Rain hampers Major Club Cricket
Rain hampered proceedings in the Major Club Limited Over Tournament with only one result coming out by defending champions NCC, who overcame Air Force SC by 20 runs on the D/L method at the Air Force ground in Katunayake yesterday.
NCC took the first lease and made 139 runs and then forced Air Force to defend at 90 for 7 in 28 overs when rain curtailed play. The target for Air Force at the time of stoppage was 111 runs.
Four other matches ended in no results while three matches scheduled to be played at Maggona, BRC and De Zoysa Stadium in Moratuwa were abandoned without a ball being bowled.
