Ganga grateful for annual charity T20 support

FORMER national cricket captain Daren Ganga is grateful after the successful staging of the 3rd annual Daren Ganga Foundation charity T20 match on Saturday. The Ganga XI defeated a Brian Lara XI in a nail-biting finish at the Daren Ganga Recreation Ground in Barrackpore, with the match needing a super over to decide a winner.

"Right now my emotions are overflowing because of the love shown by everyone around... Without hesitation they (guest players) said they would be a part of this event," Ganga said at the event's closing ceremony and awards presentation.

The ex-West Indies batsman thanked the spectators for continuing to support the initiative which features past and present West Indies stars and helps raise funds for his foundation's programmes throughout the year.

"Even though my side (Ganga XI) now have the advantage (2-1) in the tie, the real winners are the members of the community and those who came out to support this annual event," he said.
