After a gap of two years, Guernsey men’s cricket team will host Jersey in the upcoming Inter-Insular Series 2022 consisting of three T20I matches.

The first match of the T20I series will be played at College Ground in St. Peter Fort on May 20 and the final two matches will be played at King George V Sports Ground in Castel on May 21.

The Inter-Insular series was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We’re excited to be going back into inter-insular cricket after the Covid break,” said Jersey head coach Neil MacRae. “There’s been some anticipation among the squad over the last ten days and that will only intensify as we get closer to the weekend.

We’ve prepared well. T20 internationals are big events in their own right, but especially against Guernsey and especially away from home,”MacRae added.

Ranked 23rd in the ICC rankings, Jersey will be led by Chuggy Perchard while 38th ranked Guernsey have named Josh Butler as their skipper.

Since 1950, Guernsey and Jersey have clashed against each other in an Inter-Insular cricket match generally in the 50-over format. An Inter-Insular series in 20-over format was held for the first time in 2018.

The ICC granted T20I status to the 2019 edition of the Inter-Insular Cup for the first time.

Jersey are the defending champions of the T20I Inter-Insular series, having won the last edition in 2019.
