SINGAPORE in late August is proving to be similarly wet to Guernsey, except it’s wetter and much warmer.

Tomorrow Guernsey begin their World League Division Six campaign against Singapore and while the Sarnians report no injury worries, doubts remain whether they will get a game in at all.

It’s been pouring much of the week to back up temperatures of 30C.

‘It’s very wet. We’ve had masses of rain and it is a worry because it has been raining in the day,’ said Guernsey manager Dave Hearse. ‘It’s coming down in sheets,’ he added.

Similar rain in Guernsey would probably render the island’s grass wickets unplayable, but Hearse is confident that should the downpours relent there is every chance of cricket.

‘Being windy and humid it dries quickly. The boys have trained very hard Tuesday and Wednesday, so we gave them a day off today [Thursday].’

He would not give a clue to the team line-up for tomorrow’s game but said nobody was ruled out at this stage.

‘All 14 have got a chance of playing as they have all been doing very well.’
