The fickle weather continued to hold the whip hand, as two more games in the 25th Singer-MCA Premier League Knockout Tournament got washed out without a ball being bowled on Sunday (22).
The two matches were of LB Finance and HNB at MCA and Teejay Lanka and Kanrich Finance at Colts.
So far out of six matches five have suffered the same fate.
LB Finance (League No.4) and Teejay Lanka (League No.6), thus walked through to the semi-finals, by virtue of having held the higher position in the League Table.
The five unfortunate teams to get eliminated were Hayleys Group, DIMO, Sampath Bank, HNB and Kanrich Finance.
The weather was most cruel on Kanrich Finance, who finished last in the League table without a single win, but created a huge upset by eliminating the No.3 team, John Keells October 19 at Moratuwa.
The semi-finals will take place on Wednesday (25) with MAS Intimates Unichela (League Winner) meeting LB Finance at MCA and Commercial Credit and Finance (League No.2) taking on Teejay Lanka at NCC.
Thursday (26) has been kept as the reserve day.
The final will be played on Sunday (29) at the MCA.
The Premier League will conclude with the T20 tournament with the same 10 teams starting on November 1.
