Tom Banton had an impressive run in the Abu Dhabi T10 League and scored 180 runs in 8 games. He is most likely to bat in the top order and will get the best conditions to bat. He is our pick for Colombo Stars' top scorer.
Bhanuka Rajapaksa scored a brilliant 56 in the last game. He was very impressive in the Abu Dhabi T10 League as well and scored 249 runs in 9 games. Given the form he is in, it's a great bet to back him as Galle’s top scorer.
Mohammad Hafeez is one player who can be backed to win the Player of the Match award. Initially, we thought he might not bowl in the tournament but he completed his quota of overs in the last game and picked two wickets for 11 runs. If he bowls his full overs, he will most likely end up with few wickets, and we all know how good he is with the bat so he is a great pick for Player of the Match.

Colombo Stars vs Galle Gladiators T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, LPL 2021
Colombo Stars will make their debut in the Lanka Premier League with this game. The team will be keen to get off to a winning start. The franchise has compiled a very strong squad, with the likes of Chris Gayle, Tom Banton, Sherfane Rutherford, Dinesh Chandimal Dhananjaya de Silva as willow-wielders. In the bowling department, Keemo Paul, Naveen ul Haq, Dushmantha Chameera, Akila Dananjaya are some very good options. Overall, the team looks balanced and if the players play to their potential, they can give other teams a run for their money.
Galle Gladiators, on the other hand, have already played a game. They comprehensively defeated Jaffna Kings by 54 runs in the tournament opener. The top order failed to get going but a half-century by Bhanuka Rajapaksa and 42 by Samit Patel helped them post a competitive 164-7 before the bowlers bundled out Jaffna for 110. Galle couldn't have expected a more explosive start to their campaign. They will be looking to ride on the momentum and take an early lead in the tournament.

CS vs GG Match Toss Prediction
It's a tricky call. Chasing will be difficult as the wicket gets slower in the second innings. However, if there is dew, teams would love to bowl first. By the time of toss, teams will get to know if there will be dew or not and they can make the decision accordingly.
CS vs GG Pitch Report
The pitch is good for batting. However, we saw it get a bit slow in the second inning of the first game. Spinners will be very effective in the second inning, especially if there is no dew.
Weather Report
The weather will be clear, with temperature in the pleasant 20s.

Colombo Stars Team News & Playing 11
CS Team News
The team will be expecting big performances from players like Tom Banton, Sherfane Rutherford, Chris Gayle, who are coming off from a decent Abu Dhabi T10 League. There are few doubts about the participation of Angelo Matthews due to injury.
CS Key Players
Tom Banton - As mentioned earlier, Tom Banton had a decent run in the Abu Dhabi T10 League. He is a batter that loves to take the attack to the opposition. On his day, he is a match-winner and Colombo will be expecting some match-winning performances from him.
Chris Gayle - Chris Gayle hasn't been at his best but we all know what he is capable of. In a 20-20 game, Gayle is always a big player and can turn the tables pretty quickly.
Akila Dananjaya - The spinner could prove to be a handful on this wicket, especially if he gets dry conditions to bowl.
CS Team Form
Colombo Stars will be making their debut in the LPL 2021.
Colombo Stars Predicted Playing 11
Kusal Perera, Chris Gayle, Tom Banton, Sherfane Rutherford, Dinesh Chandimal, Pathum Nissanka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Akila Dananjaya, Seekuge Prasanna, Dushmantha Chameera, Keemo Paul/Naveen ul Haq
CLS vs GDD Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
Kusal Perera and Ben Dunk are two players we are picking from this section. Perera has to be in the team with all the match-winning skills he has, while Dunk is a very dangerous player in this format of the game.
Batsmen
Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Kusal Mendis, Tom Banton, Sherfane Rutherford will comprise our batting. Tom Banton and Rutherford have made it to the list after consistent performances in the Abu Dhabi T10 League, while Rajapaksa is also in very good form. Mendis can also be a match-winner on his day.
All-rounders
Mohammad Hafeez and Samit Patel will be our all-rounders. Both players had brilliant outings with the ball in the last game and picked 2 and 3 wickets respectively. Patel scored handy runs with the bat as well, while Hafeez's skills with the bat need no introduction. Both players are value picks.
Bowlers
Our bowling lineup will have Dushmantha Chameera, who has been in very good form of late and even bagged an IPL contract after his performance in the T20I series against India. Isuru Udana is a great pick as he can get wickets in heaps in the latter end of the innings when batters are trying to score runs. Meanwhile, the conditions will suit Akila Dananjaya.
Captain/Vice-captain
Samit Patel will be our skipper, while Mohammad Hafeez can be backed as his deputy
CS vs GG Dream11 Team Prediction
Batsmen:Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Kusal Mendis. Sherfane Rutherford, Tom Banton
We think Galle might want to consider Tabraiz Shamsi for the match. He didn't play the first game which was a surprise but if he is fit, he should be in the team.
GG Key Players
Bhanuka Rajapaksa - Carrying on his Abu Dhabi T10 League form, Rajapaksa scored a match winning 56 against Kings. He is in middle of a purple patch and would be keen to stretch it for a bit longer.
Mohammad Hafeez - Hafeez bowling his full quota of overs is a huge plus for the team. His bowling will be more than handy in these conditions while his prowess with the bat is second to none. In short, he is someone who will win Gladiators matches on his own.
Samit Patel - Patel has been in phenomenal form of late. He doesn't play international cricket but is an active cricketer in T20 Leagues. He scored 42 runs in the last game and also took 3 wickets.
GG Team Form
Gladiators got their Lanka Premier League campaign off to a winning start and will be keen to continue it in the next game as well.
Galle Gladiators Predicted Playing 11
Danushka Gunathilaka, Kusal Mendis, Mohammad Hafeez, Ben Dunk (wk), Bhanuka Rajapaksa (c), Samit Patel, Lahiru Madushanka, Isuru Udana, Pulina Tharanga, Noor Ahmad, Nuwan Thushara/Tabraiz Shamsi

Who will win CS vs GG T20 Match?
The bookies are backing Colombo Stars to win. But Colombo hasn’t played a game so we are not sure how they will fare as a team. On the other hand, Galle delivered a dominating performance in the last game. They are a much safer bet.
Galle Gladiators come into the match after an astounding win in the first game. They have the winning momentum by their side and most of the players are in form. Colombo also have a few batters who had a decent run in the Abu Dhabi T10 League. However, their bowling looks slightly vulnerable given that the bowlers have not played much of late. They may take some time to adjust to the conditions. Galle will start the match as favourites.
