A decision on the cards
S. M. JIFFREY ABDEEN Kandy Sports Corr.
Twenty four wickets fell on the first day of the inter-school cricket
match between Trinity College and Isipatana College which began at the
Asgiriya Stadium in Kandy yesterday, and a decision looks certain.
The Pathians who took first strike were all at sea against this
season's formidable spin attack of Akila Jayasundera who took 4 for 30
and skipper Rushan Jaleel did one better to capture 5 for 44.
Isipatana College who batted a second time after tea had made 105 for
4 at stumps in 29 overs.
Isipathana 127 (N. Sasanka 38, R. Jaleel 5 for 44, A. Jayasundera 4
for 30) and 105 for 4 wickets (N. Sasanka 39).
Trinity 151 (S. Wijesuriya 26, R. Jaleel 41 n.o., M. Sajeed 22, A.
Deemantha 6 for 70). |
