Scorecard summary
Wayamba United 147/9(20 overs)
Uva Next 127/10(18.1 overs)

That is it from this game. Another one starts in twenty minutes.

Chathuranga Kumara is the Man of the Match for his three wickets

Mahela: "We were behind the eight ball after we lost the toss on that sticky wicket. Last six overs, the two left-handers got us a fighting total. Young guys put up their hands and performed, good to see the energy in the field. Senior lot will take the responsibility, young guys need to go out and have fun, that is how they will learn, with a relaxed mind."

Kandamby: "We did not capitalise after Jacob started really well. He is in very good form, gave us a brilliant start in the last game also. 147 is very much gettable, we did not bat well, did not do basics right."

Oram took the most wickets and made the most runs for his side, but still ended up on the losing side. Wayamba recovered from 18 for 3 and then kept taking wickets regularly during Uva's chase. Keep an eye out for Akila Dananjaya, 18, bowls a mix of offbreaks, legbreaks, sliders, the works.

W
Udana to Oram, OUT

that is it then, Oram is run out by some way, he has slowed down between the wickets over the years and was never going to make it after drilling the full delivery to extra cover, the throw arrived on target to the bowler, wonder why Oram was attempting the single to give strike to No 11

Jacob Oram run out (Jayawardene/Udana) 26 (19b 1x4 2x6) SR: 136.84

Kumara to Oram, 1 wide

Oram makes room outside leg, bowler goes wide with the angle outside off, it is called a wide, looked to be well inside the marker

Anush: "Feel bad about Oram here. Did phenomenally well with the ball, but that isn't enough to get his team over the line as his teammates have failed with the bat Now he has to do phenomenally well with the bat too."
