2008 Stanford Super Series

The 2008 Stanford Super Series is a cricket tournament sponsored by Texan billionaire Allen Stanford. The tournament was played between 25 October-1 November comprising of 5 warmup matches and a $US 20 million for the grand finale. This match was played between the Stanford Superstars and England.

There is a row between Digicel, the WICB's main sponsor and Stanford. Digicel argued that it should get sponsorship rights because it is WICB's sponsorship rights holder and that the tournament was officially sanctioned by the WICB.England's $20m Stanford Twenty20 game will go ahead as planned, the tournament organisers have confirmed.

The game was thrown into doubt when the West Indies Cricket Board lost its case against team sponsor Digicel and was told it could not sanction the match.
