Caribbean Premier League 2026: CPL Fixtures, Points Table, Teams & Latest Updates
Last Updated: September 12, 2026
The Caribbean Premier League 2026 has reached its decisive stage, with the league phase almost complete and the playoff picture becoming much clearer.
Guyana Amazon Warriors have emerged as the dominant team of the tournament. Their latest six-wicket victory over Trinbago Knight Riders took them to 16 points from nine matches, with eight wins and only one defeat.
Antigua & Barbuda Falcons have completed their league campaign with 13 points, while the most intriguing battle is now taking place behind the leading two teams.
Jamaica Kingsmen, Barbados Tridents and Saint Lucia Kings are all sitting on eight points, but their situations are very different because Barbados still have two league matches remaining.
That makes the final two league fixtures especially important.
For fans following Caribbean Premier League 2026 fixtures, results, points table, teams, leading players and playoff qualification, here is the updated picture of CPL 2026.
Caribbean Premier League 2026: What Is Happening Right Now?
The league stage is almost over.
Guyana Amazon Warriors are leading after winning eight of their first nine matches.
Antigua & Barbuda Falcons have completed all 10 league games and sit on 13 points after six wins, three defeats and one no-result.
Behind them, the race is much tighter.
Jamaica Kingsmen have eight points from nine matches.
Barbados Tridents have eight points from eight.
Saint Lucia Kings have finished their league schedule with eight points from 10 games.
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots have completed their campaign with seven points, while Trinbago Knight Riders finish with six.
The latest situation makes Barbados particularly important because their two remaining matches can directly influence the final playoff positions.

CPL 2026 Latest Result: Guyana Beat TKR by 6 Wickets
The latest completed Caribbean Premier League 2026 match saw Guyana Amazon Warriors continue their outstanding campaign against Trinbago Knight Riders at Providence.
TKR batted first and struggled to build a commanding total.
They finished on:
126/8 from 20 overs
Guyana’s bowlers kept the scoring under control throughout the innings.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz produced the standout performance, taking 4/23 from four overs.
Justin Greaves top-scored for TKR with 35, while Colin Munro made 26.
Guyana then chased the target successfully.
The Warriors reached:
127/4 in 18.4 overs
and won by six wickets with eight balls remaining.
The victory moved Guyana from 14 to 16 points and strengthened their position at the top of the CPL 2026 table.
The progression of this matchup and its impact on both campaigns can also be followed in our Guyana Amazon Warriors vs Trinbago Knight Riders standings coverage.
CPL 2026 Points Table – Latest Standings
Following Guyana’s victory over TKR, the current league picture is:
| Pos. | Team | M | W | L | NR | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Guyana Amazon Warriors | 9 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 16 |
| 2 | Antigua & Barbuda Falcons | 10 | 6 | 3 | 1 | 13 |
| 3 | Jamaica Kingsmen | 9 | 4 | 5 | 0 | 8 |
| 4 | Barbados Tridents | 8 | 4 | 4 | 0 | 8 |
| 5 | Saint Lucia Kings | 10 | 4 | 6 | 0 | 8 |
| 6 | St Kitts & Nevis Patriots | 10 | 3 | 6 | 1 | 7 |
| 7 | Trinbago Knight Riders | 10 | 3 | 7 | 0 | 6 |
The most important thing about this table is not simply the ranking.
Barbados have played only eight matches.
Jamaica have played nine.
Saint Lucia, SKN, Antigua and TKR have completed all 10.
That difference gives Barbados an opportunity to completely change the middle of the table.

Guyana Amazon Warriors Take Control of CPL 2026
Guyana have been the standout side of the competition.
Their current record reads:
Played: 9
Won: 8
Lost: 1
Points: 16
They began the season with six consecutive victories.
That run included wins against Jamaica Kingsmen, Saint Lucia Kings, Antigua & Barbuda Falcons, Trinbago Knight Riders and St Kitts & Nevis Patriots.
Antigua eventually ended Guyana’s unbeaten start on September 8.
The Falcons scored 182/5 before dismissing Guyana for 117, winning by 65 runs.
It could have disrupted the Warriors’ momentum.
Instead, they responded immediately.
Guyana beat Saint Lucia Kings by four wickets and then defeated TKR by six wickets.
