Colombo beat Badurilia 197 to 94 at the Major Clubs T20 on Tuesday. The visitors made light work of chasing with plenty of room to spare. By then the result was already clear enough.
Badurilia sit seventh with five games and two points — one win and four defeats. Colombo are third after four matches, two wins and two losses for four points. The gap between them tells the story.
Badurilia have been running out of games without finding consistency. Their last five results show losses to Nondescripts, Murs, Tamil Union and Poliss Sporta, with only Kurunegala Youth giving them a scare. Things came to a head against Colombo.
Colombo came in with mixed recent form. They beat Panadura by one run but lost twice to Murs, then edged past Berger in a tight contest. They saw the game out comfortably here.
The win keeps Colombo in the hunt for a top-three finish. Badurilia are now three points behind Colombo with a game in hand, though they will need to improve quickly.
