Karunanayake helps SSC to 265/5

CRICKET: All rounder Shalika Karunanayake hit a splendid unbeaten half century to help SSC reach a healthy first innings total of 265 for 5 on the opening day of their Sri Lanka Cricket under 23 division one tournament final against the traditional rivals NCC played at the SSC grounds, Maitland Place yesterday.

Karunanayake batting at number five steadied the SSC middle order with a polished 65 not out from 87 balls stroking seven fours and two sixes.

He dominated an unfinished sixth wicket partnership of 86 runs with his partner Janudika Sriyapala whose contribution was a valuable 29 runs.

The pair came together at 179 for 5 and remained until the end before heavy ran forced the umpires to call off the game early with a total of 18 overs still left for the day.

This was after skipper Damith Indika and Kaushal Silva had put on 73 runs for the fourth wicket.

This stand was quite an important one for SSC who had lost two wickets in succession at that stage. But Damith Indika and Kaushal Silva laid the foundation for a good first innings total with some intelligent batting.

Indika played a real captains innings where he faced a total of 116 balls for his knock of 42 which was studded with six fours. SSC of course got off a solid start with the openers Randev Fernando and Dilhan Cooray putting on 47 runs after they had been put into bat.
