n the whole the cricket was good: exciting, no. Only the second Guyana/Tridents match had some sauce. It seems that most of the teams were just too laid back. The atmosphere, however, at the Stadium was refreshing. People seemed to have had a great time. But, the numerous complaints I overheard was that the teams were not trying their very best. I personally, at times, took a nap. I hope in the future CPL games will be brought to the USA, and play would be more invigorating.
The four teams that qualified; any is good enough to win the tournament. They all have played a mixed bag of cricket. Sometimes they were hot, sometimes they were cold. But the winners will be the one that endure to the end. The team that can put it all together at the end will be the ultimate winners. Good luck to all teams.
Jamaica Tallawah all the way

This is typical Trinidad Knight Riders. Known for slow start, but once winding up as they are now, they will be hard to beat in all of their remaining matches.
