Gauhati Town Lift the Cup at the 7th Phuket Cricket Sixes

Twenty four teams have been competing in this year’s Phuket International Cricket Sixes and Finals Day saw a fantastic culmination of cricket skills, entertainment and action.

The Cup semi finals threw up an absorbing match between CBB Postels and Corner Tigers. CBB Postels reached 54/2 following a good bowling session from the Tigers from Pakistan. It was an exciting run chase though which came down to the last ball, the Postels fighting hard all the way. Five runs was required from the last ball and the Tigers only had one wicket remaining. The unlucky bowler however conceded a wide which left just one run to win for the Tigers (4 runs for a wide in this tournament) which they duly stroked to triumphant cheering from their supporters.

"ACST Announce Creation of New Phuket Junior Cricket Development Fund"

 

The Asian Cricket Sixes tour is delighted to announce that the fundraising efforts, spearheaded by Karyn “Kitten” Brown of the CBBs, for junior cricket development in Phuket at the recent Phuket International Cricket Sixes 2010 (April 14-18) were very successful, and just over THB130,000 (approx US$4,000) was raised during the tournament through the generosity of the participating teams, officials and supporters.

It was heartening for all to see a team of teenage Thai boys organized by local Phuket volunteers, the PCDC Natives, competing in the Sixes for the first time, and doing well. An all Thai cricket team of young local players playing in the tournament was a fantastic first for the Sixes and one that several years ago, when the tournament started, was always hoped for.
