Dubai Cricket Council vacate premises

Posted on 05/23/2006 in Dubai

Gulfnews.com report that cricket in Dubai is slowly grinding to a halt, with the news that the Dubai Cricket Council (DCC) has had to vacate its premises in the Al Jadaf area after the Dubai Municipality evicted them.

"Thousands of cricket players and cricket lovers in Dubai are shocked with this cruel reality. The authorities should wake up and act in time to set up new facility before the start of next season in September," wrote one fan, outraged at the decision.
