Sixteen year old medium pacer Pramodhya Abeykoon of Trinity College
performed the rare feat of taking 4 wickets in 4 balls which included
the hat-trick in their schools under 17 Division one cricket tournament
match against Dharmaraja College, Kandy at the Lake View grounds, Kandy.
Pramodhya Abeykoon's feat more remarkable as it was against a top school
in their own grounds.

His performance resulted in the Rajans tottering at 29 for 9 before a
last ditch stand took them to 66 all out.
Trinity College won this match by the huge margin of 207 runs.
Pramodhya Abeykoon played for Trinity College team during the schools
cricket season and did reasonably well.
He is all praise for his coach Sampath Perera who chiselled his rough
edges and is a bolwer to watch in the future.
