The six franchises participating in the inaugural Breakout T20 League have finalized their squads following a highly anticipated player draft. Each team was allowed to protect seven players, with a maximum of three aged 27-29, and then selected the remaining seven (26 or younger) in the draft.
The league emphasizes emerging talent, with players required to have played fewer than 40 List A T20 matches and fewer than 10 international T20s. Each franchise also had the option to select two players from outside their home territory. Notably, the draft saw 15 teenagers secure spots across the six teams.

The Breakout T20 League, designed to showcase the Caribbean’s next generation of cricketers, will be held from April 25 to May 10, 2025, with all 17 matches taking place at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad.
Each team is affiliated with a Caribbean Premier League (CPL) franchise, providing a clear pathway for players to advance their careers.

The full squads are as follows:
Guyana Rainforest Rangers: Nial Smith, Kemol Savory, Ronaldo Alimohamed, Kevin Sinclair, Ashmead Nedd, Kevlon Anderson, Riyad Latif, Rivaldo Clarke, Jediah Blades, Isai Thorne, Richie Looknauth, Zynul Ramsammy, Adrian Sukhwa, Quentin Sampson.
