Exhilarating action promised in Kares One Guyana T10 Blast

The Kares One Guyana Tapeball Blast is set to ignite the cricketing world with a knockout-style tournament, as organisers unveiled the highly-anticipated fixtures on Saturday.
With a straight knockout format, teams will have no margin for error, as it’s “do or die from ball one”, according to the tournament organisers.
The action kicks off on August 3 with the intense round-of-32 matches, spread across the Demerara Cricket Club (DCC); Police Sports Club (PSC) and Queen’s College Grounds.
Matches are scheduled for 09:00h, 11:00h, 13:00h, and 15:00h.
The surviving teams will clash in the round-of-16 on August 4, also at DCC and PSC Grounds.

 The final eight teams will then battle it out at the Enmore Community Centre Ground on August 11 to secure their spots in the semi-finals and the grand finale, which will be held on August 25 at the National Stadium.
Tournament organiser John Ramsingh expressed his anticipation for the tournament, highlighting the fierce competition expected from the participating teams. “With so many established community teams involved, we’re expecting some explosive cricket,” Ramsingh said. “The fans are in for a treat.”
Ramsingh also acknowledged the impact of the weather on preparations, but expressed satisfaction with the teams’ continued training and the ongoing support from corporate Guyana.
The winner of the tournament will take home $1.5 million, with the runners-up securing $500,000 and the losing semi-finalists each receiving $250,000.
