In a landmark move in the history of CPL, experienced all-rounder Jason Holder will leave his home franchise, Barbados Royals, after 13 years, to join St Kitts & Nevis Patriots (STKNP) for the upcoming season. As part of the trades and transfers before the CPL draft next month, STKNP also acquired middle-order batter Alick Athanaze while trading middle-order basher Sherfane Rutherford to the Royals.
