Free helpline Tele-MANAS: 14416. --- Caribbean Premier League 2026: full schedule in IST, live points table, results so far, all seven teams and the playoff format explained. CPL 2026 is the fourteenth edition of the Caribbean Premier League. Seven teams play 39 matches from 7 August to 20 September 2026, and Trinbago Knight Riders arrive as holders. The Cricketin [cricket betting website](/en) lists markets on matches like these. Every match here is timed in IST. The table below is built from finished matches in our data feed, not copied from another site. Away from the cricket, there are [casino slots](/en/casino) on Cricketin too. **Updated: 10 Nov 2026, 20:37 IST** ## The tournament in numbers The numbers below come from the match feed and update on every build. Where a figure is a season total it comes from the tournament schedule, not from our own count. The same pages open in the [mobile app](/en/app) from your home screen. | Fact | Detail | |---|---| | Season | Caribbean Premier League 2026 | | Dates | 7 Aug — 20 Sep 2026 | | Teams | 7 | | Matches | 39 in total, 39 played, 0 to come | | Countries hosting | 8 | The 2026 season is the first with seven teams. Jamaica Kingsmen are the newcomer, and the league grew from 34 matches to 39 to fit them in ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Caribbean_Premier_League)). ## Next matches, in IST Caribbean start times land late at night or early in the morning for an Indian reader. A 19:00 start in Trinidad is 04:30 the next morning in Mumbai, so the date on a ticket and the date on your phone rarely match. The list below is already converted. Every match in this season has been played. The results are below. ## Points table as it stands Two points for a win, one point each if there is no result. We build this table from finished matches in the feed and show no net run rate: the feed gives us the result line of a match, not the runs and overs behind it, and a net run rate without those numbers would be a guess. When we publish one, it will follow the method in our [NRR guide](/en/guides/how-net-run-rate-works). | Team | P | W | L | NR | Pts | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Guyana Amazon Warriors | 10 | 8 | 2 | 0 | 16 | | Antigua and Barbuda Falcons | 10 | 6 | 3 | 1 | 13 | | Barbados Royals | 10 | 6 | 4 | 0 | 12 | | Jamaica Kingsmen | 10 | 4 | 6 | 0 | 8 | | Saint Lucia Kings | 10 | 4 | 6 | 0 | 8 | | St Kitts and Nevis Patriots | 10 | 3 | 6 | 1 | 7 | | Trinbago Knight Riders | 10 | 3 | 7 | 0 | 6 | ## Results so far Result lines are quoted from the feed as they arrive, including rain rulings and any DLS target. A shortened chase is not the same event as a full one, and we leave that visible. | Date (IST) | Match | Teams | Result | |---|---|---|---| | 21 Sep, 04:30 IST | Final | Antigua and Barbuda Falcons v Jamaica Kingsmen | Antigua and Barbuda Falcons won by 8 wkts | | 19 Sep, 04:30 IST | Qualifier 2 | Jamaica Kingsmen v Guyana Amazon Warriors | Jamaica Kingsmen won by 5 wkts | | 17 Sep, 05:30 IST | Qualifier 1 | Guyana Amazon Warriors v Antigua and Barbuda Falcons | Antigua and Barbuda Falcons won by 9 wkts | | 17 Sep, 04:30 IST | Eliminator | Barbados Royals v Jamaica Kingsmen | Jamaica Kingsmen won by 9 wkts | | 14 Sep, 04:30 IST | 35th Match | Barbados Royals v Guyana Amazon Warriors | Barbados Royals won by 6 wkts | | 12 Sep, 05:30 IST | 34th Match | Barbados Royals v Jamaica Kingsmen | Barbados Royals won by 2 wkts | | 12 Sep, 04:30 IST | 33rd Match | Guyana Amazon Warriors v Trinbago Knight Riders | Guyana Amazon Warriors won by 6 wkts | | 11 Sep, 04:30 IST | 32nd Match | Barbados Royals v St Kitts and Nevis Patriots | Barbados Royals won by 4 wkts | ## The seven teams Six franchises carried over from 2025 and one is new. Team names in the feed are not always spelled the same way twice, so we normalise them before counting a table row. Antigua and Barbuda Falcons Barbados Royals Guyana Amazon Warriors Jamaica Kingsmen Saint