Will this improve West Indies cricket?
Posted on July 6th, 2007 by Vijay Krishna Narayanan
A Texan billionaire has pledged $100 million over a period of three years to improve the game of cricket in the Caribbean. Allen Stanford believes that the expanded Stanford 20/20 tournament to be held in early 2008 will be a “life-changing experience”.
The prizemoney up for grabs is $2.9 million. That is huge for a domestic competition. (The overall prizemoney for World Cup 2007 was around $5 million.)

very very very very nice article. I haven’t ever seen before. I think you should carry on and give us many news.
Stanford sponsored a 20/20 last yr also… Its good for WI cricket that he has extended his support again. Hope the WICB uses him and his resources judiciously.
It’s not all about money. It may make a few players rich. No one was able to match Toyota’s supply chain, no one would be able to meet the Australian standards in cricket in the forthcoming years.
Hoodia…
great site, nice design.
