Caribbean Premier League Cricket Schedule
The Caribbean Premier League is a T20 tournament held annually in West Indies. The first edition of the competition was held back in 2013.
Plans for the Caribbean Premier League first began in September of 2012 as the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) announced a domestic league in the region to replicate the success of the Indian Premier League (IPL) and Big Bash League (BBL). Soon after, the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) was announced to take place in July 2013.
The inaugural champions of the CPL were the Jamaica Tallawahs, while the most successful team in the history of the tournament are the Trinbago Knight Riders.

After the group stage, the top four teams qualify for the playoffs. The top two teams face each other in a qualifier, with the winner advancing straight to the final.
Teams that are positioned third and fourth play each other in an eliminator, with the loser knocked out of the competition.
