Champions League Twenty20 2nd Semi Final
Cape Cobras vs Trinidad & Tobago
Date : 22 October 2009
Place : Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad
Time : 20:00 local time (14:30 GMT) (D/N)
Match : Cape Cobras vs Trinidad & Tobago
If you had blinked at the start of the Cape Cobras innings in the Champions League so far, you were likely to miss Herschelle Gibbs. His appearances have been fleeting - he's scored 0, 1 and 0 - but both the Trinidad & Tobago and Cape Cobras captains, and the batsman himself, were aware of Gibbs' game-breaking potential in Thursday's semi-final in Hyderabad.
Gibbs had opted out of the Cobras' game against Victoria in Bangalore after a security alert at the Chinnaswamy Stadium postponed the start of the game by 100 minutes. He did not leave the team hotel for personal security but appeared to be in brighter spirits today and was optimistic of having an impact in the semi-final.
Trinidad & Tobago's dream run in the ongoing Champions League Twenty20 is the end product of sustained planning and financial investment in cricket, the country's top sports officials have said. While sport and youth affairs minister Gary Hunt has specifically credited the financial investment by Sports Company of Trinidad & Tobago (SPORTT) and the Tourism Development Company (TDC), cricket board chief Deryck Murray pointed to the role of local tournaments and development programmes.
According to the T&T Express Hunt said that TDC pumped in US$ 100,000 in financial assistance while SPORTT, who had been crucial in planning and development for years, gave the T&T cricket board $14million over the last three years.
