Cricket U19 2013 - Mahanama vs Dharmapala

Dharmapala on a first innings win. Surrey Village, 29-30 January

Pawan Devinda slammed a career best 200 and remained not out as Mahanama declared their first innings at 301 for the loss of 4 wickets. Dharamapala lost 4 wickets making 63 runs before close of play on day one but went on to earn a first innings win over Mahanama thanks to a brilliant know of 198 by Prashan Rathnasekara who put on a record 97 run partnership for the last wicket with Kushan Jayalath.

In hindsight Mahanama should have scored a few more runs before declaring their first innings which would have earned them an easy first innings win in instead.
