Out with the Jaguars, in with the Eagles!

– GCB changes Franchise team name again

The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) has sought to make another name change to Guyana’s National Cricket team, just mere weeks after readjusting the ‘Guyana Jaguars’ name to the ‘Guyana Amazon Jaguars’.
In a missive on Tuesday afternoon, the GCB shared not only the reason for the change, but also the team’s spanking new name. the GCB statement read:
“The Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) wishes to inform the general public that it was brought to its attention that the current name of the Guyana Regional Franchise Cricket Team, the Guyana Amazon Jaguars, has caused some level of confusion with the Caribbean Premier League Franchise Team, the Guyana Amazon Warriors.
For the sake of clarity and to avoid any further and unnecessary confusion, GCB has made a decision to rename the Guyana Regional Franchise Cricket Team. The new name is ‘GUYANA HARPY EAGLES’.”
Commencing today, a 30-man Guyanese team will commence the first of 3 Best v Best red-ball games at the Albion Community Centre Ground, as the Guyana Harpy Eagles prepare for the upcoming Regional 4- Day tournament.
