Galle Titans Team News & Playing 11
GT Team News
Galle Titans will step on the park with the same team that featured in Qualifier 1. The team did lose to Dambulla Aura but we don’t see them tinkering with the combination in a crucial knockout game.
GT Key Players
- Lasith Croospulle – Croospulle played a brilliant knock of 80 runs against Dambulla Aura. The batter has consistently scored runs for the team this season. He has 218 runs to his name in LPL 2023.
- Shakib Al Hasan – There is no bigger match-winner than Shakib Al Hasan in the Titans’ team. He has been below par so far in the tournament but big players do come good in big games. Shakib has not been among the wickets, but he has been very economical.
- Seekkuge Prasanna – Prasanna could be the game-changer for Galle Titans. The spinners are a real threat on this pitch and Prasanna has been bowling well in recent few games. He has the momentum with him so a match-winning performance cannot be counted out.
GT Team Form
Galle Titans have blown hot and cold. They won four and lost four games in the league stage then suffered a big defeat to Dambulla Aura in Qualifier 1.

B-Love Kandy Team News & Playing 11
BLK Team News
No major changes are expected in the Kandy team for the much-important Qualifier 1. The team played excellent cricket against Jaffna Kings and picked an impressive win by 61 runs. Fakhar Zaman’s availability is not certain though as he is part of the Pakistan training camp for the Afghanistan series. But since the camp will be in Sri Lanka, he may be available to play.
BLK Key Players
- Dinesh Chandimal - Chandimal scored 50 against Dambulla Aura. He then backed it up with another 41-run knock against Jaffna Kings. Chandimal look set for a big score anytime soon.
- Wanindu Hasaranga - Hasaranga has been magnificent in the tournament both with bat and ball. He has scored 231 runs in the tournament and has also taken 17 wickets. He is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament and bagged a six-wicket haul against Jaffna.
- Angelo Matthews – Angelo Matthews also provides the team with a good all-round option. He has made some decent contributions with the bat and ball for the team.
BLK Team Form
B-Love Kandy has been in good form, winning five out of the last seven games.
B-Love Kandy Predicted Playing 11
Mohammad Haris, Fakhar Zaman/C De Silva, Dinesh Chandimal (wk), Angelo Mathews, Sahan Arachchige, Asif Ali, Wanindu Hasaranga (c), Kamindu Mendis, Isuru Udana, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Nuwan Pradeep
