Softlogic scrape through 3DH Intl

-

Softlogic’s Vikum Sanjaya and Chamod Battage sharing seven-wickets between them with the former picking up three helped their side edge out 3DH Internatio­nal by only three-runs in the MCA 'B' Division encounter yesterday. Played at Moratuwa, Sofltogic posted 194 in the 39-overs-a-side match. In the batting lineup too, Sanjaya cracked a cameo of 36, in which, 24 came off from sixes alone.

Though 3DH’s chase were boosted by the matches’ only half-centurion of Miranga Wickramage’s 51, others batters failed to fire and let down the chase. 3DH needing only four in the penultimat­e over, only fell prey to Battage's spell, who picked up two of his four victim.

Softlogic 194 all out (38.4) (Vikum Sanjaya 36, Rizwan Ghulam 32, Chamod Battage 31, Miranga Wickramage 3/44, Kavinda Ishwara 2/30)

3DH Internatio­nal 191 all out (38) (Miranga Wickramage 51, Chamod Battage 4/24, Vikum Sanjaya 3/44)
