Abans Group and David Peiris Group ‘A’ registered wins to take the top two spots of Group ‘A’ of Tier ‘A’ of the CDB sponsored MCA T10 cricket tournament matches played on Saturday.

The game between Sanija Fertiliser and Abans Group was abandoned without a toss due to wet ground conditions at the Mercantile Cricket Association ground.

Half centuries by Lahiru Samarakone and Tharinda Nirmal helped the David Peiris team post 172/2 in their 10 overs after which their bowlers bowled out Senija Fertilisers for 113 runs with a ball to spare. Lakshan de Silva was the pick of the bowlers with a three wicket haul while Lahiru Samarakoon and Tharinda Nirmal captured two wickets each.

Twenty wickets fell in the final game of the day as Abans powered by a half ton by Savindu Uthsara defeated David Peiris 'A' by 32 runs.
