An excellent bowling spell by spinners Avishka Lakshan (4/13), Deelaka Fernando (3/18) and Kavindu Jayawickrema (2/5) helped Kalutara Vidyalaya restrict Rahula College to 102 runs and register a seven wicket win in their under 17 division one first round match played at the public grounds Kaluthara. Kalutara Vidyalaya skipper Danuka Nimmana called the toss correctly and invited the visitors to bat first, thus, restricting Rahula to 102 off 38.5 overs.

Rahula skipper Bhagya Himath topped the score sheet with a well compiled 40 off 50 balls with four boundaries and two sixes while Ravija Kithmuka (14) was the only other batsman to enter double figures.  Avishka Lakshan, Deelaka Fernando, Kavindu Jayawickrema and Danuka Nimmana shared the wickets.

Kalutara Vidyalaya won the match in 22.4 overs with seven wickets intact. Prabodh Wanasinghe topped the score card with an unbeaten 37 off 25 balls with eight boundaries while wicket keeper Dunith Nimhan chipped in with 22 off 40 balls. Bagya Himath, Kavishka Lakshan and Chamuditha Dishan captured one wicket each for Rahula.
