I will maintain that the poor crowds at CWI matches has to do with the non-existent and lack of imaginative marketing and promotions by the insipid CWI. The T20I match on Sunday last had a so-so crowd for that match but the crowds came in later for the CPL game which followed. I guarantee that all grounds will be packed for the CPL starting this weekend. The CPL is all over social media and regular media. Here in Antigua, the Falcons have been hosting meet and greet with music, top local performers and giveaways every weekend. The same is happening in all countries that have CPL teams. Look at the excitement in Guyana when people slept outside the ticket office overnight to ensure they got tickets on the first day of sales. And the first 20 received free Amazon paraphernalia. Top local and regional singers and bands have been contracted for all CPL matches. So fans are excited. They are coming to party and have a good time and at the same time enjoy some cricket. While all of this is happening the CWI is sleeping. And yet, the same Directors are re-cycled over and over by the CWI.
