On Thursday, October 27, just two days prior to the start of the 2022 edition
of the Annual CG United Super50 Cup Cricket West Indies (CWI) finally
confirmed the players for all eight participating squads. The 50-over
tournament bowled off in Antigua on Saturday 29 October with a
match between the Leeward Islands Hurricanes and the West Indies Academy
at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium (SVRS).
Defending champions Trinidad & Tobago Red Force opened their campaign on
31 October against Combined Campuses & Colleges (CCC) at the Brian Lara
Cricket Academy (BLCA). The final will be played on Saturday 19 November at
the SVRS. The other two venues for the tournament are the Coolidge Cricket
Ground (CCG) in Antigua; along with the Queen’s Park Oval (QPO) in Trinidad.
The eight teams have been drawn in two groups of four, with Zone A featuring
defending champions and hosts Trinidad and Tobago Red Force, Guyana Harpy
Eagles, Windward Islands Volcanoes, and Combined Campuses and Colleges. Zone
B will be played in Antigua and will feature Leeward Islands Hurricanes, Barbados Pride,
Jamaica Scorpions, and West Indies Academy.
The eight captains are: Nicholas Pooran (Trinidad and Tobago Red Force), Leon Johnson
(Guyana Harpy Eagles), Denesh Ramdin (Combined Campuses and Colleges), Andre
Fletcher (Windward Islands Volcanoes), Shai Hope (Barbados Pride), Rovman Powell
( Jamaica Scorpions), Nyeem Young (West Indies Academy) and Jahmar Hamilton
(Leeward Islands Hurricanes).
Due to the returning contingent from the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, CWI allowed
for larger squads from the originally stipulated 14 players. However, this will only be
applicable for the period prior to the departure of the West Indies Test team on 8
November when the teams must revert to 14 players only.
Fans in the region can watch the matches live from the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium
on ESPN Caribbean. Overseas broadcast partners for the are ESPN+ (USA),
BT Sport (UK & Ireland) and FanCode (India). Additionally, LIVE ball-by-ball