That response is one of the clearest signs of why they have become the team to beat in CPL 2026.
Antigua & Barbuda Falcons Finish With 13 Points
Antigua & Barbuda Falcons were the early leaders of the competition and have completed a strong league campaign.
Their final record is:
Matches: 10
Wins: 6
Losses: 3
No Result: 1
Points: 13
The Falcons produced several important victories during the season.
They defeated TKR twice.
They beat Barbados by 30 runs.
And perhaps most impressively, they handed Guyana their only defeat of the league stage so far.
Their 65-run victory over the Warriors demonstrated that the leading team can be beaten.
Antigua’s league work is now complete, and their focus shifts toward the playoff stage.
Barbados Tridents Become the Key Team in the Playoff Race
Few teams have experienced a more dramatic change in position than Barbados Tridents.
Earlier in the tournament, Barbados were sitting near the bottom of the standings.
They had four points from five matches and then suffered another defeat against TKR.
But two consecutive victories changed everything.
Barbados first defeated Saint Lucia Kings by eight wickets.
They then beat St Kitts & Nevis Patriots by four wickets.
Those results lifted them to:
8 matches
4 wins
4 defeats
8 points
More importantly, Barbados still have two matches remaining.
Their recovery is explained in greater detail in our Barbados Tridents vs St Kitts & Nevis Patriots standings update, where their latest victory dramatically changed the playoff equation.
Chris Green Leads Barbados to Crucial Victory
Barbados’ latest victory was particularly important.
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots were restricted to:
118 all out from 20 overs
Chris Green produced a superb spell for Barbados, taking:
4/20 from four overs
SKN were in serious trouble early in the innings before Wanindu Hasaranga counterattacked with 45 from 25 balls.
But 118 never looked like a comfortable total.
Barbados also experienced problems during the chase.
They slipped to 27/3 after five overs.
Quinton de Kock then played the stabilising innings, finishing unbeaten on 44 from 43 balls.
Sherfane Rutherford added a useful 23, while Daniel Sams finished the match with a six.
Barbados reached:
120/6 in 18 overs
to win by four wickets.
The result took them to eight points and eliminated SKN from the playoff race.
CPL 2026 Next Match: Barbados vs Jamaica
The next league match is one of the most important games remaining in CPL 2026.
Barbados Tridents vs Jamaica Kingsmen
Date: September 12, 2026
Venue: Kensington Oval, Bridgetown
Local start: 8:00 PM AST
The points situation before the match makes its importance obvious.
Jamaica Kingsmen: 8 points from 9 matches
Barbados Tridents: 8 points from 8 matches
Both have four victories.
But Barbados have one additional match remaining after this contest.
A Barbados victory would take them to 10 points.
A Jamaica victory would also take them to 10 and dramatically strengthen their qualification position.
This is effectively a direct playoff battle.
CPL 2026 Remaining League Fixtures
Only two league-stage matches remain after Guyana vs TKR.
| Date | Fixture | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| Sep 12 | Barbados Tridents vs Jamaica Kingsmen | Kensington Oval |
| Sep 13 | Barbados Tridents vs Guyana Amazon Warriors | Kensington Oval |
Both matches involve Barbados.
That gives the Tridents enormous influence over the final standings.
After the league stage, attention moves immediately to the playoffs.
CPL 2026 Playoff Schedule
The playoff phase will be played at Kensington Oval in Bridgetown.
| Date | Match | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| Sep 16 | Eliminator | Kensington Oval |
| Sep 17 | Qualifier 1 | Kensington Oval |
| Sep 18 | Qualifier 2 | Kensington Oval |
| Sep 20 | Final | Kensington Oval |
The top two teams receive an important advantage.
First and second play Qualifier 1, with the winner advancing directly to the final.
Third and fourth play the Eliminator.
The loser of the Eliminator is knocked out, while the winner faces the loser of Qualifier 1 in Qualifier 2.
Jamaica Kingsmen Face a Season-Defining Match
Jamaica Kingsmen have made an immediate impact in their first CPL season.
Their record currently stands at:
Matches: 9
Wins: 4
Losses: 5
Points: 8
Jamaica have produced some impressive performances, including victories over TKR and St Kitts & Nevis Patriots.
But their situation is now simple.
They have only one league match remaining.
And it comes against Barbados—the team directly alongside them on eight points.
