Lahiru Madushanka gatecrashed Chilaw Marians by a 54 off 21 ball cameo peppering as the giant sized right-hand all-rounder smashed 4 sixes and 5 across the ropes in a rain restricted 8-over SLC Major Clubs T20 Group B match at the CCC Grounds yesterday.
Madushanka helped Bloomfield overhaul Marians 66 for 4 wickets in the 8 overs with 11 balls to spare having fronted the early losses of Janith Liyanage and Hsitha Amarasinghe for first ball ducks, trapping the former leg before wicket and going on to clean bowl the latter.
Kasun Vidura top scored for Chilaw Marians unbeaten 26 off 14 balls inclusive of 3 boundaries and a six.
