That Cricket is the language on the streets of Sri Lanka is a statement resonating in Perth with Honorary Consul Rosh Jalagge who was the Chief Guest continuing to sponsor the ‘Battle of the Blues’ between the old boys of Royal College and St Thomas’ College. The rivalry on the field and camaraderie after the game on 1 April 2023 with fellowship among all those attending the match laid the foundation for the continuance of the much loved tradition.

With old boys of St Thomas’ beating those of Royal by 36 runs evens the hype of the celebrations held in Colombo this year !
