Qureshi added that plans are afoot and all the matches will be held under strict Covid 19 guidelines. “We held our US Open T20 tournament last year at the same venue and we had no issues. This time around we are hoping to again pull off a world class event despite the Covid 19.”The teams will be vying for US$100,000 in prize money plus there will also be individual prizes available.
