A new cricket tournament will be launched in Guyana from November 26, and will run until December 7, 2024 with five teams from five different countries set to compete for a significant prize of US$1 million.
The event will feature the Guyana Amazon Warriors and four other established T20 teams from around the world.
This will be South America’s first standalone cricket event. It is sanctioned by Cricket West Indies and is fully supported by the Government of Guyana, who will be a key stakeholder in the tournament.
The event will feature a mini league of 11 matches, with each team playing four matches and the top two teams progressing to the final. All matches will take place at the Guyana National Stadium in Providence, with the event set to take place annually featuring different teams from around the world who would be invited to take part each season.

The President of the Cooperative Republic of Guyana, Mohammed Irfaan Ali, said: “The Global Super League has the full support of the Government of Guyana as we build a world-class sports tourism product. Cricket is part of our cultural history, it is that unifying force, part of our heritage and an integral part of our strategic objective in economic diversification with a strong emphasis on tourism. As Guyana positions itself as a global shaper in the energy, food and climate landscape, we will use this platform to bring a world-class tournament to our shores.”
The Chairman of the Global Super League, Sir Clive Lloyd, said: “I’d like to welcome cricket fans from around the world to this exciting new event. The passion for cricket in Guyana rivals that of fans anywhere, and we look forward to celebrating our love of the game and our rich and vibrant country with both those visiting in person and watching from around the world. I would like to thank His Excellency, Dr Mohammed Irfaan Ali for his vision of a new cricket event for Guyana, one that will captivate the world.”
