Cup Match stars honoured in Zuill match

Dearly departed: Warrington “Soup” Zuill

Past Cup Match players will be honoured in the tenth year of the passing of historian Warrington “Soup” Zuill when the ninth memorial match is played at Sea Breeze Oval on Sunday between a Bermuda Masters team and the Jamaican Association.

The 35-overs match will start at noon and will feature former Cup Match players such as Herbie Bascome, Clevie Wade, Ricky Hill, Charlie Marshall, Allen Richardson, Lionel Cann and Kyle Lightbourne in the Masters team.
