Nalanda College, Colombo has been playing first XI cricket with Trinity College, Kandy since 1978.[1]

Wisden Cricketers of the Year recipients in the caliber of Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara were educated namely at Nalanda College, Colombo[2] and Trinity College, Kandy.[3] Also both Mahela and Kumar are the current holders for Test cricket partnerships (for any wicket) 624.[4][5]

As a token of appreciation to those two cricketers the annual encounter between Nalanda and Trinity is played for Mahela-Sanga Trophy (Sinhala: මහේල සංගා කුසලානය) since 2019 with the theme “Spirit of Cricket Legacy for Future Generations”.[6][7]
