Colombo Stars vs Jaffna Kings T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, LPL 2021
Match 17 of the Lanka Premier League will be played between Colombo Stars and Jaffna Kings. Both teams are in great form and have the momentum with them. Who will prevail in this mouth-watering game? Read our preview to know more. The match will be played at R Premadasa Stadium and is set to get underway at 3:00 PM IST
After a slow start, Colombo Stars have picked up some momentum. They have won their last two games against Kandy Warriors and Galle Gladiators. Despite the wins, we feel the batters have still not hit their strides. Angelo Matthews' addition is a massive plus as he has looked solid at the top. Dinesh Chadimal has also played decent knocks. However, other batters have been a big let down. The bowers though have performed exceptionally well and have not allowed the oppositions to get over them.
Speaking about Jaffna Kings, they are on a roll after five back to back wins. The batters are in ominous form, while the bowlers have wreaked havoc in the opposition camps. At the moment, no team is looking even close to the Kings. Getting past Jaffna will be a daunting task for Colombo Stars.

CS vs JK Match Toss Prediction
Chasing teams have struggled in the tournament and with the wicket getting slow, it won’t be easy any further. Both skippers would like to put runs on the board and then try to defend it.
CS vs JK Pitch Report
The pitch has become very slow which makes it very tough to bat. Anything over 160 will be hard to chase.
Weather Report
The weather is likely to be a hindrance in the match. Plenty of rain is expected on the matchday which means that a shortened game is on the cards.

Colombo Stars Team News & Playing 11
CS Team News
Stars made a lot of changes in the last game and dropped Tom Banton, Lakshan Sandakan. We feel they need a bit more strength in their batting against Jaffna so Kusal Perera can be back in the team.

🏆 Colombo Stars vs Jaffna Kings Prediction
While Colombo Stars have picked up some form in the recent two games, they are still far away from a team that can beat Jaffna. The batting for Colombo Kings has struggled in the tournament and they are overly dependent on Angelo Matthews and Dinesh Chandimal. Jaffna, on the other hand, looks a brute force. It won’t be easy for any team to beat them. Jaffna Kings are big favourites here.
