THE LOWDOWN
COLOMBO STRIKERS
Colombo Strikers ended up on the wrong end of a high-scoring encounter against Dambulla Aura this past Saturday, failing to match their opponents’ 192/6, eventually falling ten runs short. All the Colombo batters contributed in an attempt to chase down what was a formidable total, no player being dismissed for single figures. But whilst Nuwanidu Fernando got them close with 56 not out alongside Chamika Karunaratne, who struck 20 from just seven balls, they left themselves too much to do in the first innings.
GALLE TITANS
Galle Titans fell to a comprehensive defeat in their most recent Lanka Premier League fixture, losing by eight wickets to reigning champions Jaffna Kings. A poor showing with the bat from Galle ultimately cost them with a score of 117/9 never going to be enough against the reigning champions. As expected, such a modest total was chased down in quick time, just 12.4 overs to be precise. This will have been a significant blow to Galle’s next run-rate, which could cost them later on in the tournament.
THE PREDICTION
Despite being on the losing side against Dambulla, if Colombo Strikers can replicate their showing with the bat in that contest here vs Galle Titans then they stand an excellent chance of success. Yes, Galle are a dangerous team and have proved that over the course of the tournament, their thrashing of B-Love Kandy an example of what they can do. But Colombo’s first defeat of the competition saw them bounce back with victory the game after and they are worth backing to do the same again here.
BETTING TIP: COLOMBO STRIKERS TO WIN
