Kandy Tuskers vs Colombo Kings, LPL 2020
Kandy Tuskers will take on Colombo Kings in the 13th match of the Sri Lanka Premier League. The match will be played on the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium and is scheduled to begin at 8.00 PM local time.
From starting the tournament as one of the favourites for the title, Kandy Tuskers will struggle to even reach the playoffs. They had big players in their batting department but none of them played as per their reputation.
Kusal Perera and Kusal Mendis are their two best batsmen and have some runs behind them but Kandy needed big runs from them, considering their bleak bowling. It didn't happened and as a result they're struggling at the bottom of the points table.
Kandy Tuskers have lots of all rounders but lack a quality wicket taker. With this form and bowling lineup, we expect them to struggle in the upcoming matches as well.
Colombo Kings on the other hand have been outstanding, winning 3 off their 4 matches. Dinesh Chandimal and Andre Russell's form will be the biggest morale booster for them.
Others batsman like Laurie Evans has also been in decent touch. In Isuru Udana, Qais Ahmed, Dushmamta Chameera, they have a decent bowling. Angelo Matthews also bowled well in the last game. Overall, Colombo look to have all their bases covered and will go in this match as favourites.
