Guyana GSL T20 cricket and ferry disaster aid

Overview

In late July 2026, the Guyana Amazon Warriors won a GSL T20 match and announced that all ticket sales from the league’s upcoming final on 1 August would be donated to families and survivors of the MV Barima ferry capsizing, which had killed 65 people off the Essequibo coast. The pledge linked the cricket tournament to humanitarian relief for the disaster.

On 1 August, the Warriors captured the ExxonMobil Guyana Global Super League T20 title, defeating the San Francisco Unicorns in a low‑scoring final. The match concluded the tournament whose ticket revenue was earmarked for the Barima victims, completing the league’s commitment to support the affected communities.
