Priyanjan, Pavan shine in Dambulla’s win over Colombo

Ashan Priyanjan (6-20) followed by Pavan Rathnayaka’s half-ton, helped Team Dambulla outplay team Colombo by 6 wickets and continue their brilliant form in the ongoing SLC National Super League 50 over tournament at SSC on Sunday.

Put into bat first, Colombo was bundled out for 140 runs and in reply, Dambulla reached the target in just 27.3 overs.

Colombo didn’t have the best of the starts as they were reduced to 3-46 inside 11 overs with Sithara Gimhana (7), Krishan Sanjula (18) and Nipun Dhananjaya (4) all departing cheaply.

To make things worse, they lost two more quick wickets, that of Heshan Fernando (19) and Sachitha Jayathilake (4), to pin them down further.

With the scoreboard reading 5-72, Dushan Vimukthi joined Ashen Bandara in the middle and slowly revived their innings building 32 run partnership for the 6th wicket, but the partnership was short-lived when Vimkuthi (14) was caught at mid-on off Sonal Dinusha’s bowling.

With half of the side back in the pavilion, Ashen Bandara played a lone cameo of 36 runs off 40 deliveries including a boundary and a six before he was run out courtesy of a brilliant fielding effort from Lakshan Sandakan.

At one stage it looked like Dambulla wouldn’t go past the 120-run mark, but a late surge by Kalana Perera (24) saw them add some valuable runs from down the order before they were bowled out for 140 runs.

Ashan Priyanjan was the architect of Colombo’s collapse and ended with figures of 6-20, while Lahiru Samarakoon and Sonal Dinusha picked up a wicket each.

In reply, it was a walk in the park for team Dambulla as they took just 27.3 overs to achieve the target.

Pavan Rathnayaka top scored with a brilliant 53 ball 51 runs including 7 boundaries and a six, while Lasith Abeyrathna (30) and Sonal Dinusha (29*) also contributed with useful knocks.

Brief scores:

Colombo: 144 all out (38) (Ashen Bandara 36, Kalana Perera 24*, Ashan Priyanjan 6-20)

Dambulla: 146-4 (27.3) (Pavan Rathnayaka 51, Lasith Abeyrathna 30, Sonal Dinusha 29*, Dushan Vimukthi 1-30, Nuwan Pradeep 1-51, Danushka Sandaruwan 1-27)
