“We will stick to the same team which had been playing all throughout the Vodafone Premier League season.

“There are 22 players in the side with few experienced players like Taniela Waqa, Nikhil Chand and Antonia Tuivuna.

“We will try to win the tournament this year although we are aware the competition will be tough in the pool stages against Dreketin Ba and Nadi.
