The Royal-Thomian, or "Battle of the Blues," is Sri Lanka's historic annual cricket match between Royal College and St. Thomas' College, the second-longest uninterrupted cricket series globally, played since 1879 for the D.S. Senanayake Memorial Shield. It's a major cultural event known for its fierce rivalry, unique traditions like the Cycle Parade, and celebration of brotherhood, transcending cricket to become a symbol of heritage for the two prestigious Colombo schools, with its history deeply intertwined with Sri Lankan cricket.
