AT a recent meeting of the Executive Committee of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), it was unanimously agreed to postpone this highly-touted National T20 Franchise League that was scheduled to commence this month prior to the New Zealand Test match. 

The GCB also regrets the fact that Guyana has again lost out on hosting international cricket at our world famous National Stadium at Providence with the transfer of the New Zealand Test match to Barbados, but this decision was totally outside the control of the GCB.
However, we do understand, respect and appreciate the position taken by our parent Board, the West Indies Cricket Board, and trust that we would be able to make full use of our stadium in the near future for the hosting of international and regional cricket.
The National T20 League would have seen at least 90 of our top local cricketers from around the country and about 20 regional cricketers participate in an 8-team tournament over a 10-day period and discussions had already commenced with sponsors and very competitive teams identified.
Everything has now been put on hold due to the very uncertain climate surrounding our cricket administration vis-a-vis the new Cricket Administration Bill recently passed in Parliament.
We thank those entities and individuals who submitted expressions of interest and promise that your correspondence would be placed on record and given priority when we are in a position to launch our league.
We do apologise to the entire cricketing public at large but these are issues totally outside of our control and the GCB would advise the public via the media or its website on the future plans for this T20 League and our future plans for cricket administration in general.
