Preview:

Galle Gladiators will be taking on the Colombo Kings in the 4th match of the Lanka Premier League. Galle Gladiators suffered a defeat in the first match of their campaign. Danushka Gunathilaka gave the Gladiators a good start, but it was followed by a minor collapse in the middle overs. Later on, their bowling proved to be the major reason behind their defeat as they failed to take regular wickets. They need to execute their plans next time on the field.

On the other side, Colombo Kings are coming off a thrilling victory over the Kandy Tuskers, where the game went into the super over. The Tuskers bowled well but some misses in their fielding proved to be the major difference. Their openers gave the side a brilliant start in the powerplay. Udana came to the rescue later on and tied the score. Though their batting has been on the money, they will need to improve a lot with the ball.
