Guernsey face Fiji, Botswana and Suriname in WCL6
THE carrot of an ICC final at the County Ground in Chelmsford has been dangled in front of Guernsey after the schedule for ICC World Cricket League Division Six was released.
Firstly, though, the Sarnians must finish in the top two of their group, which also contains Fiji, Botswana and Suriname, to qualify for the semi-finals of the eight-nation tournament to be held in Essex from 7-13 September.
Not only will the two semi-final winners get to play for the title at Chelmsford, both will gain promotion to Division Five next year.
