NCN to bring live ball-by-commentary
After a few years of absence, live Regional four-day cricket will be back on NCN’s Voice of Guyana (VOG) from 10:00hrs
tomorrow when the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Four-Day Franchise First-Class cricket starts with Guyana Jaguars face-off with the Leeward Islands at the Guyana National Stadium at Providence.
An initiative of NCN’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Molly Rampersaud Hassan, Marketing Manager Raymond Azeez and NCN’s cricket producer John Ramsingh, the local station has committed to bringing live ball-by-ball commentary for all of the home games this year with support from the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB).
Some of Guyana’s most experienced radio cricket broadcasters have been assembled including Sean Devers, who has commentated in the World Cup ODIs and at Test level and Iderjeet Persaud, who has commented in ODIs. Former International cricket commentator Niam Chan has also been recalled.
Devers returns to the local airwaves after a successful surgery and treatment for Brain Cancer and along with Matthew Kissoon and Berbican Anthony Khemraj have been selected to call play in the opening game with the analysts being former Test player Travis Dowlin and ex-Guyana Wicket-Keeper Sidney Jackman.
Inderjeet, Chan and News Anchor Avenash Ramzan will describe the action in the Jaguars’ second match against the Windwards Volcanoes from November 21-24 at Providence with the analysts being former National cricketers Neil Barry and Roderick Lovell.
The final game against Barbados, also at Providence from November 28 to December 1 will be broadcasted by the International team of Barbadian Andrew Mason, Devers and Persaud with Jackman and Dowlin doing the analytical work.
The Voice of Guyana is heard throughout Guyana and Companies interested in providing sponsorship for the cricket can call NCN’s Marketing Department on telephone numbers 226-1382 or 223-7549 for more information.
