143வது தடவையாக, புனித தோமஸ் கல்லூரிக்கும் கொழும்பு றோயல் கல்லூரிக்கும் இடையிலான ப்ளூஸ் போர், மோசமான வெளிச்சம் காரணமாக இரண்டாவது நாளில் நிறுத்தப்பட்டது. தனது முதல் இன்னிங்ஸை விளையாடிய கொழும்பு ரோயல் அணி 4 விக்கெட்டுகளை இழந்து 136 ஓட்டங்களைப் பெற்றிருந்தது.

உவிந்து வீரசேகர 62 ஓட்டங்களுடனும், ரமிரு பெரேரா 9 ஓட்டங்களுடனும் ஆடுகளத்தில் இருந்தனர். புனித தோமஸ் கல்லூரி அணி முதல் இன்னிங்ஸில் இருநூற்றி நாற்பத்தி இரண்டு ஓட்டங்களைப் பெற்றதுடன், சகல விக்கெட்டுகளையும் இழந்து செனேஷ் ஹெட்டியாராச்சி மற்றும் சரக பீரிஸ் ஆகியோர் சிறப்பான துடுப்பாட்டத்தின் மூலம் அரை சதங்களைப் பெற்று தோமஸ் இன்னிங்ஸை பலப்படுத்தினர். ரோயல் கல்லூரி அணிக்காக கிஷான் பாலசூரியவின் பந்துவீச்சும் அணித்தலைவர் பெரேராவின் விக்கெட்டுகளை வீழ்த்தியமை குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.
