The issue regarding the name of the Caribbean Premier League franchise Red Steel has been resolved and the team will once again be called "Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel", the CPL has said.
The CPL had earlier agreed to omit the words "Trinidad & Tobago" from the name, based on a request from the Minister of Sport Anil Roberts. According to Roberts, the use of the country name infringed "on the protocols surrounding the use of the name and the sovereignty of the nation".
Haha. The Trinidad and Tobago sports minister must have gotten what he wanted. That ridiculousness about removing Trinidad from the name because all the players are not from Trinidad. Too bad they had to steal from the Red Steele.
