Ramsingh welcomed the growing involvement of private companies. Premier Insurance and Montra Jaguars join V-Net Communications in establishing “franchises” within the competition.
“We aim to foster investment in community cricket from both private and public sectors,” Ramsingh explained.
“This benefits players while providing fans with high-quality entertainment. While we’re still working on the ideal player reward structure, we’re on the right track. We believe this tournament has the potential to become a major regional event, with international aspirations in the future.”
The final list of participating players will be revealed after July 28.
The winner’s purse has been increased to G$1.5 million, with G$500,000 for the runner-up and G$250,000 for each losing semifinalist.
