THE LOWDOWN
COLOMBO STRIKERS
Colombo Strikers’ return to their home ground on Saturday was anything but welcoming, as they fell to a devastating defeat courtesy of Dambulla Aura, who crushed the Strikers by 50 runs. Set a target of 167 to win, Colombo were devastated by early wickets, losing three in the powerplay and eventually being reduced to 74/5. As the rate climbed, the hosts were forced to hit out and the outcome was inevitable, Colombo falling considerably short getting bowled out for just 116.
B-LOVE KANDY
B-Love Kandy coming out the right end of a hard-fought battle vs Lanka Premier League champions Jaffna Kings will have served as a huge boost to a side who are now on a four-match winning streak. Such a brilliant run has parachuted them to the top of the table on eight points and they’ll no doubt have their eye on a place in the first qualifier at this stage. Kandy’s latest triumph saw them defend 178/8, Angelo Matthews rolling back the years with the ball, taking three wickets for the loss of just ten runs across his three overs bowled.
THE PREDICTION
It’s hard to stop a side riding the crest of a wave quite like B-Love Kandy are at present. Their batters are clicking brilliantly as a collective unit and it’s hard to see Colombo Strikers being able to stem the flow of runs. Factor in their meek recent batting showings which have seen them record losing scores of 146/8 (batting first) and 116 all out across their last two Lanka Premier League encounters and it doesn’t bode well for them. Back B-Love Kandy to continue their fine form by chalking up another two points vs the hosts.
BETTING TIP: B-LOVE KANDY TO WIN
