Recency Bias — Scoring Is Trending Up
Looking at the dates: 3 of the top 10 totals were posted in 2023–2025, and specifically 2 of the top 5 came in 2024 alone. This strongly suggests CPL scoring has escalated significantly in recent seasons. The reasons strongly could be the shorter boundaries, flatter pitches, or more aggressive batting approaches league-wide, consistent with broader global T20 trends.
Basseterre Dominates as a Batting Paradise
| Ground | Appearances in Top ~35 |
|---|---|
| Basseterre | 14 |
| Providence | 6 |
| Kingston | 3 |
| Port of Spain | 4 |
| Gros Islet | 4 |
Basseterre (Warner Park, St Kitts) is by far the most common venue for big totals.
This points to it being CPL’s most batting-friendly ground, likely due to short boundaries and a flat, high-scoring pitch.
