Ravi Thamotheran and Majuran also chipped in with useful contributions remaining unbeaten to seal the victory.
In the second match against a young Swiss Colts side, SLCCG were again in sparkling form to chalk up a 5 wicket win with 4 overs to spare. Swiss Colts were restricted to 131 for 8 in 20 overs with skipper Lalantha bowling a nagging line and length to capture 3 for 18 in his allotted 4 overs.
