Roseau, Dominica (February 7, 2012): This weekend promises to be an action-packed one for cricket as the Windward Islands face Guyana at the Windsor Park Sports Stadium. The Regional 4-Day Championship continues in Dominica from Friday, February 10 to Monday, February 13, 2012 from 10:00 a.m. daily.
West Indies off-spinner and Dominica’s own Shane Shillingford, fresh from claiming six wickets for 75 runs in Jamaica last weekend, will set the pace at the Windsor Park along with Devon Smith who was also in fine form stroking 103 to score his 19th first class century. The 13-man squad will be led by Liam Sebastien (Captain) and comprises Shane Shillingford, Devon Smith, Dalton Polius, Johnson Charles, Lindon James, Keddy Lesporis, Nelon Pascal, Andre Fletcher, Kenroy Peters, Delorn Johnson, Gary Mathurin and Darren Sammy with Lockhart Sebastien (Manager) and Ian Allen (Coach).
Emmanuel Nanthan, President of the Dominica Cricket Association (DCA), says, “We encourage everyone to come out and support our Windward Islands Team. This is a great opportunity for families, cricket lovers, sports enthusiasts and, especially, young, aspiring cricketers to see Shane and Liam in action on home soil. This event is all part of the build-up to Dominica’s hosting of the historic Third Test in the Digicel Series 2012 – West Indies v Australia – scheduled to take place here from April 23-27, 2012.”
There will be a nominal entrance fee to the games. Tickets will be on sale at the gate on each day.
