B-Love Kandy vs Dambulla Aura Team Preview
B-Love Kandy
In their opening two games of the competition, Kandy was thoroughly outplayed. In the first game, they were defeated by Colombo Strikers by 27 runs, while in the second game, they were defeated by Galle Titans by 83 runs. The team’s inability to post significant scores was due to the hitters. Senior players like Angelo Matthews, Kamindu Mendis, and Dinesh Chandimal must soon regain their form.
B Kandy must find her form soon. The team is likely to back the players and use the same lineup. If they want to make a change, they might bring in Dushmantha Chameera instead of Thanuka Dabare.
Dambulla Aura
On the other hand, Dambulla Aura has produced solid cricket. They lost to Galle Titans in the Super over, which was sad for them, but they bounced back to defeat Jaffna Kings by 8 wickets. It’s encouraging that the majority of the team’s batsmen, including Kusal Perera, Avishka Fernando, and Dhananjaya de Silva, have contributed runs to the cause.
Dambulla Aura has made a strong start to the tournament and will not be anxious about making changes to their starting lineup. Dambulla will almost certainly start with the same lineup.
