Sri Lanka U19 World record holder Hasitha Boyagoda and his partner Thisaru Dilshan knocked Ananda College out of the Singer U19 Limited overs tournament with a convincing 8-wicket win in their Pre-quarter final played today in Asgiriya.
Trinity skipper Hasitha Boyagoda won the toss and invited the lads from Maradana to take first lease of the Asgiriya surface. Lahiru Hiranya stroked a timely half-ton but he ran out of partners as the visitors were restricted to a modest 190 all out inside 48 overs.
