The 4-day match tournament will see the defending champion and current leader, Barbados Pride, go head to head with the team in the cellar, Windward Islands Volcanoes, at the Diego Martin Sporting Complex, Diego Martin.

This fixture is quite fortunate for Pride which means their chances of retaining the title have sky rocketed.

Twin Islands’ team, Red Force, who are currently fourth in the point standings oppose the third place holder, Guyana Harpy Eagles, at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain.
