31 Schools set for Sevens Showdown After ten weeks of exciting Schools Rugby League action that was followed up by three weeks of Milo Presidential knockouts

Fast bowler Lahiru Kumara at the age of 19 looks the brightest prospect in Sri Lankan cricket, but he was a late developer having first played hockey. It was at hockey that Kumara excelled at Sri Sumangala Vidyalaya in Kandy and after being brought into play cricket for the school’s under-15 team by Ranjit Colombage, he was selected for a tour of Malaysia. It was his performance in Malaysia that impressed Sri Lankan cricket enthusiasts and Trinity College Coach Sampath Perera, who is quick to spot talent, offered him a scholarship to country’s premier school. After playing just one game for Trinity’s 2nd XI, Perera pushed for his inclusion for the Big Match against St. Anthony’s College. Since then Kumara has not looked back.

From hockey to fast bowling, Lahiru Kumara’s impressive rise in Test cricket Not many fast bowlers have played for Sri Lanka at the age of 19. For that matter, not many cricketers have walked straight into the national team after school cricket.
