The MCA Veterans (O-40) under the captaincy of the incumbent MCA President, Roshan Iddamalgoda will go flat out to regain the glittering “Tyrone de Silva” Challenge Trophy which they lost last year to Lanka Cavaliers at their 15th edition of their Annual Twenty-20 cricket encounter, coming up this Sunday, September 16 at the Bloomfield C&AC grounds, commencing 2.00 pm.
Lanka Cavaliers will be hosting the match this year and they will be led by Nalliah Devarajan.
In the previous encounter that took place on July 22, 2017 at the MCA grounds, Lanka Cavaliers, led by Basil Jayawardena regained the trophy with a comfortable 08 wickets win.
Former MCA President, Tyrone de Silva, who donated the trophy during his tenure in 2004 will be the chief guest at the awards ceremony and fellowship.
The series up to the last encounter stands at 8/4 in favour of MCA Veterans. In 2006 the match ended in a tie and in 2014 both teams were declared as joint winners.
