cricket became popular among the people in the colonies of the british empire. this applied to sri lanka (then ceylon) as it was a british colony. since st. thomas college, mt. lavinia and royal college, colombo started to play cricket, large schools in kandy, galle, matara and jaffna also included cricket in their sports programs. gradually, cricket became one of the entertaining sports wherever it was played in sri lanka, and one of the most popular games amongst the public. by this time, the sri lankan government realized the importance of developing cricket as a national sport; and as a result various development projects, such as constructing grounds with all necessary infrastructure facilities and encouraging more schools to play cricket by providing necessary funds, as cricket was an expensive game, were undertaken by then governments with a view to making school cricket a nursery for forming a strong national team to represent sri lanka at the international level.
