Courtesy of their phenomenal win over three-time champions Jaffna Kings in the Eliminator, B-Love Kandy (BLK) have moved one step closer to the coveted prize and will next challenge Galle Titans (GT) on their road to the final. Mohammad Haris and Dinesh Chandimal were phenomenal with the bat while with the ball, Wanindu Hasaranga wreaked havoc, as the spinner picked up six wickets in the middle. Thus, overall, they will be in a much better place going to Qualifier 2.

Galle Titans meanwhile had a good season but lost to B-Love Kandy earlier in the tournament. Even in the Qualifier 1, they lost to Dambulla Aura and thus, they don’t have the much-needed momentum that’s needed. Nevertheless, Lasith Croospulle was phenomenal in the last match, hitting 80 runs off 61 deliveries and he will once again be key for the side in the second qualifier. Middle-order batters however need to improve immediately.
