Moneragala, to a commanding 25-run victory which secured them the Merril J. Fernando Challenge Trophy at Wesley College grounds, Campbell Park yesterday.
Sampath bludgeoned the ball to all corners of the field to remain unbeaten on 108 at the end of the innings, after his side took first lease of the wicket. His effort, along with that of Chandana Deshapriya who scored 59, launched his team to a total of 198 for 2 in their allotted 20 overs.
In reply, CEI could only register 173 for 6 in their full quota of overs after some tight bowling from Prabath Tissa, who finished with figures of 2 for 27.
The Merril J. Fernando Challenge Trophy sees the participation of visually impaired players from six teams.
