Dambulla Aura vs Jaffna Kings T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, LPL 2023
Dambulla Aura will take on Jaffna Kings in match 11 of the Lanka Premier League. The game will be played at Pallekele International Stadium in Pallekele and start at 7:30 PM IST.
Dambulla Aura have won two and lost two games. However, barring a game against B-Love Kandy, the team has played well. Their first defeat came in a game which they could have won, losing in a Super Over so overall, they have enjoyed a decent season.
Avishka Fernando, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Kusal Mendis, Kusal Perera and Dhananjaya de Silva, all have contributed heavily with the bat. The bowling does not have much venom but the likes of Noor Ahmed, Hayden Kerr and De Silva have done the job.
Jaffna Kings, on the other hand, have also won two and lost two games. The team’s batting has been inconsistent. Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Charith Asalanka and Towhid Hridoy, all have scored a fifty, but they have failed in the other three games.
Also, the team’s batting has not clicked together which has resulted in the team getting out for low scores. The bowling though has done well, with spinners Dunith Wellalage, Vijaykanth Vijaskanth and Maheesh Theekshana making life tough for opposition batters.

Jaffna Kings Team News & Playing 11
JK Team News
Shoaib Malik is done with his assignment in Global T20 Canada so he may be available for the team. However, the batter’s form was not good so he may not be included in the playing 11.
JK Key Players
- Rahmanullah Gurbaz- Rahmanullah Gurbaz is the team’s X-factor. He is someone who sets up a team for a big score. Gurbaz has scored one fifty but failed in the other three games. He needs to be a bit more consistent for the team.
- Charith Asalanka- Charith Asalanka like Gurbaz has performed well in one game but there is not much to show in the remaining games. The top-order batters need to ensure they give the middle-order batters a solid platform so that the team puts up a big score on the board.
- Maheesh Theekshana – The team’s leading spinner has been below par so far but has the skills to come back strong in the games to come.
JK Team Form
The defending champions have blown hot and cold, winning two and losing two games. The team’s batting looks a concern as the batters have not shown any consistency.
Jaffna Kings Predicted Playing 11
Rahmanullah Gurbaz (WK), Charith Asalanka, Priyamal Perera, Towhid Hridoy, David Miller, Dunith Wellalage, Thisara Perera (c), Maheesh Theekshana, Vijayakanth Viyaskanth, Nuwan Tushana, Nandre Burger
