The penultimate round of league matches of the Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) Super Provincial Limited Over Tournament concluded today(14) with Team Galle and Team Colombo recording wins.
Dambulla vs Galle
More known for his outstanding feats with red ball cricket, Malinda Pushpakumara’s second consecutive impressive performance helped Team Galle to overcome Team Dambulla by 15 runs on the Duckworth-Lewis method. His 3/27 also put him on the top of the list of highest wicket takers with 12 scalps in just four games, while he has a miserly economy rate of 3.35 throughout the tournament.
Upul Tharanga special dismantles Kandy
Colombo vs Dambulla Team Colombo skipper Thisara Perera won the toss and elected…..
Pushpakumara’s spell of bowling and Dasun Shanaka’s three wicket haul made sure Dambulla were bundled out for 287 on a placid batting surface after the game was reduced to 47 overs due to a wet outfield, with Sachithra Senanayake (65) being the only half centurion of the innings for Team Dambulla.
Upul Tharanga who has looked in the form of his life in this tournament, took the P. Sara stadium by storm making a destructive 57 off just 26 balls during the run chase inclusive of 4 sixes and 7 fours. The top order looked solid for Team Galle in their victory with everyone making useful contribution before Sammu Ashan (48*) and Dasun Shanuka (38*) guided them home.
They were 218/3 after 37.3 overs when play was stopped for bad light and no play meant that they were awarded the win by 15 runs on the D/L method. Sachithra Serasinghe bowled best for Dambulla capturing 2/23 off 5 overs.
The win also made sure Galle secured the first spot in the final, while Colombo and Dambulla are still in contention for the other spot with one game to go.
