Defending champions Salt Pond Breakers will lock horns with Grenadines Divers in the fourth match of the Vincy Premier League 2021 at the Arnos Vale Ground in Kingstown on Sunday, May 16.

Led by Sunil Ambris, the Salt Pond Breakers were simply unstoppable last season, finishing the league stage as table-toppers with seven wins from eight matches. The Breakers later defeated La Soufriere Hikers by 19 runs in the final to win the inaugural edition of the T10 tournament in 2020.

On the other hand, Grenadines Divers were pretty inconsistent in the last edition of the tournament, winning two of their eight encounters in the group phase. They managed to qualify for the semi-finals, only to be knocked out by the eventual champions.
