Guyana bids for WT20 World Cup matches

SPORTS authorities here are confident Guyana will get the nod as one of the official host venues for this year’s Women’s Twenty20 World Cup.
The country has put in a bid for the government-owned national stadium to host matches during the November 3-24 showpiece and believes the odds are in its favour.

“I rather suspect because of the fact that the stadium is owned by government and because the stadium has no branding on it, this puts Guyana in a position where we can very likely be one of the four to host the Women’s International World Cup,” said Director of Sport Christopher Jones.
The Guyana National Stadium at Providence was one of 11 venues inspected by the International Cricket Council (ICC) last November, in preparation for the upcoming tournament.
