A crowd of more than 50 enjoyed a day of traditional Sri Lankan tunes, <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">great food, and a cricket match of the highest calibre between Ananda and Nalanda, in what was no doubt a spectacular day to remember! After winning the toss and electing to bat first, Nalanda posted 136\/9 in the allotted 35 overs. In a keenly contested chase, Ananda reached the target in 32.5 overs with 5 wickets to spare. For his 5\/22 off 5 overs, including the first ever hattrick in a QBoM match, Vidu <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Jagoda Aarachchi from Ananda was judged the best bowler of the day. Meanwhile, for his unbeaten 72 runs and 2\/26 off 7 overs, Ananda\u2019s Rakith Senanayake was adjudicated the best batsman and man of the match.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">With this result, the overall tally stands at 6-4 in favour of Nalanda after they had won the previous encounters in 2018 and 2019 in two <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">very tight games. We thank all those who attended on the day and supported the event.
