West Indies all-rounder Fabian Allen has been ruled of the impending Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2020 after he missed his flight from Jamaica to Barbados. Due to travel restrictions in Trinidad due to COVID-19 pandemic, the scheduled chartered flight on Monday was the only way he could enter Trinidad and now will be missing an entire month of cricket action.&nbsp;

Allen, who was retained by franchise St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in the CPL draft, was due to reach Barbados before boarding the charter to Trinidad. However, the Windies all-rounder was late to reach the airport and missed the flight.

"Unfortunately, there was some confusion with his understanding of the flight details and he missed the flight. We explored all possibilities, but due to the pandemic and travel restrictions in Trinidad, the charter flight on Monday was the only way he could enter the country," ESPNCricinfo quoted Allen's agent as saying.
