That is all we have from this match. One day rest before we are back in action on the 5th of this month as Galle Marvels will face Jaffna Kings. The action shifts to Dambulla. Join us at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT) and earlier for the build up. Cheers!
Niroshan Dickwella says he is glad to perform but he made a mistake to throw away the wicket. Tells he just tried to express himself, adds Hales is getting used to the wicket. Mentions they wanted to bowl first so actually it was a good toss to lose. Tells the wicket was dry and had a lot of help for the spinners.
Thisara Perera says it was a bad day for them but a lot of positives from this game. Shares he doesn't want to blame anyone and hopes to do better in the next match. Ends by appreciating the crowd.
Isuru Udana, the Player of the Match, says he wants to give his award to Sahan Arachchige as it will boost his confidence. Tells there was pressure when he came to bat but they planned to target Glenn Phillips and it was the main reason they got to the target.
...Presentation...
Galle Marvels knew they were short of runs but their bowlers were on the money from the start. They took three wickets inside the powerplay and continued to take wickets regularly. It came down to the last over, Isuru Udana kept his cool and played one of his best matches to help his team win match. Colombo Strikers were in the match with the bat, a couple of batters got off to a good start but none stayed out there till the end. They will be gutted as it was a potentially gettable score.
A brilliant performance from Galle Marvels and they go on top of the table with two wins in two. Galle Marvels deserved the win. They were better with the bowl and the field. With the bat, they were 94 for 6 at one stage but Isuru Udana and Sahan Arachchige's partnership turned out to be the match winning one. Udana came in with intent and changed the course of the game. Sahan Arachchige fell but Udana scored a fine fifty.
