Strong outfits such as NCC, SSC, Colts, CCC, Moors and Ragama CC managed to register victories overcoming their respective opponents. However, the shocking result of the day was the much fancied Tamil Union Cricket Club’s defeat against Kurunegala Youth Cricket Club. The all-round efforts of Dinushka Malan helped Kurunegala side register the victory.
National cap Dinesh Chandimal who has been overlooked for the ongoing South Africa series, made a strong statement with the bat scoring an unbeaten century against Bloomfield. In addition, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Bhanuka Rajapaksha, Hashan Dumindu and Chathuranga de Silva stroked centuries for their respective clubs.
