CG United Women’s Super 50 begins on February 24

THE region’s best women’s cricketers are set to compete in the CG United Women’s Super50 Cup, running from February 24 to March 7 in St. Kitts. The six regional franchises have named their squads to compete in five rounds and a final in the 12-day tournament. Defending Champions Jamaica will bowl off their campaign against Trinidad & Tobago at Warner Park.

The CG United Women’s Super50 Cup continues to serve as a vital platform for the next generation of West Indies cricketers, providing emerging talent with the opportunity to showcase their skills on a competitive stage. With senior international players Hayley Matthews, Deandra Dottin and Chinelle Henry unavailable, this year’s tournament presents a unique chance for emerging talent to step up, gain valuable experience, and stake their claim for future regional and international selection. Many of today’s West Indies stars first made their mark in this competition, and with the added exposure of live broadcasts, this edition promises to unearth the next wave of Caribbean cricketing talent.

For the first time, the entire women’s tournament will be broadcast live on ESPN Caribbean, bringing the action to fans across the region. All preliminary round matches and the final at Warner Park will be televised, marking a historic milestone for women’s cricket in the Caribbean. This year, the teams will be vying for a championship prize of US$ 30,000 with the runners-up securing US$15,000.

Matches will be played at three venues, Warner Park, Conaree Cricket Centre and St. Paul’s Sports Complex starting at 10:00 AM AST, with three games played simultaneously each of the five rounds.
