That's a wrap for our coverage of this one, though do stay tuned for Madushka Balasuriya's report, and remember to follow our coverage of Tuskers vs Gladiators tonight. Cheers!
That result means that Jaffna Stallions will definitely finish third, and will play the loser of the Colombo-Dambulla game tomorrow in their semi-final. Colombo will finish top of the group if they win that. The most important game comes later this evening, with Kandy and Galle playing each other in a virtual quarter-final.
Don't be deceived by the margin of victory: this was always Colombo Kings' game to lose. Laurie Evans hit the first hundred in Lanka Premier League history, and the second of his career, to underpin a total of 173 for 4, and despite a slight scare from Thisara Perera, the Kings always looked likely to defend that total. Qais Ahmad and Izy Udana were the stand-out bowlers, while Russell made important breakthroughs despite being very expensive.
