International T/20 stars Rayad Emrit and Lendl Simmons are confirmed to be part of the Golden Republic T20 Bash set for February 21, 2020, at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence.
However, the experienced players will be on opposing sides in the feature clash of a doubleheader at Guyana’s international cricket venue.
Right-arm medium-fast bowler, Emrit is considered a limited-overs specialist with his skill set earning him places in many franchise teams globally while Simmons is an attacking top-order batsman who was part of the West Indies T20 side that won the title in India in 2018.
Both players are no strangers to local fans having played a number of seasons for the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the Caribbean Premier League with tremendous success.
