The Kandy Sports Club continued their winning form when they beat CH & FC by 39 points (6 tries, 3 conversions, 1 penalty) to 28 points (4 tries, 4 conversions) at the Racecourse ground last evening.

At the short breather, the lads from the Central Hills led 24/7.

Despite collecting their third bonus point in three games, Kandy’s performances were far from top class. CH & FC, after conceding 24 points in the initial half, came back and scored three converted tries where Kandy could reply with only 15 points.

Kandy scored their tries through Dinal Ekanyake (2), Nigel Ratwatte, Srinarth Sooriyabandara, Wajid Fawmy, and Kavindu Perera. Tari converted 3 tries and put over a penalty as well.

Meanwhile, for CH & FC, their tries were scored by Pulasthi Dissanayake, Nirosh Perera, Janith Chandimal, and Thanuja Dilshan. Janith Chandimal converted all four tries.