A victory would move Jamaica to 10.
A defeat would leave them stuck on eight while Barbados would still have another opportunity to collect points.
That makes their final league match arguably their most important game of the season.
Saint Lucia Kings Finish on Eight Points
Saint Lucia Kings have completed all 10 league matches.
Their final record is:
Played: 10
Won: 4
Lost: 6
Points: 8
At one stage, Saint Lucia appeared well positioned.
They had eight points after seven matches.
But their campaign collapsed during the final stretch.
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots defeated them by 137 runs after scoring 235/4 and bowling Saint Lucia out for 98.
Barbados then beat them by eight wickets.
Guyana followed with a four-wicket victory.
Three consecutive defeats left Saint Lucia stranded on eight points.
The huge SKN victory proved particularly damaging, and its effect on both sides can be seen in our SKN Patriots vs St Lucia Kings standings analysis.
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots Eliminated
SKN have completed their 10-match league campaign with:
3 wins
6 defeats
1 no-result
7 points
Their season contained some extraordinary performances.
The most spectacular came against Saint Lucia.
SKN scored 235/4 and dismissed the Kings for only 98, winning by 137 runs.
They also produced one of the best chases of CPL 2026 against Barbados earlier in the tournament.
Barbados scored 217/4.
SKN responded with:
220/4 in 19.1 overs
Johnson Charles led that chase with 78 from 45 deliveries.
However, consistency remained a problem.
When SKN met Barbados again on September 10, they were bowled out for 118 and lost by four wickets.
They finish with seven points and cannot progress.
Trinbago Knight Riders End a Difficult Campaign
TKR’s CPL 2026 league campaign is also over.
Their final record is:
Played: 10
Won: 3
Lost: 7
Points: 6
That is a disappointing return for one of the competition’s biggest franchises.
There were occasional strong performances.
TKR beat Barbados twice during the season and also recorded a victory over SKN.
But seven defeats were too many.
Their final match summed up the campaign.
They could manage only 126/8 against Guyana before losing by six wickets.
Who Has Scored the Most Runs in CPL 2026?
The batting race has changed significantly since the earlier stage of the tournament.
Quinton de Kock currently leads the CPL 2026 run-scoring chart with 304 runs.
The leading group includes:
| Player | Runs |
|---|---|
| Quinton de Kock | 304 |
| Colin Munro | 294 |
| Nicholas Pooran | 283 |
| Dasun Shanaka | 281 |
| Kamil Pooran | 273 |
De Kock’s rise has coincided with Barbados’ recovery.
His 44 not out against SKN was not his most explosive innings, but it was one of his most important because Barbados were under pressure in a low-scoring chase.
He had also scored a century against SKN in their earlier meeting.
That combination of volume and match impact has pushed him to the top of the batting list.
Who Has Taken the Most Wickets in CPL 2026?
The bowling race is also tight.
Matthew Forde leads with 16 wickets.
| Player | Wickets |
|---|---|
| Matthew Forde | 16 |
| Roston Chase | 15 |
| Alzarri Joseph | 14 |
| Mohammad Nabi | 13 |
| Imran Tahir | 12 |
Only one wicket separates Forde and Chase.
Unlike the earlier stage of the competition, several leading bowlers have now completed their league campaigns, while others may still have opportunities in the playoffs.
Quinton de Kock’s Rise Is an Important CPL 2026 Story
De Kock deserves particular attention because his tournament has developed alongside Barbados’ changing fortunes.
He currently has 304 runs from eight innings.
That works out to an average above 50.
His performances against SKN alone illustrate his influence.
In the first meeting, he scored 106 from 57 balls.
In the rematch, he made 44 not out.
That means de Kock scored 150 runs across the two Barbados-SKN matches while being dismissed only once.
It is the kind of individual contribution that can become especially valuable when a team reaches the pressure stage of a tournament.
CPL 2026 Format Explained
The Caribbean Premier League 2026 features seven teams.
They are:
- Antigua & Barbuda Falcons
- Barbados Tridents
- Guyana Amazon Warriors
- Jamaica Kingsmen
- Saint Lucia Kings
- St Kitts & Nevis Patriots
- Trinbago Knight Riders
Jamaica Kingsmen are competing in the tournament for the first time.
