Information seems to be incorrect

In the Wikipedia article of

Sinhalese Sports Club (SSC) Ground states "In 1899, after a combined school cricket team, composed mainly of cricketers from Royal College, S. Thomas' College and Wesley College beating Colts Cricket Club by a one run decided form an all-Sinhalese club, and thus found Sinhalese Sports Club" whereas the official SSC website's history page states "In March 1899 the Combined Colleges (which happened to be an all Singhalese eleven IX) lost by one run to Colts CC". The latter gives exactly the opposite idea. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Navakawiki (talk • contribs) 02:58, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply
