Indika de Saram stars for Ragama CC
A round-up of the sixth-round matches of the Premier League Tournament in Sri Lanka
For a player of Indika de Saram's class, age is no barrier as he continues to fight for recognition in the national side. de Saram's effort against Moors SC. It was a display of batting which proved that de Saram was still determined to show the national selectors that he still has got the ability to score. Since breaking into the national team in 1999, and then losing his place two years later, de Saram has been fighting hard to regain his spot with some outstanding performances in domestic cricket. But his rewards have been meagre as the national selectors continued to ignore him. He led Sri Lanka to their first victory in the Hong Kong Sixes in 2007 and is one of the most hard-hitting batsmen on the domestic circuit today. For the past five years de Saram has continued playing cricket in the English leagues.
