UPDATE: Aussie cricket coming to Dominica
Dominicans
are waiting with high expectations within the next 24 hours to learn if
the third Digicel Test between West Indies and Australia for 23 Carded April 2012 by the Guyana National Stadium at Windsor Park, Dominica can be switched.
A
release from the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) proposes to announce
its position on the third Digicel Test after consultation with other
stakeholders.
The
change was necessary because of an unresolved impasse between the
Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) and an interim management committee to manage
affairs of cricket in the country.
Prime
Minister Roosevelt Skerrit took to the airwaves today announced that
the game was moved to Dominica - as he had previously announced this at a
meeting in his Dominica Labour Party in La Plaine on Sunday.
But to date there is no official word from the WICB on this topic.
Trinidad
and Tobago Cricket Board (TTCB) Director of the WICB, said Dr Allen
Sammy Express newspaper on Sunday that Australia was a change in testing
an absolute last resort.
On
whether the WICB was considered the test to another location, Sammy
said: "We have alternatives, we must look at all the possibilities ..
"We
have no problems with the IMC as a consultant, but it must be the SCI
control of cricket in Guyana to be. The first option is to keep the game
in Guyana. If they (the dead) can not be solved, We alternatives sooner rather than later see, "added Sammy.
"We
want a solution. We want to play there, but we are looking for options
and a decision for the good of the game, Guyana, and the people in the
Caribbean," Sammy closed.
Chairman Emmanuel Nanthan Dominica and the Windward Islands Cricket Board and a director of the WICB.
He
told Dominica News Online that "the possibilities that the game is
moved to Dominica is very high, so we take the necessary measures."
