Through a statement, the company confirmed that Chris Gayle, Kieron Pollard, Dwayne Bravo, Sunil Narine, Darren Sammy and Marlon Samuels will all return.

According to the Caribbean Premier League’s Director of Cricket Tom Moody, they are delighted to be welcoming back the icon players to the CPL this season.

Guyana Amazon Warriors franchise player Sunil Narine, said “I thoroughly enjoyed playing for the Amazon Warriors last year in what was a hugely competitive and fun tournament. I hope we can go one better than last year and give the people of Guyana something to celebrate.”
