Dilanka Kumara with his bronze medal<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A 26-year-old Corporal from Sri Lanka Army Service Corps hailing from Kurunegala Dilanka Isuru Kumara Yodage won Sri Lanka\u2019s first medal at the XXII Commonwealth Games in Birmingham when he was placed third in the men\u2019s 55kg weightlifting event on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI always had hopes of winning a medal and was confident because of the training I underwent,\u201d said an elated Dilanka Kumara after adorning himself with a bronze medal to launch Sri Lanka campaign in weightlifting.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a highly competitive weight category where gold medallist Malaysia\u2019s Mohamad Aniq set a Games record of 249kg followed to pip India\u2019s Mahadev Sargar (248), Kumara lifted a total of 225kg (105 snatch and 135 clean and jerk) to clinch third place. He failed in his attempt to snatch 112kg and lift 137kg and 141kg in the clean and jerk.<\/span><\/p>\n

This was Kumara\u2019s first international medal failing to win a podium place at the Commonwealth Weightlifting Championship in December but qualifying for the Games in a Singapore tournament in February.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe had more expectations but we achieved our goal of winning a medal. Considering the situation in the country where we could not get fuel to go for training, we have to content with this performance. Perhaps his performance was affected by the chilly weather. We are confident we can win more medals in the weightlifting,\u201d said assistant coach Rukshan Chinthaka, a Sports Officer from Wayamba Province.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The biggest disappointment was Srimali Samarakoon, gold medallist at the Commonwealth Championship and Singapore tournament in the 45kg weight class. Competing in the women\u2019s 49kg event for the first time, she failed in three attempts to lift 90kg in the clean and jerk to finish in eighth position. India\u2019s Chanu Saikhom Mirabai won the gold medal with a total of 201kg setting a new Games Record while Morocco\u2019s Marie Hantra Roilya (172kg) and Canada\u2019s Hannah Kaminski (171kg) won silver and bronze respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another medal prospect in weightlifting, Chamari Warnakulasuriya finished seventh in the women\u2019s 55kg weight category lifting a total of 164kg. Nigeria\u2019s Adijath Adenika Olariynoye lifted a total of 203kg to win the gold medal in a new Games record pipping India\u2019s Bindyarani Devi Sorobkhaibam (202) and England\u2019s Frarer Morrow (198).<\/span><\/p>\n

Sri Lanka\u2019s women\u2019s T20 cricket team lost to England in their opening pool B match at Edgbaston on Saturday night with the hosts coasting to a five-wicket win almost three overs to spare in a low-scoring encounter. Australia beat India by three wickets, Pakistan lost to Barbados while New Zealand beat South Africa by 13 runs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sri Lanka\u2019s Tuskers played their hearts out against England in their pool A match. Sri Lanka closed the gap to 21-12 at half time but England romped home 47-19 scoring seven tries and six conversions. Tharinda Ratwattee, skipper Srinath Sooriyabandara, and Buddhima Piyaratne scored a try apiece for Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the 9\/16 quarter-final against Uganda, Sri Lanka lost 38-19 fighting back after trailing 19-5 at the break. Uganda scored six tries and four conversions while Sooriyanbandara, Buddhima Piyaratne and Reeza Raffaideen scored the tries for Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ganga Seneviratne competing in the 100m backstroke clocked one minute 06.17 seconds in heat seven which produced several of the fastest qualifiers for the next round.<\/span><\/p>\n
