Hambantota Bangla Tigers
Kandy BoltsHambantota Bangla Tigers are yet to score a win in the league. They started the league with a loss against Jaffna Kings and their 2nd fixture against Galle Marvels was abandoned due to rain.
Skipper Dasun Shanka scored 51 off 17 balls and he will be expected to continue the momentum for the upcoming fixture. He smashed 4 fours and 5 sixes in the game to help the team reach a respectable score. However, the rest of the batting unit failed to contribute and hence the team failed to dominate the match.
On the bowling front, Tharindu Ratnayake and Isuru Udana were the only wicket-takers. Dushmantha Chameera and Richard Gleeson are the two other bowlers who will be expected to pick wickets in the upcoming game.
Tharindu Ratnayake, Isuru Udana, Kusal Perera, and Dasun Shanaka are the key players in the team.
Predicted Lineup: Shevon Daniel, Mohammad Shahzad, Kusal Perera (wk), Sahan Arachchige, Sabbir Rahman, Dasun Shanaka (c), Dhananjaya Lakshan, Isuru Udana, Richard Gleeson, Vijayakanth Viyaskanth, Tharindu Ratnayake
Kandy Bolts also received results similar to those of their opposition in the league. Dinesh Chandimal will be the team's key player in the batting unit. His performance against Galle Marvels was the headline of the game.
After the early exit of the top order, Chandimal handled the situation and scored 66 off 25 balls at a strike rate of 264. For the upcoming fixture, the team will expect a better performance from Pathum Nissanka, George Munsey, and Chandrapaul Hemraj from the top order.
When it comes to their bowling unit, Imad Wasim is their key player who scalped 2 wickets against Galle Marvels. Ronsford Beaton and Chaturanga de Silva were decent with their economy but failed to scalp a single wicket.
Pathum Nissanka, Dinesh Chandimal, and Imad Wasim are the key players in the team.
Predicted Lineup: Pathum Nissanka, Shehan Jayasuriya, George Munsey, Chandrapaul Hemraj, Milinda Siriwardana, Dinesh Chandimal (wk), Thisara Perera (c), Imad Wasim, Chaturanga de Silva, Danal Hemananda, Seekkuge Prasanna
Both Hambantota Bangla Tigers and Kandy Bolts donβt have the right combination of players in the squad. They have some star-studded lineup but still, the start of the league has been disappointing.
The Bangla Tigers have an advantage for the upcoming fixture because of their tight bowling. It will play a key role for the Tigers on Sunday and we predict a win for them.
