 40 in a total of 126/6 and Prospere was a key bowler as they restricted Vieux Fort North Raiders to 65/5 in reply.
