Twelve matches of Major Club Emerging 3 Day Tournament 2022 continued for day two today (26th February) at several venues across the island.
The double centuries made by Ragama CC batter Avishka Tharindu and Air Force batter Movin Subasinghe stole the limelight of the Emerging Encounters Tournament, which was worked off today. Tharindu was the top scorer of the day as he made 215 runs off 285 balls with 22 fours and 3 sixes.
Movin’s double ton was an aggressive one as he stroked 203 runs off 183 balls with 14 fours and 13 sixes at a strike rate of 110.92. Nimesha Gunasinghe also struck a brilliant century, guiding Nugegoda SWC to a commanding position against Badureliya CC at the end of day two.
In terms of bowling performances, Maduranga Naveen’s 7 wicket haul against NCC and Yasiru Rodrigo’s 6 wicker haul against Moors SC stood out from the rest.
