A fantastic innings from Falcons, who had contributions from each of the five batters who came to the crease. Fletcher and Nissanka put on a good 48-run stand to start, then Mendis built through the middle and set Falcons up beautifully for the finish. Bandara took the baton from there, and struck 42 not out off 22 - his running lightning fast, as you'd expect.
They didn't quite breach that 200-mark, but an excellent total on this track nonetheless. They'll back themselves to defend this, with the likes of Hasaranga and Fabian Allen in their ranks.
Madushka Balasuriya will be back shortly with the second innings.

Pramod Madushan to Bandara, 2 runs, full on the stumps, hit down to long on, but the ball's not traveled fast to that fielder, and the batters scamper a second.
