The
sixth holding of the Thailand International Cricket Sixes, which is organised
by the Asian Cricket Sixes Tour (ACST) in conjunction with the Southerners Club
of Bangkok, is to be held at the Harrow International School this weekend from
Friday 25th until Sunday 27th October. Once again the
event is attracting cricketers from across the world to compete and make
friendships through cricket.
The
Singaporian outfit, The Lanka Lions have dominated the tournament, as Cup
Winners for the last four years. They are likely to face stiff competition from
the regular appearing MG7 team who are travelling over from Kuwait.
The
tournament has a truly international flavour with teams travelling to Bangkok
from China, Hong Kong, Singapore, the UAE, England, India and Kuwait along with
the Thai based outfits who will also partake in functions each evening to
continue enjoying quality time in each other’s company.
The
tournament consists of preliminary round games before being divided into three
divisions in time for Finals Day on Sunday so that the competing sides find
their relevant standard, meaning that players of all abilities are as ever welcome.
The
Chairman of the ACST; Michael Maher is looking forward to what promises to be
another superb event. “It’s wonderful to see up to sixteen teams turning out. I
cannot thank them and our many wonderful sponsors enough for enabling the ACST
to arrange such a tournament. The Chaophya Park Hotel has been with us since
day one accommodating our players, officials and supporters, so it’s fitting
that they are our title sponsors for 2013.”
Play
will begin at around 9.30am each day and will end at dusk at the school, which
is located approximately one kilometre west of Don Muang Airport. Admission is
free, refreshments are available and all spectators are welcome.
