THE LOWDOWN

DAMBULLA AURA

Dambulla Aura head into the play-offs as group winners and by a significant margin as well, finishing on 12 points with six wins from eight matches. All the momentum is with them having won their last five games on the bounce and they’ll want to take that with them into this game. The consistency of their batting has been a big factor in their success and it’s important that Dambulla maintain that, not to mention the bowling which has successfully bowled out their last two opponents.

GALLE TITANS

Galle Titans weren’t expected to finish inside the top two going into the final day of group games, but they did so in dramatic fashion. Bowling first, they dismissed Colombo Strikers for a meagre 74 before chasing the target down in just 8.3 overs. Such a massive victory gave a massive boost to their net-run-rate which proved enough for them to sneak into second-placed ahead of B-Love Kandy due to that superior net-run-rate.

THE PREDICTION

Although Galle Titans deserve huge credit to get into the top two, that victory over Colombo potentially masks their true standing as a team. It doesn’t feel like they are a better side than B-Love Kandy based on the group stage and Dambulla Aura will be confident of advancing here. When considering the brilliant form that they’ve been in and their unrelenting consistency, Dambulla have to be favoured to move on to the final.
