As expected the 107th Lovers’ Quarrel between Richmond and Mahinda fizzled out to a draw at the Galle International Stadium yesterday.
Mahinda on their resumption lost an early wicket with the addition of two runs having faced just under two overs with Asitha Sandaruwan failing to add anything to his overnight score of 43.
Asitha’s partner Hashan Kumuditha who was unbeaten on 22 together put on 67 runs for the second. From there on it was slow going as Hashan though holding his side despite losing partners at regular intervals.
