Interested in taking up cricket? Men need not apply..

Whilst all eyes remain focused on the men's national eleven women's cricket in Sri Lanka steadily improves with little or no attention.

I recently came across a posting advertising coaching lessons for women at the Palink School of Cricket.

The school boasts of unearthing over 100 top class players and over a dozen national players including two national captains since 1998.

This scorecard outlines the school's ability to produce top players; 26 year old Sumudu Ishari Fernando being the highlight for me.

The round up of the Sri Lanka Women's Cricket Limited Over Tournament, 2007/08 season can be found here.