The expanded 2026 competition contains 39 matches, including the league stage and playoffs.
Teams receive:
2 points for a win
1 point for a no-result
0 points for a defeat
When teams finish level on points, Net Run Rate can become an important separator.
Why NRR Could Decide the Final Playoff Place
The current table demonstrates why NRR matters.
Jamaica, Barbados and Saint Lucia are all on eight points.
But they do not have identical records or NRR.
Barbados still have matches remaining, meaning they can remove the NRR question entirely by collecting more points.
If they reach 10 points, they move above teams stuck on eight.
If they remain on eight, NRR becomes much more important.
That is why the Barbados-Jamaica match carries such major implications.
CPL 2026 Venues
The Caribbean Premier League moves between different islands and conditions throughout the competition.
Major CPL 2026 venues have included:
Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown
Daren Sammy Cricket Ground, Gros Islet
Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain
Warner Park, Basseterre
Guyana National Stadium, Providence
Kensington Oval, Bridgetown
Conditions have varied considerably.
Warner Park produced the extraordinary 220-run SKN chase against Barbados.
Providence has generally offered Guyana a significant home advantage.
Kensington Oval now becomes the centre of the tournament, hosting the final league games and the entire playoff phase.
Caribbean Premier League 2026 Final
The CPL 2026 final is scheduled for September 20 at Kensington Oval in Bridgetown.
Before that, three playoff matches will determine the finalists.
The Eliminator takes place on September 16.
Qualifier 1 follows on September 17.
Qualifier 2 is scheduled for September 18.
The final then takes place on September 20.
What Has Changed Since the Earlier Stage of CPL 2026?
A lot.
Guyana were previously sitting on eight points from four matches.
They now have 16 from nine.
Antigua were leading with 11 points from nine matches.
They have now completed their league campaign on 13.
Barbados had only four points.
They now have eight and control a significant part of their own qualification fate.
Saint Lucia were on eight points from seven matches.
They have finished on exactly the same total after losing their final three games.
SKN revived their campaign briefly but eventually finished on seven.
TKR could not recover and finish on six.
This is why the second half of CPL 2026 has completely changed the playoff picture.
CPL 2026 Qualification Picture
At this stage, the teams can be separated into three groups.
Leading Positions
Guyana Amazon Warriors – 16 points
Antigua & Barbuda Falcons – 13 points
Both have established themselves as the strongest teams of the league stage.
Final Playoff Battle
Jamaica Kingsmen – 8
Barbados Tridents – 8
Saint Lucia Kings – 8
Barbados and Jamaica are the key teams because they still have a direct head-to-head fixture.
League Campaign Complete
St Kitts & Nevis Patriots – 7
Trinbago Knight Riders – 6
Both are out of contention.
What to Watch Next in Caribbean Premier League 2026
The immediate focus is now on Kensington Oval.
Barbados face Jamaica in a match with enormous playoff consequences.
Both enter with eight points.
Barbados then face Guyana in the final league match.
Those two games will complete the playoff picture.
For Barbados, the equation is particularly interesting because their late recovery has given them control over their own position.
For Jamaica, there is no second opportunity after the Barbados match.
For Saint Lucia, the league campaign is already over, so they must wait for other results.
Guyana and Antigua can focus on securing the strongest possible playoff route.
The Caribbean Premier League 2026 has therefore moved from a broad seven-team race into a much narrower battle where every remaining result has immediate consequences.

Caribbean Premier League 2026: Final Update Before the Last Two League Matches
The Caribbean Premier League 2026 has reached the point where the broad playoff race has become a fight over the final positions.
Guyana Amazon Warriors have been the outstanding team, winning eight of nine matches to reach 16 points.
Antigua & Barbuda Falcons have completed their league campaign with 13.
The real uncertainty sits behind them.
Jamaica Kingsmen, Barbados Tridents and Saint Lucia Kings are all on eight points.
But Barbados still have two matches remaining.
Their first is against Jamaica—a direct rival on the same number of points.
Their second is against table-leading Guyana.
That makes Barbados the central team in the final phase of the league stage.
At the individual level, Quinton de Kock leads the batting race with 304 runs, while Matthew Forde leads the bowling chart with 16 wickets.
The next two matches will settle the league standings.
After that, the focus shifts entirely to Kensington Oval and the CPL 2026 playoffs.
