A rare feat occurred at Halswell Domain on Saturday with Halswell Division 1 spin bowler Niluka Kandaddarage claiming all ten wickets to fall in an innings. Not only that, he claimed five in the other innings to end with 15 for the day (and match).
In their first innings Sydenham were dismissed for 72, with Kandaddarage taking 5/8.
Halswell then batted posting 206.
It was in the Sydenham second innings that he claimed the historic 10 wicket display taking 10/16 off 9 overs. Four were bowled, four were caught with two leg before wicket's.
The two-day match was completed in one day.
