Man of the Match
Avishka Fernando
Commentry
That is it from this game. A comfortable win for Dambulla Aura and they open their points tally. Another game coming up next, Galle Titans will face B-Love Kandy shortly. Switch the tabs and join us there shortly. Cheers!
Thisara Perera says they will learn from this game and look forward to the next match. Adds they were in good position after 10 overs but didn't execute well later. Reckons their bowling is strong but work on the batting side.
Avishka Fernando is the Player of the Match.
..Presentation time...
For the Kings, they struggled with the bat to put up a big score. Asalanka got his fifty but at a crawling pace, no one from the middle order made a contribution and ended with what turned out to be a really low score. It needed one opening stand from Dambulla Aura to chase it down. Avishka Fernando scored a quick fire fifty and then Perera showed his aggressive skills to finish things off. A one-sided affair to be said.
A comfortable win for the Auras and they are off the mark this season. This was a better performance from them than their previous game, and that too in all three departments. The job was done with the ball though as Dambulla Aura restricted the Kings for a below-par score. Kusal Mendis shuffled his bowlers really well and they all made some kind if contribution to keep the lid on the run score.
