'I am truly looking forward to this series because we want to start off strongly and make our home turf a fortress during this cycle, while having our passionate and proud fans behind us," Sammy said.
"The matches will be challenging but I believe in this core of players, and they are eager to wear the maroon and make our fans happy.
