St Kitts and Nevis Patriots claimed their first-ever Caribbean Premier League (CPL) title as they defeated the Saint Lucia Kings by three wickets in a closely contested encounter at Warner Park here.

The Saint Lucia Kings won the toss and chose to bat. Despite losing wickets at key stages of the game, they built a total around the batting of Roston Chase (43 off 40 balls), who stabilised the innings, allowing the likes of Rahkeem Cornwall (43 off 32) and Keemo Paul (39 off 21) to play with attacking intent and guide them to 159/7.
