Don Miguel Sixes final today

The finals of the very popular Don Miguel Sixes tournament will take place today at St George’s College Recreation Ground in Barataria. A large crowd is expected to be on hand to see the most competitive windball cricket series in the land. 

The semifinals were played last night and the winners of the finals in tonight’s game will take home $6,000. There will be a third place play-off in both the men and women categories from 6 pm, to be followed by the finals of the men and women competition from 7 pm.

League organiser Inshan Ali said crowds have been coming out in large numbers to view the games and he expects that to even double tonight. He added that in the past players like Sunil Narine and Keiron Pollard have played in the men’s competition and on the women’s side Deandra Dottin and Stacy Ann King are among a host of national and West Indies players who have played.
