The Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) has announced that Fun88 has become the official partner for its new 2020 season, the first elite T20 tournament since the outbreak of COVID-19 disrupted the global sporting calendar.
The month-long T20 cricket tournament (18 August – 20 September) is known to be one of the most popular cricket leagues in the world featuring some of the best teams such as the Guyana Amazon Warriors and the Jamaica Tallawahs.

The CPL gets underway in a bio-secure environment behind closed doors in Trinidad and Tobago on 18 August and will see 33 matches being played at two venues in the country. The teams who will be competing for the 2020 title will include current Champions Barbados Tridents along with the Guyana Amazon Warriors, Jamaica Tallawahs, St Kitts & Nevis Patriots, St Lucia Zouks and Trinbago Knight Riders.
A Fun88 Spokesperson shared: “We are delighted to partner with the Caribbean Premier League which shares the same ethos as Fun88. We believe in collaborating and promoting sports leagues across all formats and geographies, and this partnership will deliver that message across the world.
“Cricket is a well-loved sport in many of our target markets and we hope that we will elevate and cement our presence in these markets via this long-term association. We are certain that some thrilling matches during this league will keep the fans engaged, both pre-game and in-play.”
