Phuket Cricket Week: 2020. Build Up

About the Phuket Cricket Week

Welcome to the official blog of the Phuket Cricket Week

The Phuket Cricket Week is run by the Asian Cricket Sixes Tour (ACST) (www.cricketsixes.com)

The ACST continues to organise superb club cricket events at fantastic locations across Asia Pacific since it was founded in 2000.

The Phuket Cricket Week comprises of the ICC Award Winning Phuket International Cricket Sixes and the Thalang International 7's (formerly known as the Kata International 7's)

The Sixes were first held in 2004, while the 7's made its first appearance in 2012. Both events have helped raise substantial sums through the kindness of its worldwide participants to assist in the next generation of Thais falling in love with the game through the Phuket Cricket Group's Junior Development Fund. The ACST would like to thank the PCG for their continued and invaluable support as the Phuket Cricket week continues to flourish.

All enquiries for anyone wishing to come along and make friendships through the game, whether as a team or individuals should contact the ACST Chairman, Michael 'Cat' Maher at mmaher.padmir@bigpond.com or by telephone on +61 407 385 481.

We hope that you enjoy looking through the archives of this brilliant event. Look at the index page down the right-hand side and click on the year and feature you wish to see. Content will continually be updated. If you see an untitled image you can assist with, please get in touch!

2020. Build Up

2020 Phuket Cricket Week Cancelled

It is with the greatest regret that the Asian Cricket Sixes Tour (ACST) has been forced to cancel the Phuket Cricket Week which includes both the 17th Annual Phuket International Cricket Sixes and the 9th Annual Thalang International Cricket 7’s owing to issues caused by the COVID-19 outbreak.

The Cricket Week was due to be staged from the 8^th to the 19^th of April but travel restrictions introduced by the countries of most of our participating teams and our duty of care with medical concerns regarding the virus to all involved in the event has left us with little option but to make this decision.

The ACST is devastated and saddened to have had to make this decision. We apologise to all our sponsors, supporters, loyal players and local businesses in Phuket that will be affected by it. Unfortunately, we have been beaten by circumstances beyond our control on this occasion.

The next ACST tournament is the 2020 Siam International Cricket Sevens in Chiang Mai, Thailand which will take place between Friday 27^th and Sunday the 29^th of November 2020.

For further details, please contact ACST Chairman, Mr Michael “Cat” Maher at mmaher.padmir@bigpond.com or by telephone on +61 407 385 481.
