Raj Singh says BMC does not need permission from GCB

Chairman of Big Man Cricket, Raj Singh

Chairman of the Big Man Cricket (BMC) committee, Raj Singh, said yesterday that the tournament will go ahead as planned as they do not need permission from the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB).

Singh made the disclosure yesterday during a press conference at the Oasis Café, Carmichael Street.

The GCB recently issued a notice saying that the tournament was not sanctioned by them.

However Singh is contending that the tournament will go on in spite of the notice, citing a five-page legal opinion which suggests that no approval is required from the GCB.
