Madugalle chief guest

Former Sri Lanka Test captain and current ICC Chief Match Referee, Ranjan Madugalle will be the chief guest at this year’s Observer-Mobitel Schoolboy Cricketer of the Year contest.

Incidentally, it was Madugalle, then as one of the most outstanding batsmen at Royal College, who won the Observer Schoolboy Cricketer of the year title at the inaugural awards ceremony held in 1979. It would be a great honour to have Madugalle as the chief guest at next month’s mega awards ceremony.

It was Madugalle who led the Reid Avenue school at the centenary Royal-Thomian cricket encounter in 1979 and in the same year, he won the most prestigious schools cricket title.

It was this first ever Observer schoolboy star, who went on to captain NCC and Sri Lanka with distinction and now heads the eminent ICC panel of match referees.

Chairman of Sri Lanka Cricket and Sri Lanka’s World Cup winning captain in 1996, Arjuna Ranatunga, who too won the Observer Schoolboy Cricketer of the Year Award twice in 1980 and in 1982, will also grace the occasion.
