A Texan Businessman is investing $28m in West Indian cricket by launching an inter-island Twenty20 cricket league. The league will feature teams from:

Anguilla, Antigua & Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, Cayman Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, Montserrat, St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia, St Maarten, British Virgin Islands, St Vincent, Trinidad & Tobago.

Surprised the USA team doesn't get a look in, and also surprised that Montserrat still has enough people living there to get a squad together after the volcano a few years back.

Anyway, each team will get $100k for getting involved, and the winner takes $1m. All in the aim of rejuvenating Caribbean interest in cricket. I reckon this'll go down a storm in the Caribbean as the locals can really get behind their Island!
