MCA Cricket: Division 'D' League weekly roundup

DFCC Bank were involved in a great escape, with a one wicket, last ball win over Hemas Group, thus registering their third successive win in the ongoing inaugural Coca Beverages Sri Lanka (Pvt) Ltd. sponsored – MCA 'D' Division 40 Over League Tournament 2019, continued last weekend. 

DFCC, earlier beat NDB Bank by two wickets and Colombo Dockyard by three wickets to remain as the only unbeaten team in group 'A'. 

DFCC owe their win to Ruchira Ekanayake, who remained unbeaten with a gutsy 60 runs. 

Up to date, Hemas Group has been living on the edge, as they won their first match by two runs over DPMC, then lost to Heshan Flexi by one wicket. 

The good work done by Madushanka Fonseka (62) and Shalinda Samaranayake (4 for 35) in the third game Vs. DFCC, thus went a begging. 

Central Finance scored their 3rd win with the highest team total for the week-end – 238/8 (40), as they beat Bodyline by 90 runs, riding on two half tons by Vikum Costha (66) and Nimesh Fernando (65).
