This year we had our qualifies at
Monaragala. We had 5 teams in our group. They were Shakthi, Super Kings,
Senehasa, Rathmalana School Team and The Sri Lanka Council for the Blind. We
had to travel for 8 hours to reach Monaragala, but everything was arranged
nicely for our players and we had a good rest before our matches.
We won our first match against the
Thangalle Senehasa Team. Kalyan Kumar scored a half century, in balling me and
Kalyan took 3 wickets each. Kalyan Kumar is a member of the national cricket
team since 1998 so it was a great experience for me to play with him in the
same team. After the first round we placed 3rd in the group. In the quarter
finals we lost to Super Kings Team. In that match Madusanka Vishvanath scored a
half century, In balling he took 3 wickets, me and Kalyan took 1 wicket each.
I’m satisfied with my performances in the
tournament this year.
