The 2020 edition of the Caribbean Premier League will be played in Trinidad & Tobago from August 18 and September 20, it was confirmed on Friday (July 10). It is set to be the first T20 League to start after the Covid-19 break.
The announcement follows the approval given by the local government and in conjunction with the local authorities of Trinidad and Tobago.
“All teams and officials will be housed in one hotel and everyone will be subject to strict quarantine protocols for the first two weeks they are in the country. Everyone travelling from overseas will be tested for Covid-19, before departure and then again on arrival in Trinidad.
“Teams and officials will be put into “households” where social distancing will need to be in place. There will be smaller clusters within each household where these measures can be relaxed. However, if any member of this cluster display signs of Covid-19 at any time during the tournament all members of that cluster will be expected to self-isolate for a period of 14 days from the time that a member of that group first shows symptoms,” said a statement from CPL.
