Wayamba win by 74 runs, a wonderful performance with the ball and the score of 144 looked tough for Central Districts when they lost 5 wickets for 16 runs. Three wickets each for Udana and Mendis, a hat-trick for Udana of two legal deliveries. Herath picked up two wickets for 7 runs in 4 overs, best economic bowler in this years Champions league.

Isuru Udana picks up the Man-of-the-Match for his hat-trick. "I am really happy and I don't have any words. The wicket was slow and it worked for me."

How: "It was disappointing, a disastrous batting performance, we got exposed to some good slow bowling, we learnt some lessons and hope to come back stronger next time."

Mubarak: "We really wanted to win today. We felt 144 was less and we got bogged down in the middle overs. Udana's hat-trick put them on the back foot. The wicket was on the slower side and it suited our bowling. There are lot of areas we need to work on, inexperience in the middle order. About the catch, they probably stick or don't."

Thanks for being with us, do not miss the thriller that is coming up, Chennai Super Kings against the Warriors.
