Sohaib Maqsood can be expected to start well. The batter had a decent outing in the PSL and even got a call in the Pakistan squad for England tour. He has proven himself as a decent batter. Back him as Dambulla top scorer.
Rovman Powell comes into the tournament after a sizzling show in the Abu Dhabi T10 League. The batter was the lone bright spot in a gloomy season for Northern Warriors and consistently scored runs for his team. Back him as Kandy Warriors’ top scorer.
Imran Tahir, the veteran, has a great record in T20 cricket. Even with the age not by his side, Tahir has done remarkably well. The conditions might suit him as well. The probability of him taking the most wickets is very high. He can be backed as Dambulla’s highest wicket-taker.

Dambulla Giants vs Kandy Warriors T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, LPL 2021
Dambulla Giants will kick off their Lanka Premier League campaign against Kandy Warriors at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on December 6 at 3:00 PM IST.
This will be the first appearance of the Dambulla Giants and Kandy Warriors in the tournament. Both teams boast of solid players. Dambulla have the likes of Najibullah Zadran, Dasun Shanaka, Rilee Roussow, Sohaib Maqsood, as some of the few prominent international batters. However, Zadran and Rossouw are currently part of the Abu Dhabi T10 League thus there is no clarity whether they will be available for the game or not. Meanwhile, the bowling will rely on Imran Tahir, Chamika Karunaratne, Nuwan Pradeep and Marchant de Lange.
Kandy Warriors also have some good T20 Players by their side. The likes of Rovman Powell, Charith Asalanka, Ahmed Shehzad, Samiullah Shinwari, Angelo Perera, Asela Gunaratne are dangerous players in this format of the game. The batting is backed by a quality bowling lineup that comprises Mohammad Irfan, Lahiru Kumara, and Binura Fernando.

DG vs KW Match Toss Prediction
The template of the tournament could be to win the toss and chase in the evening game because of the dew. But it would be fair to bat first in day games.

Dambulla Giants Team News & Playing 11
DG Team News
Some key players like Rilee Rossouw and Najibullah Zadran could miss this match due to Abu Dhabi T10 League, which ended on December 4. However, with Sohaib Maqsood, Niroshan Dickwella, Dasun Shanaka, they have enough quality in their side.
DG Key Players
Dasun Shanaka - Dasun Shanaka was handed Sri Lanka’s captaincy in T20Is. The reason for the same was his consistent performances in domestic cricket. Shanaka recently had dome decent outings in the Abu Dhabi T10 League, both with bat and ball. He is expected to play a big role.
Sohaib Maqsood - Maqsood made a name for himself in the second leg of PSL and was picked for the Pakistan squad for England series. Since then, he hasn’t played much cricket but has already proved himself as a genuine match-winner. Dambulla Giants will be expecting some big runs from him.
Imran Tahir - The veteran has plenty of tricks up his sleeves and will pose a stiff challenge to the opposition batters.
DG Team Form
This is the first season of the Dambulla Giants in the Sri Lanka Premier League.
DMG vs KDF Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
Niroshan Dickwella should be in your team. He is a solid batter and the best option available in the category.
Batsmen
Rovman Powell comes into the LPL after an astounding Abu Dhabi T10 League so he is a great pick. Sohaib Maqsood is another batter who can give plenty of fantasy points. He has proven his skills in the PSL. Charith Asalanka has been magnificent for Sri Lanka in the limited games he has played. He was Sri Lanka’s best batter in the 20-20 World Cup. Angelo Perera also shone with the bat in T10 League
All-rounders
Asela Gunaratne, Dasun Shanaka and Kamindu Mendis will be our all-rounders. All are big hitters and can score some brisk runs, while they are also very skilful with the ball.
Bowlers
Imran Tahir, Marchant de Lange and Lahiru Kumara will be our bowlers. All are quality bowlers and have enough experience of playing in Lankan conditions. Tahir is a veteran and won’t be easy to tackle with all his variations, while Lange and Kumara can bowl quick which is always a handy skill to have.
Captain/Vice-captain
Rovman Powell can be backed as our skipper as he has been in top form of late, while Dasun Shanaka can contribute with bat and well as ball thus he is a great pick for the vice-captain.
All Rounder:Asela Gunaratne, Dasun Shanaka(VC), Kamindu Mendis
Wicket Keeper:Niroshan Dickwella
Bowler:Imran Tahir, Lahiru Kumara, Marchant de Lange
Kandy Falcons Team News & Playing 11
KW Team News
Kandy Warriors have a very strong core of the team and all their players will be available for selection.
KW Key Players
Rovman Powell - Powell was in sizzling form in the Abu Dhabi T10 League and scored 305 runs in 10 games. While his team Chennai Braves had poor outings, Powell stood tall for them. He would be keen to continue his form in Lanka Premier League as well.
Angelo Perera - Perera too played for Chennai Braves in the recent season of the Abu Dhabi T10 League and played some very good knocks. He scored 187 runs in 10 games at a strike rate of 168. A similar kind of performance will be expected of him in the LPL 2021 season as well.
Lahiru Kumara - A lot will be expected of the senior bowler in the tournament. Kumara has fallen out of the pack of Sri Lanka’s bowling attack and a good season of LPL will get him back in the reckoning.
KW Team Form
Kandy Warriors will also be making their first appearance in the tournament.
These are two new franchises and have not played before in the Lanka Premier League
Dambulla Giants vs Kandy Falcons Betting Odds
Who will win DG vs KW T20 Match?
The bookies have mixed opinion about the favourites to win this match. They have given equal odds to both teams. The picture will get clearer after the first game.
Both teams are playing the first season of the tournament and will be keen to start on a positive note. On paper, we see Kandy Warriors as a slightly better team. They have more depth in the batting, while the bowling also looks pretty decent. Moreover, quite a few of their players are fresh from Abu Dhabi T10 League and are in rhythm thus Warriors are the team we are betting to win.
