In a brutal batting display against a mediocre bowling attack, Moors SC amassed a mammoth 652/8 declared against Negombo CC in a first class game at Braybrooke Place yesterday, reminding strongly the need to overhaul country’s weak domestic cricket structure.
On a good batting wicket, Moors cashed in, in abundance with Ramesh Mendis who finished day one with a career-best unbeaten 205, scored a maiden triple, giving a slap in the face to those resisting a much-needed change to the domestic competitions to raise the declining standards of the game.
