Pete Russell, the CPL CEO, highlighted the strong partnerships with Guyana and Barbados, which have played a vital role in the league’s growth. “Guyana and Barbados have been amazing partners for CPL over the last 12 years, and it is really exciting to announce them as hosts for the finals in 2025 and 2026 respectively,” Russell said.
