Left arm spinner Chathura Jayanath grabbed nine wickets to bundle out Karandeniya Central College for 45 runs and give Debarawewa Natonal School a first innings lead in their Singer Trophy under-19 inter school cricket match at Karandeniya yesterday.
Electing to field first Karandeniya Central did well to restrict Debarawewa to 88 runs. Skippper Ravindu Milan was rewarded with a five wicket haul while Ishan Pramodya captured two wickets.
The second session of the day was washed off due to rain but superb bowling by Chathura Jayanath saw the home team back in the pavilion for 45 runs in 28.5 overs. Chathura captured two wickets bowling left arm fast and seven wickets bowling left arm spin.
Debarawewa were 17/2 at stumps with skipper Ravindu Milan capturing both wickets. It would be any ones game when play resumes today.
