Giant killers Vidyartha College led by Arosh Ratnayake will be returning to the field after a fortnight when they play Dharmaraja College at Nittawela tomorrow in their Dialog schools rugby league Under 20 encounter.
The “Tigers” following their remarkable win against St. Peter’s and the added confidence that comes with it will now be considered a genuine threat by any school. A simple revisit to the St. Peter’s game shows that it was not any individual brilliance but a pure team effort from the gritty neighbour’s of the champion Kandy SC outfit that dismantled the opponent’s game on a rainy evening at Nittawela.
Meanwhile Dharmaraja although running out of steam against St. Peter’s in the latter half, ended on equal terms with Science in their next outing. Led by co-captains in Saumya Wijesiri and Thenuka Wickremasinghe, Rajans are on the way up and a better organised defence could bring out the desired result. Referee: Gihan Yatawara
