Clubs competing in this year’s State Insurance Company Super 40 cricket competition to be put on by the Antigua and Barbuda Cricket Association (ABCA) starting January 16, must take responsibility for both the safety of their players and officials while making sure that all of the stipulated Covid-19 protocols are followed.
This is according to president of the association,
Leon Rodney, who said that although the body would have prepared the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground for the staging of the recently held 10 Splash Cricket Tournament, the 10 clubs set to host matches in the Super 40 must ensure that all the necessary mechanisms are in place at their respective venues.

Caribbean Union Bank (CUB) Bethesda Golden Eagles grabbed the final spot in the final round of the Antigua and Barbuda Cricket Association (ABCA) 10 Splash Cricket Tournament in dramatic fashion on Wednesday night, edging an aggressive Empire Nation on the “count back” rule after scores at the end of their match, played at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground, were tied at 78.
This meant that officials were left with no other option but to enforce the “count back” rule which allowed them to consider the amount of runs scored by each team in the 10th over of their innings. The team scoring the most runs are declared winners.
