Indoor Cricket Net Prices in Colombo (2026)
What an indoor cricket net actually costs per hour in Colombo in 2026 — off-peak vs evening rates, bowling-machine add-ons, and how to find the cheapest available slot.
An indoor cricket net in Colombo costs roughly LKR 2,500 per hour off-peak in 2026, rising by around LKR 500 in the evenings (from 6pm) when demand is highest. A bowling machine, where offered, is usually a separate add-on. Exact rates vary by venue, surface and area — the numbers below are from real Colombo pricing, and live rates always show on each venue's page.
How much does an indoor cricket net cost per hour?
For a standard enclosed net with a true artificial-turf pitch and proper lighting, expect around LKR 2,500/hour off-peak and LKR 3,000/hour at peak (evenings and weekends). Premium venues with newer surfaces or air conditioning sit at the top of that band.
Why are evenings more expensive?
Evenings (6pm–10pm) and weekends are when everyone wants to play and the number of nets is fixed. That's why most venues add a peak surcharge of about LKR 500 — it's supply and demand, not a hidden fee. If you're flexible, a weekday afternoon net is noticeably cheaper.
Does a bowling machine cost extra?
Usually, yes. Where a venue offers one, it's typically a separate hourly add-on on top of the net rate. If you want machine practice, confirm it's available and priced before you book — not every net has one.
How do I find the cheapest available net?
- Play off-peak — before 4pm on a weekday is the cheapest window.
- Compare live rates across nearby venues instead of calling each one.
- Book a recurring weekly slot if you practise regularly; some venues discount it.
