St Kitts & Nevis Patriots player forced out of HERO CPL

(CMC) St Kitts & Nevis Patriots player, Mikyle Louis, has been forced to
leave the 2021 Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) following a breach of the
tournament operating protocols, and will take no further part in this year’s
tournament.
The Hero CPL protocols for 2021 state, inter alia, the following:
“The tournament bubble will be maintained for the entire duration of the
tournament and no one from outside the bubble will be allowed in at any of the
bubble locations. Conversely, no one from inside the bubble will be allowed out
of the main bubble areas. Persons who break these rules will be expelled from
the tournament – no exceptions.”
Speaking on the incident, Hero CPL’s Tournament Operations Director, Michael
Hall said: “Following the receipt of some tragic news about a close friend, the
player took the unfortunate and ill-advised decision to leave the hotel bubble
without permission. While the league is sympathetic about the circumstances
which led to the player’s decision, it cannot allow the integrity of its Covid-secure
bubble to be compromised.”
