Champions League 20/20 runners up Trinidad and Tobago are expected to arrive home tonight after their good performance in India.
The team which left India yesterday should arrive in Barbados this afternoon for a connecting flight home.
The Ministry of Sport has planned a welcome home reception for the team but President of the T&T Cricket Board Deryck Murray has asked the government officials to keep the welcoming function brief so that the players can get home as soon as possible.
The players are required to be back at the airport tomorrow morning at 5:00 a.m. to go the Guyana for the West Indies Cricket Board President’s Cup, starting Wednesday.
T&T will go into action in the regional President’s Cup tournament on Wednesday, when they take on Jamaica at Providence.
From their Champions League squad, T&T have dropped all rounder Rayad Emrit and off spinner Sunil Narine and included leg spinner Imran Khan.
T&T are the defending President’s Cup champions.
