Devers also a former Berbice Senior Inter-County Cricketer, represented the Bermine Cricket Club in Berbice’s first division cricket for many years and has contributed tremendously towards providing media coverage for cricket in the ancient county.
Several top cricketers are expected to be on show as Albion will include the likes of Test players Narsingh Deonarine, Devendra Bishoo and Sewnarine Chattergoon together with Test hopeful Veerasammy Permaul and the hard hitting Jonathan Foo.
Bermine on the other will be counting on players such as Anthony D’Andrade, Steven Latcha, Eugene La Fleur, Jamaal La Fleur and Devon Clements.
Meanwhile, the management of the Albion and Bermine Clubs are calling on other clubs partaking in Berbice’s first division cricket this weekend to do likewise to assist Devers in this time of need.
The Edinburgh Cricket Club has already agreed to raise funds in their Ramcharitar 50 Over first division match against Bush Lot United Rising Star on Sunday at the Edinburgh Ground.
