By Michaelangelo Jacobus
The rapidly approaching T20 tournament, the Global Super League (GSL) has evoked lingering questions with respect to who will be footing the bill for the hosting of the inaugural edition in Guyana. To this end, Stabroek Sport sought some answers and found out that the eye-catching US$1M prize pool will be funded by funds from ticket sales, TV rights and sponsorship.
This newspaper reached out to Peter Miller, Head of PR and Communications at GSL who cleared the air surrounding the financial aspect of hosting the tournament.
“The GSL is a private enterprise and they will be paying for the costs from revenues generated from TV rights, sponsorship and ticket sales”, Miller noted.
