Sri Lankan CC made several changes and last time out, altering the batting order to good effect too. After their big win, they may be unchanged this time.
Sri Lankan CC started with a defeat to Sri Lankan Lions Limassol, suffering a seven-wicket defeat after they were bowled out for 136. Last time out, however, they were much improved with the bat – buoyed by Prasad Sungara’s 85 from 34 balls. Their total of 192/9 proved far too much for Nicosia Tigers, as the defending champions posted 131/9 in reply.
