Basnahira South ends first round unbeaten

By M Naushad Amit

Unbeaten Basnahira South, Wayamba, Kandurata and Ruhuna qualified to play in the semi-finals of the Inter-Provincial Twenty20 tournament which will be worked off on Saturday (April 4) at the SSC grounds after finishing all their round robin matches. Accordingly Basnahira South will meet Kandurata in the first semi-final at 10.00 am and Ruhuna will take on Wayamba at 2.00 pm in the second semi-final.
Basnahira South recorded their fifth straight win in the tournament with a stunning 4-wicket victory over Ruhuna in a high scoring encounter at the SSC yesterday. Basnahira South reached a challenging target of 159 with eight balls to spare largely to Chamara Silva’s entertaining knock of 44 not out off 31 balls which included four fours and a six. Silva was well supported by Dilruwan Perera who hit 32 in 29 balls (4 fours, 1 six) and Hasantha Fernando (24).
