Royal pulled off a sensational 1 wicket win over their traditional rivals Thomians at the SSC Grounds.

Half centuries from Suwaris (81), Hapuhinna (51) and Ryan (51) was not enough to stop the Royal win. The Reid Avenue school was well supported with Mishara (68), Sanchintha (67), Madarasinghe (51) and a hurricane knock of an unbeaten 46 by Maushanka took them home by just one wicket.
