The Prime Minister and the Minister of Sports met with Cricket West Indies (CWI) to discuss the final steps to be taken in preparation for the World Cup in June 2024. The Antigua Recreation Grounds (ARG) is certified as a practice venue, as is the Coolidge Cricket Grounds. The matches will be played at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground. Antigua now has three certified fields—that is more than any other in the cricketing Caribbean-island venues. The decision to vie for and to succeed in bringing Cricket West Indies to Antigua, more than 20 years ago, is still bearing fruit.
