The Kares One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast has had all this season – wickets, runs, and pure excitement.
Kaieteur Sports – Three down and one more to go from a zone perspective in the third Kares One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast as the final zone champion will be crowned in the Cinderella County of Essequibo this weekend.
Montra Jaguars (Berbice), Eccles All-Stars (East Bank Demerara/West Demerara), and Titans All-Stars (East Coast/ Georgetown) are the three-zone champions, and attention is now on who will fill the final spot.
Matches in Essequibo will be held on Saturday, July 26, at Pomona Ground and Hampton Court, while on Sunday, all the action moves to Anna Regina Ground.
