Article by May 21, 2021
Amidst widespread debate over the likely start of the 2021 Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) domestic season in light of Covid-19 pandemic concerns, August 7 has been identified for the first ball to be bowled in a limited overs format only.
But there will be a “special” Competition for top local players as early as July with a Best v Best featuring three four-day matches on dates to be determined.
These decisions were confirmed today by the BCA Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Roland Toppin, following a Board meeting on Wednesday.
Listed as “Scenario 4”, Toppin pointed out that there will be a 45-over Cup Championship, embracing the Elite and First division teams; a 40-over Shield Competition for the Intermediate division and a 35-over Plate for the Second division, with nine rounds of matches per competition.
