The CPL this year will notably start on 14th August with the first match scheduled to take place in St Kitts and Nevis. The matches will then continue until 21st September, as the finals will be concluded in Guyana. Last Year the CPL title was won by Saint Lucia Kings which marked a major achievement for the team as it was their first ever CPL trophy.
In response to this the squad received a heroic welcome when they landed back home in Saint Lucia and also received immense applause from across the world for their thrilling performance. Owner Preity Zinta also expressed his delight for the incredible win by the team through a post on social media which sent a frenzy across the internet.
This is because it was the first time ever, Preity Zinta who is also the owner of Punjab Kings won a trophy for the first time in this format of cricket. Notably, Punjab Kings has never won a trophy in the Indian Premier League and so did Saint Lucia Kings until last year.
In this year’s IPL, Punjab Kings delivered an outstanding performance and made their way to the finals but were left behind from the title with just a few runs away and lost to RCB, who also had their first ever win at the Indian Premier League.
