Kandy Tuskers vs Galle Gladiators, LPL 2020
Kandy Tuskers will take on Galle Gladiators in the sixth 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.
Both Kandy Tuskers and Galle Gladiators have lost both their previous matches and would be eyeing a win in this crucial encounter. KandyKandy Tuskers could have easily win both their matches but lost their grip on the matches in crucial situations.
They still look a pretty strong unit with Rahman Ullah Gurbaz going all guns blazing at the top. Kushal Perera already have a big knock under his belt. Kusal Mendis, Asela Gunaratne and Kamindu Mendis are no mug with the bat either.
The problem for Kandy Tuskers however will be their bowling that doesn't look very promising. Naveen ul Haq, Asela Gunaratne, Dilruwan Perera and Nuwan Pradeep have been disappointing in the two matches.
Galle Gladiators were put to sword by the destructive Andre Russell where he powered Colombo Kings to a mammoth 96 in just 5 overs.
Hazratullah Zazai, Danushka Gunathilaka, Bhanuka Rajapaksa are capable batsmen but their consistency will always be in question. The lack of big hitting finishers is also something that's missing for this Galle Gladiators team.
On paper, their bowling looks as good as anyone with Mohammad Amir, Milinda Siriwardena, and Shahid Afridi but still there is a lot of scope for improvement. Overall, Galle Gladiators squad definitely has some quality in their team but their performance hasn't been up to the mark.

Kandy Tuskers have a decent batting but their bowling looks slim. It's high time that Kandy Tuskers bring in Dale Steyn.
KDT Key Players

GGD Team News
Galle Gladiators too are struggling with their bowling. They Might swap some of their bowlers with the ones warming the bench.
GGD Key Players
- Shahid Afridi– Shahid Afridi is a fearsome batsmen who can single handedly win the game for his team. He played a good knock in the first match and didn't had much of a chance in the second game. Skipper, batsmen, bowler, Afridi is the heart of this team. He can be backed for a big show in the next match of LPL 2020.
- Danushka Gunathilaka – Danushka Gunathilaka has two 30's in the tournament. He has got enough time at the crease and Galle can now expect a big inning from him.
- Hazratulla Zazai - Zazai is a brutal batsmen in this format. There was not much he could have done in the previous game but he's a valuable addition to this Galle Gladiators team.
