CPL 2016: Preview of all the 6 teams

Jamaica Tallawahs:

The Jamaica Tallawahs are the representative teams of Jamaica in the CPL. They play their home games at Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica. Hollywood actor Gerard Butler happens to be a cricket buff or perhaps just a smart businessman; he has acquired equity interest in the franchise. Tallawahs happens to be the only one to have fielded all 11 local players in a match in the CPL. Unlike the IPL, the CPL permits such a squad to play the match.

The team has a great international roster featuring Sri Lankan Kumar Sangakkara and Dale Steyn among others. More than anything else, the team has the Gayle force blowing in its favor; Chris Gayle has been one of the frontrunners in the side’s successful stints in the 3 seasons.

Jamaica Tallawahs squad:

Timroy Allen, Jonathan Foo, Imad Wasim, Andre McCarthy, Garey Mathurin, Alex Ross, Kumar Sangakkara, Oshane Thomas, Kesrick Williams, Nkrumah Bonner, Chris Gayle, Jon-Russ Jaggesar, Dale Steyn, Rovman Powell, Andre Russell, Shakib Al Hasan, Chadwick Walton
