No need to get nervous -Min. Norton tells CPL fans

May 30, 2019 Sports

The Hon. Minister of Social Cohesion, Dr. George Norton is assuring local fans that Guyana remains an integral part of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
Dr. Norton, who also holds responsibility for Culture, Youth and Sport, said that there is absolutely no need for persons to panic over the delayed fixture of matches for the Guyana National Stadium, as the tournament will see games being played here.
A similar delay presented itself last year, for CPL 2018, however when the agreements were finally signed, Guyana was able to secure, for the first time ever, two playoff games, in addition to five exciting matches.
“There can be no CPL tournament where Guyana is not a host country. Cricket is part of who we are. In addition to having one of the best teams in the tournament, we have some of the most passionate and loyal cricket fans,” Minister Norton pointed out.
Minister Norton is urging fans to be patient and not get deterred by some of the negativity being peddled on social media.
“CPL will be played here,” Dr. Norton reassured.
