Date | 4th August |
Time | 3:00 PM IST, 9:30 AM GMT, 3:00 PM Local Time |
Venue | Pallekele International Stadium, Pallekele |
B-Love Kandy have been very poor in the two games they have played. They were shot down for a mere 97 against Galle Titans and will need a quick turnaround to revive their campaign. Senior players like Dinesh Chandimal and Angelo Matthews will have to perform well.
Meanwhile, Dambulla Aura have been brilliant. They lost to Galle Titans in the super over but bounced back to thrash Jaffna Kings by eight wickets. The likes of Kusal Perera, Avishka Fernando, Kusal Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva have done well.
The pitch will be helpful for the spinners and run-scoring won’t be easy. A score of around 150 can be hard to chase.
The weather will be clear and the temperature will range between the high 20s. There is no threat of rain.
Dinesh Chandimal (wk), Kamindu Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Ashen Bandara, Asif Ali, Wanindu Hasaranga (c), Aamer Jamal, Isuru Udana, Mohammad Hasnain, Mujeeb Ur Rahman Thanuka Dabare/ Dushmantha Chameera
Kusal Mendis (c & wk), Avishka Fernando, Kusal Perera, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Dhananjaya de Silva, Alex Ross, Hayden Kerr, Binura Fernando, Shahnawaz Dahani, Ravindu Fernando, Noor Ahmad
B-Love Kandy have been poor but they are probably playing their best team. We don’t expect many changes. If there is one, the team may look to bring in Dushmantha Chameera but they will have to drop a batter for the same. Dambulla Aura should stick to the same team.
Both teams have won three games against each other in LPL.

The leading run-scorer of the LPL, Fernando scored 52 in the last game. He is someone who relies on consistency, so he is a good pick for the fantasy teams.
Perera has played well in both games. He scored 40 in the first game and 34 in the second game. A big inning from him seems around the corner.
The wickets will be helpful for the spinners and Aura will be expecting a good show by Noor Ahmed who is one of the best bowlers going around in cricket.
Wanindu Hasaranga will have to perform well if B-Love Kandy have to make a turnaround. Hasaranga needs to come good not just with the ball, but he will have to score runs for the team as well.
The conditions are helpful for bowlers so it will not take much time before Mujeeb finds himself in the wickets column. He is a very clever spinner and B-Love Kandy rely a lot on him.
