Preview

Colombo Strikers (CS) will take on B Love Kandy in the third match of the Lanka Premier League. This match will be played at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium. The defending champions Kandy Falcons (KFL) showed their class with a commanding win over Dambulla in the opening match by six wickets. They chased down a target of 183 with a couple of overs spare. On the other hand, Colombo will be in action for the first time this season. This should be a closely fought game.

Player Picks

8
C

Dasun Shanaka KR | ALL

Shanaka played a breezy cameo to score 46 off just 15 balls and also picked up three wickets in the opening match against Dambulla.

8.5
C

Rahmanullah Gurbaz CK | WICKETKEEPER

Rahmanullah Gurbaz was the leading run getter in the recently concluded T20 WC 2024. He will be a good captaincy pick.

7

Dinesh Chandimal KR | WK

Dinesh Chandimal will open the batting and scored 60 runs in the previous match. He will also give points with wicket-keeping.

8.5

Matheesha Pathirana CK | BOWL

Matheesha Pathirana will spearhead the bowling attack for his side and will be a top pick against this opposition.

8.5

Angelo Mathews KR | ALL

Angelo Mathews scored an unbeaten 37 of 20 balls in the opening match. He will be a handy budget pick for this match.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8.5

Chamath Gomez

KR | BAT

Chamath Gomez went wicket less in the previous match and with plenty of better options he can be left out.

8.5

Nipun Dananjaya

CK | BAT

He does not have a good record in this format and might struggle to make it to the side. Hence avoid him for this match.