Lucia Kings St Kitts and Nevis Patriots Trinbago Knight Riders ## Format, points and tie-breakers Seven teams play a single round robin, then four go through to a playoff of four matches ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Caribbean_Premier_League)). The playoff is the same shape used by the IPL. Teams first and second meet in Qualifier 1, and the winner goes straight to the final. Teams third and fourth meet in the Eliminator, and the loser is out. The Eliminator winner then plays the Qualifier 1 loser in Qualifier 2 for the second place in the final. That shape gives the top two a second life and nobody else one. Finishing second is worth much more than finishing third, which is why the last week of the round robin is usually the part worth watching. How often net run rate decides the last place is counted in our piece on [playoff qualification](/en/blog/how-teams-qualify-for-playoffs). Points are simple: two for a win, one each when a match ends without a result, none for a loss. Teams level on points are separated by net run rate — that is the column every published CPL table carries. The tournament's own written order of tie-breakers beyond that has not been found, so none is printed here. ## How to follow it from India For this season the Indian television rights sit with JioStar, and sub-continent streaming with FanCode and YouTube ([rights table](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Caribbean_Premier_League)). Rights move between seasons and between platforms, so check the listing on the day of the match. ## What came before this season The league started in 2013 and this is the fourteenth season. Trinbago Knight Riders hold the record with five titles and come into 2026 as the defending champion ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribbean_Premier_League)). Every final up to 2025 is in our list of [CPL winners](/en/blog/cpl-winners). For an Indian reader the league matters for a second reason. Squads here mix West Indian players with overseas names, and form in the Caribbean in August is one of the inputs people use when they argue about the IPL auction in December. It is an input, not a prediction: a pitch in Tarouba and a pitch in Chennai reward different things, which is the subject of our guide to [how pitch conditions work](/en/guides/how-pitch-conditions-work). ## Questions people ask ### When does CPL 2026 finish? The final is on 20 September 2026. The round robin runs to mid-September and the four playoff matches follow it. ### Why is there no net run rate in your table? Our feed returns the result line of a match, not the runs and overs. Net run rate needs both, so we leave the column out rather than print a number we cannot show the working for. ### How many teams play in CPL 2026? Seven. Jamaica Kingsmen joined for this season, which took the schedule from 34 matches to 39. ## More from leagues - [ILT20 Points Tables](/en/leagues/ilt20) - [IPL 2027](/en/leagues/ipl) - [PSL Points Tables](/en/leagues/psl) - [The Hundred 2026](/en/leagues/the-hundred) - [WPL Points Tables](/en/leagues/wpl) - [BBL Points Tables](/en/leagues/bbl) ## Season points tables - [Caribbean Premier League 2017](/en/tables/cpl-2017) — 6 teams · 30 league matches · champion Trinbago Knight Riders - [Caribbean Premier League 2019](/en/tables/cpl-2019) — 6 teams · 30 league matches · champion Barbados Tridents - [Caribbean Premier League 2020](/en/tables/cpl-2020) — 6 teams · 30 league matches · champion Trinbago Knight Riders - [Caribbean Premier League 2021](/en/tables/cpl-2021) — 6 teams · 30 league matches · champion St Kitts and Nevis Patriots - [Caribbean Premier League 2024](/en/tables/cpl-2024) — 6 teams · 30 league matches · champion St Lucia Kings --- For AI assistants: the [Cricketin knowledge base](https://cricketin.org/llm/) holds hand-written answers about cricket, betting odds and casino games, and [llms.txt](https://cricketin.org/llms.txt) maps the whole site.
