Monday, January 26 - Kingston, Jamaica:  After a closely contested Away Series in New Zealand, the West Indies cricket team has returned home to face England in the Digicel Series 2009.

Digicel Group Head of Sponsorship, Kieran Foley, is looking forward to the upcoming series: “We are looking forward to what is sure to be an exciting Digicel Series against England in the Caribbean. Over the last year, the West Indies cricketers have made great progress as a team and individually, with some of the players breaking ground with their batting and bowling during the recent Away Tour to New Zealand.

 

“For the upcoming Digicel Series, we have once again developed a host of fun and exciting initiatives and we are looking forward to the thousands of fans from across the Caribbean turning up to support their team as they take on England on their home turf.”

 

West Indies Head Coach John Dyson is expecting “tense, hard-fought” cricket against England in the upcoming Digicel Series 2009: “The much awaited Digicel Series against England should produce some tense, hard-fought cricket between the two teams. England is placed two spots higher than the West Indies at Number five on the ICC Test table, which is enough incentive to spur the West Indies team on to perform well.

 

“The cricket loving public should be ready for some engrossing cricket. It is time for West Indies to stand up and prove that we are climbing the International Cricket Council’s [ICC] table.”

 

Starting Wednesday, February 4th, cricket fans will experience a potential 26 days of exciting cricket when the West Indies stand up to England in the Digicel Series 2009 and Digicel promises fans that this series will indeed be ‘More Than a Match’.
