Kandy Warriors vs Colombo Stars T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, LPL 2021
Kandy Warriors and Colombo Stars will fight it out to keep their qualification hopes alive in the tournament. The teams will cross swords in match 15 at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo at 3:00 PM IST.
Kandy Warriors have been very disappointing in the season so far, winning one and losing four games. This game is very important for them as a loss will almost end their campaign in LPL 2021. The batters have been the main culprits. There have been a few good knocks here and there by Charith Asalanka, Tom Moores but as a team, they have failed to deliver collective performances. The bowlers have also leaked too many runs.
Colombo Stars too have been very disappointing, winning just two of five games. However, they defeated Galle Gladiators in the last game and will be hoping to ride on the momentum and fetch a few more wins. Angelo Matthews returned to the team in the last game and made an immediate impact with a 73 run knock. Later, Dinesh Chandimal also played a quickfire knock of 36 to push Colombo to 162 in 18 overs. The bowlers then bundled out Galle for 121. The bowling has been impressive from Stars throughout the tournament and if batters can play their role, the team can pose a stiff challenge.

KW vs CS Match Toss Prediction
Chasing teams have struggled in the tournament due to the slow nature of the surface. Given that the surface will keep on getting slower as the tournament progresses, a lot of teams will not be keen to bat second. The skipper who wins the toss will most likely bat first.
KW vs CS Pitch Report
The surface has played out better than we expected. But it has started to look exhausted. The slow wicket will aid the spinners and batting won't be very easy when the ball gets soft.
Weather Report
The last few games of the tournament have been marred by rain and it seems that the coming games will also be affected by it. A few showers are expected during the game time.

Kandy Falcons Team News & Playing 11
KW Team News
Kandy Warriors dropped Al Amin in the last game and brought back Ahmed Shahzad. We think it was the right move as Al Amin wasn't making an impact. Also, a quality batter like Shehzad can help them set a solid platform at the top. Warriors most likely will go in the same combination.
KW Key Players
- Ahmed Shehzad - Shehzad so far has played just two games for the Warriors. In his first game, he scored a half-century. He is an experienced campaigner and the onus will be on him to get Kandy off to a good start.
- Kamindu Mendis - While there has been no massive match-winning performance from Mendis, he has quietly done the job the team needs from him. He has given the team vital breakthroughs and also chipped in with crucial runs when needed.
- Shiraz Ahmed - The pacer has been a real find in the tournament. He has been very economical and has not given much away. He has not taken a lot of wickets but that too shall come his way soon given the way he is bowling.
KW Team Form
Warriors have endured a poor outing as they have lost four of their 5 games in LPL 2021.
Kandy Falcons Predicted Playing 11
Charith Asalanka, Ahmed Shehzad, Angelo Perera (c), Kamindu Mendis, Ravi Bopara, Tom Moores (wk), Minod Bhanuka, Nimesh Vimukthi, Sachindu Colombage, Shiraz Ahmed, Binura Fernando

CS Team News
Kusal Perera wasn't part of the XI in the last game. We are not sure if was injured or being rested but if he is fit, he should be back in the team.
CS Key Players
- Angelo Matthews - The captain returned to the side in the last game and made an immediate impact with a 73 run knock. Matthews is someone who can bind the batting lineup and play the anchor role, which will give other players the licence to play aggressive cricket. He is vital to the team's chances.
- Dinesh Chandimal - Chandimal too showed his class in the last game and scored 36 off 14 balls to lend the finishing touch to the innings. He is been consistent in the last few games and will be keen to continue his form.
- Seekkuge Prasanna - He has played a vital role for the team in the bowling department. Prasanna is third on the list of most wickets this season and has taken 9 wickets in 5 games.
CS Team Form
Despite having a good team, Colombo have failed to impress, losing three of their five games.
Colombo Stars Predicted Playing 11
Pathum Nissanka, Tom Banton, Ashan Priyanjan, Angelo Mathews (c), Dhananjaya de Silva, Dinesh Chandimal (wk), Ravindu Fernando, Seekkuge Prasanna, Dushmantha Chameera, Naveen-ul-Haq, Ravi Rampaul

🏆 Kandy Falcons vs Colombo Stars Prediction
Kandy Warriors have been poor in the tournament. Neither their batting nor bowling has clicked so far. Colombo, on the other hand, defeated Galle in the last game and seem to have found some form. They are the favourites to win.
