A number of regional and local cricketers are set to go on show this evening in a Guyana All-Star versus a Caribbean All-Star matchup at the Guyana National Stadium, in a humanitarian gesture to raise funds for hurricane relief after hurricanes Irma and Maria ravished parts of the region recently.
The match is set to bowl off from 17:00hrs under the theme ‘Cricket Cares’ which is the brainchild of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), in collaboration with Carib Beer and Keem’s Foundation.
Speaking at a press conference yesterday at the Guyana Marriott Hotel, Guyana skipper Leon Johnson touched on the humanitarian aspect while his counterpart Rayad Emrit spoke of the challenges of playing in Guyana.
