Over 200 hundred spectators descended on the box offices at Kensington Oval before eight o’clock this morning indicating that tonight’s big semifinals clash in the Caribbean T20 between the on fire Barbados and arch rivals Trinidad & Tobago could be a sell out.
Thousands of spectators have been thronging to the Mecca to see Barbados qualify top of Group B with a 4/0 record.
However, the local organisers seemed to be caught unaware as the ticket boxes were not opened until after noon with tickets only being delivered around 11:25. 
In spite, of the murmuring and the presence of members of the Royal Barbados Police Force to prevent persons from jumping the queues the situation ended well with the patrons leaving smiling with their prized tickets.
