Trinity College will be all out to end their first round high when they confront the unpredictable Science at home den being played at Pallekelle.
Trinity did have an uneven first round. They started off well against Zahira and later on thrashed the Antonians but failed to live up to the expectation against Isipathana and Joes. Isipathana game they played well leading with the fitness but their three quarters let them down. Against Joes they allowed too many points for the Maradana outfit and never could recover in the later half.
Today they hold the edge and looking to make some changes in their starting line-up. Skipper, Reshan Bandaranayake played well in majority of their games leading from the front and taking responsibility on his shoulders. Their linkman Trehan Karunanayake needs to be fast in feeding the three quarters, if not they will put pressure on to themselves. Geeshapa Kularatne, Nimesha Ekanayake and Mahdee Abdullah will need to play at their best. Lenox Calyanaratne has recovered from injury might take part in the later half.
Science will heavily depend on Shashin Munasinghe, Ruchira Kavinda and Dulaj Kalhara to be on top. But they are a dangerous side with speedy three quarter line but lack in mobility in their forwards.
