Two teams will clash head-on in the much-anticipated finale of the Price Is Right/Upper Corentyne Cricket Association (UCCA) Second Division T20 Blast cricket tournament on Sunday, October 12, 2025, at the No. 69 Vikings Ground.
The finalists are defending champions No. 72 Cut N Load and No. 72 All Stars. The final is set to be a grudge match, with both teams hailing from No. 72 Village. The teams are brimming with confidence and have been hard at practice. The action starts at 13:00h.
The tournament is financed and solely sponsored by Danesh Roopnarine of the Price Is Right Supermarket, which has several branches along the Corentyne Coast.
It is the largest in terms of sponsorship for any second-division tournament in Berbice and Guyana – and arguably any cricket competition in the country. Major investment has been poured into the competition, totalling over $4.5 million.
However, there will be massive rewards at stake in the finals, totalling over $1 million, including cash, trophies, gear, equipment, and other incentives, among others. The champion team will walk away with $425,000 and a trophy, while the runner-up will collect $225,000 and a trophy. The losing semi-finalists will each receive $50,000 and a trophy.
The best batsman, best bowler, and MVP in the final will each receive a new bat, a pair of boots, a trophy, and $10,000.
The tournament’s top-performing wicketkeeper, the batsman with the most runs, and the bowler with the most wickets will also receive a pair of gloves, a pair of batting pads, and a pair of cricket boots, respectively.
Medals will be presented to all the players in the final. The sponsor has also provided 15 complete uniforms, including caps, to the 18 participating teams.
To add to the day’s excitement, two female exhibition matches will precede the final. The final will be live-streamed on multiple platforms.
Following the final, a concert and super show are planned, featuring several local artistes.
According to the UCCA and the sponsor, the competition is being held with the aim of improving cricket within the Upper Corentyne area.
The competition is being coordinated by former first-division player and President of the UCCA, Junior Blair.
