All rounder Kevon Cop­per says T&T was able to make the West In­dies proud de­spite not reach­ing the se­mi-fi­nals of the 2011 Nokia Cham­pi­ons League in In­dia. T&T failed to make the semis af­ter win­ning two and los­ing two of their group match­es. They be­gan with a last ball loss to the Mum­bai In­di­ans and fol­lowed with a Su­per Over loss to the New South Wales Blues.

How­ev­er, they re­bound­ed with two vic­to­ries over the de­fend­ing cham­pi­ons Chen­nai Su­per Kings and the Cape Co­bras but it was not enough to put them in­to the semis as they fin­ished third on four points. Mov­ing along from their group were NSW (6 points) and Mum­bai In­di­ans (5 points). Coop­er who starred in both wins said: "We did not make it in­to the se­mi-fi­nals but we flew the West In­dies flag high. We showed peo­ple that we can be com­pet­i­tive and ac­tu­al­ly win match­es."

T&T fin­ished as run­ners-up in the in­au­gur­al tour­na­ment in 2009 and Guyana who played in the 2010 tour­na­ment in South Africa failed to win a match. Coop­er con­tin­ued: "I think we made our coun­try and the fans proud with our per­for­mance. Coop­er said he thor­ough­ly en­joyed his time in In­dia. "I re­al­ly en­joyed my time and my crick­et is bet­ter off for it. I am now look­ing for­ward to play­ing in the re­gion­al 50 overs com­pe­ti­tion and do­ing well. With a num­ber of our play­ers miss­ing for that tour­na­ment, I will have more re­spon­si­bil­i­ty and I am look­ing for­ward to it and look­ing to keep build­ing my game."
