KF vs CS T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, LPL 2022

Kandy Falcons will take on Colombo Stars at the R.Premadasa Stadium, Colombo. Match 16 of the 2022 Lanka Premier League gets underway at 19:30 local time on Saturday 17th December.

Kandy Falcons

With five victories from their opening six matches in the tournament, Kandy Falcons are top of the table ahead of this group of games in Colombo. The Falcons won their last game against their nearest challengers, Jaffna Kings, by 10 runs.

KF Batting

Batting displays for Kandy Falcons have been built upon the strong returns from openers Pathum Nissanka and Andre Fletcher. Nissanka is the fourth highest run scorer in the tournament with Fletcher at the top with 220 runs so far. We expect Fletcher to enjoy the additional pace in this wicket.

KF Bowling

Apart from Carlos Brathwaite, no other player has taken more than nine wickets across the tournament so far. The pace bowling West Indian took 4-18 in the win over Jaffna Kings and has taken his tally up to 15 dismissals for this competition. He may well be even better on this pitch.

KF Form

Kandy Falcons have lost only one game in the tournament and beat Colombo Stars by 109 runs in Match 2.

Colombo Stars

The Stars have turned their season round from a slow start where they won only one of their four games and are now in third place, only two points from second and four points from the top spot. They had a convincing nine wicket win over Dambulla Aura in their last match.

CS Batting

The experienced batters in the top order of Colombo Stars’ side have produced the goods on occasions but in order to climb the table into the top two positions they need to show more consistency. We expect the likes of Niroshan Dickwella, Dinesh Chandimal and Angelo Mathews to use their knowledge of the ground to post a big score.

CS Bowling

The Colombo Stars bowlers produced one of the best bowling displays of the tournament when they bowled out Dambulla Aura for 89 from 13.5 overs on Wednesday in Kandy. Kasun Rajitha became the first player to take a 5-wicket haul in this year’s competition and his confidence will be very high ahead of this game.

CS Form

Colombo Stars are targeting their third straight win in the competition in this match.
