Rain hampers GCA matches

The weather pattern in the city over the last two days has affected the Georgetown Cricket Association (GCA) from hosting several key matches at the Under 17 and first division levels. Thus all GCA matches have been called off until further notice.

The Guyana Diabetic Association/ PAHO T20 semifinals which was scheduled for today at the Demerara Cricket Club (DCC) Ground was called off late Saturday afternoon after the Chairman of the Competition Committee of the GCA, Shaun Massiah, said after making several inquiries it was understood that the weather is not expected to change and even if it does grounds would be too affected to afford play.

Due to the semifinal postponement, the final which was slated for Monday will also be played on a new date.

Meanwhile, when the University of Guyana (UG) and Transport Sports Club (TSC) teams arrived at the Malteenoes Sports Club (MSC) venue for play on Saturday it was visible that there would be no play due to a wet outfield caused by overnight and early morning showers.

Massiah said the GCA will update teams of the new dates set for these matches in the upcoming week.
