  • Vidyartha 'Tigers' on the Prowl This Season
    Thursday 26th April, 2012 15 BY RAVI NAGAHAWATTE idyartha College Kandy is experi- Schools rugby logbook encing a boom in rugby and what’s Vgreat is that there is a lot of help for the boys wearing the double blue and yellow jerseys to cement their place in Group A of the Division 1 Tournament. The Kandy school has a couple of big boys who look ferocious and coach Anil Jayasinghe says that given how they Vidyartha ‘Tigers’ on played against Isipatana in the maiden fixture in 15-a-side rugby this season, last week, the team should provide some shocks this season. That match ended in a thrilling 19-all draw and Jayasinghe is happy about the the prowl this season performance, because everybody rated the Green Shirts as the favourite team to walk away with the match. But if you perform an analysis on Vidyartha’s start to the 2012 rugby season, that perform- ance against Isipatana is no flash in the pan. “Vidyartha met Isipatana twice this season in sevens rugby and we beat them on both occasions. Those past experi- ences against Isipatana this season would have tremendously helped the boys to build their confidence. The other reason behind that great performance is that the school has 11 seniors, who helped them win the Division 1 Group B last season and earn promotion to the top group in the league,” explained Jayasinghe. Vidyartha doesn’t enjoy the best of facilities when compared to other popu- lar rugby playing schools. However, what’s inspiring is that a group compris- ing old boys, parents and well-wishers has made a commitment to help the school’s rugby set-up and work towards this cause through an organization called the Vidyartha Rugby Development Group.

  • Under Fire Sri Lanka Take on New Zealand Today Have One Win Each, but Both Tourists Have Won with the Bonus Points Contrary to Sri Lanka’S Win Without the Bonus Point
    Late City Edition Thursday 19th August, 2010 Randiv banned and fined, Dilshan loses match fee Under fire Sri Lanka take on New Zealand today have one win each, but both tourists have won with the bonus points contrary to Sri Lanka’s win without the bonus point. New Zealand are mindful that Sri Lanka have been dis- tracted in the last few days due to the no ball controversy. Their captain Ross Taylor also reminded that after Sri Lanka played two games in a row they will be a bit tired. “The Sri Lankans played two games in a row which has been tough and shows that the team that has played a couple of games in a row usually doesn’t win. I guess they will be a bit tired after the tough series against India. I guess that is an area where we will exploit,” Taylor said. With Randiv banned, Sri Lanka could opt for left-arm spinner Rangana Herath. Ajantha Mendis too could get a game as the New Zealanders have seen very little of him.
