It played first-class cricket 1998 to 2001. It was demoted to Division II in 2002, and to Division III in 2014.[1] The Uyanwatte ground is home to Matara Cricket Club.

HistoryThe first official team was registered in 1904 and consisted of mainly European tea planters. Matara is a town in the southern province of Sri Lanka.
