The first Royal\u2013Thomian cricket match played between Royal College, Colombo (at that time called Colombo Academy) and S. Thomas’ College, Mount Lavinia was played on 15\u201317 July 1879 at Galle Face Green, which is today the site of the Taj Samudra Hotel. It was said that the two teams had to row across the Beira Lake in boats to reach the Galle Face Grounds. Colombo Academy won the inaugural encounter by 56 runs.<\/span><\/p>\n
