Clearly disappointed with their semifinal performance, West Berbice and Upper Corentyne will surely seek to improve and win the third place. West Berbice will have in their lineup Greisan Grant, Parmanand Ramdhan and Akeem Miller. Upper Corentyne will have in their lineup captain Deon Esau, Jameel Jackman and Rajiv Bickram.
Both games commence at 9:00AM and the first innings will be limited to 55 overs per side. The winners will take home a trophy and $40,000, runner up $25,000, third place $15,000 and fourth place winner $10,000. Man of the finals will receive $3,000 and a trophy.
