Ton-up Hirun steers St Joseph’s to victory


Hirun Kapurubandara continued to torment the opposition bowlers when he slammed his third century in six days to help St. Joseph’s College coast to a convincing eight-wicket win over Royal College in their Under-19 Inter-Schools Limited Overs Cricket Tournament encounter played at Darley Road.

Hirun, following his centuries against Maris Stella College (109 n.o) and De Mazenod College (120), slammed another quick-fire 85-ball unbeaten 104 that included five boundaries and eight sixes as St. Joseph’s reached their target of 146 runs in the 30th over. (M. Shamil Amit)
