The group stages of the Sri Lankan Major Clubs Limited over Tournament is over and it is now confirmed that Tamil Union will play Colombo on Saturday with the Sri Lankan Army facing off against Ace Capital.
The Sri Lankan Army underlined their credentials as hot favourites
for the trophy as they beat 11th placed Negombo by 5 wickets. They
onled needed 11.5 overs to chase down the 133 set for them by Negombo who have had
a disappointing campaign.
Elsewhere, Nishan Fernando became the third player to have
scored two centuries in the competition as 5th placed Ragama beat
Kandy Customs by 119 runs. Kandy Customs were all out for just 97 as they
chased down the Nishan-guided Ragama total of 216. Despite the mauling, Kandy
Customs will be pleased overall with their position which has seen them finish
two places higher than last time. In contrast, Ragama finished second place
last season but are a long long way off the pace this time out.
Tamil Union finished on top of Group A thanks to a comprehensive
victory over Bloomfield. Navod Paranavithana amazing figures of 2.5-0-8-6 saw
him raze Bloomfield all out for 79. A very easy chase for the table-toppers.
The wheels have really come off Bloomfield as they slump from a 5th
placed finish last year to finish in 9th this time out.
The round robin stage finishes with Burgher’s Duvindu
Tillakaratne as the highest wicket taker with 36 whilst Chilaw Marians’ Kasun
Vidura’s 631 makes him the highest run scorer.
