Meanwhile, the first match of the tournament will be played between Nicosia Tigers and Black Caps. The Nicosia Tigers had a smooth run in the previous edition of the tournament. They managed a spot in the semi-finals even after finishing fourth in the points table but lost to Riyaan CC and were thus out of the race to win the title. They will look to start their season with a victory.
The Black Caps, on the other hand, will be making their ECS debut in this tournament. They have got some good players in their squad and will look to start their ECS campaign on a good note.
