The winners of the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL) Talent Search have been confirmed with two up-and-coming presenters from the Caribbean set to be part of the tournament’s broadcast team in 2024.
Whitney Husbands from Trinidad & Tobago and Chloe Dantes from Saint Lucia are the two winning contestants, and they will be part of the on screen talent who will highlight the fun and atmosphere that makes the CPL so special.
Last year the tournament had a total viewership of 853.5 million, so this opportunity gives both Whitney and Chloe the chance to showcase their talent to a massive global audience.
Paul Pritchett-Brown, CPL’s Head of Production said: “We were overwhelmed with the number and quality of entrants that we had for the CPL Talent Search, and it was hard to get this down to a final two. But in Whitney and Chloe we have two really exciting broadcasting talents, and we are looking forward to watching their careers continue to grow from this point onwards.”
Chloe Dantes said: “I am absolutely delighted to be the winner of the CPL Talent Search. I honestly can’t express how excited I am to be involved in this incredible opportunity. I am immensely grateful to CPL for running this initiative, giving up-and-coming presenters like myself a chance to breakthrough and really show our talents. Thank you so much once again for this amazing platform and the chance to be a part of something so special. This opportunity is practically a dream come true and I can’t wait to jump into this incredible journey with you all.”
Whitney Husbands said: “I cannot say how much I am thankful, grateful and humbled for this opportunity. This CPL initiative is going to showcase the talent of the Caribbean and I am honoured to be the person representing Trinidad & Tobago. We are going to show to the world what Trinidad & Tobago is all about. I am here ready to go, and I am bringing the whole of Trinidad & Tobago with me. Are you ready?!”
