A Stunning Victory - Sri Lanka Tour

“Sports do not build character. They reveal it.” aptly said by Heywood Brown and proved by  Dipsites as they showcased their agility and strength  while participating in the Aaron's Cricket Ground in Colombo, Sri Lanka on January 4, 2020, they did not disappoint. Delhi Public School-Bopal left everyone spellbound through their laudable performance as they beat Althuriya Club-Sri Lanka by 70 runs.

We are extremely proud of the students and congratulate them heartily. Dev Shodhan was the top scorer with 87 runs and was recognised as the ‘Best Batsman’ while Yash Sheth was appreciated as the ‘Best Fielder’. The ‘Man of the Match’,  Pritish Saraf took 3 wickets and recognised as the ‘Best Bowler’,Vedant Limbasiya took 4 wickets to lead the school to a staggering victory by 7 wickets in the first match of the tour.

All our best wishes are with the students and we hope to see the team win the upcoming matches as well with their hard work, dedication, perseverance and most importantly, teamwork.

The students were in seventh heaven as they recalled the triumph and shared their experience.
