Kingston, Jamaica – The West Indies Cricket Board announces that Semi Final 2 of the WICB Regional 50 Over Tournament – Barbados v Jamaica – which was scheduled to be played at the Trelawny Multi Purpose Stadium tomorrow, October 22, has been moved to Sabina Park.
The change was made after an assessment of the weather forecast of torrential rain and flood conditions as a result of Tropical Storm Richard which is expected to affect the north western part of Jamaica where Trelawny is located.
The decision was taken by the WICB Technical Committee after consultation between the WICB and the Jamaica Cricket Association. The Technical Committee comprises of WICB Director of Cricket, Tony Howard; Chairman of the WICB Cricket Committee, Joel Garner; and Chairman of the Selection Committee, Clyde Butts.
It is expected that there will be rain in Kingston tomorrow but based on weather forecasts there is a greater likelihood of play in Kingston than Trelawny.
The final is also scheduled for Sabina Park on Sunday October 24.
