The iconic stadium Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad is set to witness some exhilarating T20 action as it hosts the next leg of the 2023 Carribean Premier League 2023 season. The St Kitts and Nevis Patriots will be taking on the Saint Lucia Kings at the venue on Saturday, September 9. The earlier match between the two teams in this competition was washed out due to rain.
