When are we going to get serious about our cricket? What you expect to gain from 5 matches?

Look at the schedule, something tells me, CWI scheduled matches around the Redforce squad team.
No match today, because of a number of guys on T10 duties.
The Pride and Hurricane will play tomorrow, Redforce first match will be on Thursday.
I know a Trini will tell me the reason why.

Exactly!

In these coronavirus times, we're lucky we even have one round.

Whats the difference between the the Virus of 2020 and now?
Last year ten teams played, each group played two rounds.

Everything they will blame on covid. You are right we have less teams than last year so surely we could have done two rounds.

The guys are basically in a bubble. No fans permitted.


Yes it’s expensive to run but you have sponsors and all the games on one island to help absorb and cut costs .


Are we even going to have a R4D?

Regional FC Tournament in March/April, no reverse fixtures, tournament to be held in two countries.

Certainly looks that way, I remember reading Jamaica's fist fixture was due to be played yesterday.

It was strange seeing the schedule, six teams, two grounds, with a rest day coming the third day of a tournament.
Then as I looked at the fixtures closely, T&T will play it first match on Thursday.

Even with a rest day you would assume that either or Botha Jamaica or Trinidad and Tobago would be involved today.
