Chinthana Wasala

Moors Sports Club President and Colombo Municipal Council Mayor A J M Muzammil and vice president and Parliamentarian A H M Azwar have requested the Sri Lanka Cricket Premier League tournament organizing committee to hold the tournament final at a neutral venue.

The Moors SC President had also stated that by hosting the final, the home team SSC will gain an unfair advantage in the title decider.

Sinhalese Sports Club and Moors SC will meet in the grand finale which was originally scheduled to be held at the SSC grounds from April 5 to 7. SSC qualified for the final when they beat Tamil Union while Moors SC beat Panadura Sports Club to book a place in final.
