GCB had nothing to do with prices

Bissoondyal Singh

President of the Guyana Cricket Board Bissoondyal Singh yesterday lamented the poor turnout of spectators for the Guyana leg of the current tour of the West Indies by India and suggested that the cost of tickets might have been responsible for the low turnout.

In an invited comment the GCB president said of the turnout for the second and Third T20 Internationals held at the Providence National Stadium..”It was average and could be better, possibly sold out.” Following victory over the India team minus Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the first T20 Internationals in Trinidad and Tobago the two teams travelled to Guyana for the second and third T20I where interest was at an all time high especially following the West Indies team’s poor performances in the preceding Ttest and One Day series.
