Sachithra 6 for 32

Leg spinner Sachithra Perera returned excellent figures of six wickets for 32 as Ananda College dismissed Richmond College Galle for a modest 152 runs in their first innings on the opening day of their inter school under 19 cricket tournament match which commenced at Ananda Mawatha yesterday.

Ananda: 132 for 6 (H. Wimaladharma 19, D. Madushan 31, I. Samarasinghe 20, T. Samarakoon 26 n.o, D. de Silva 4 for 59, S. Dissanayake 2 for 31). CD
