#image_title

After losing the opening game to Jaffna Kings, Colombo Strikers made a strong return, defeating B-Love Kandy in the second match. Next up, the Niroshan Dickwella-led side will take on Dambulla Aura, who looked a bit shaky with the bat in their third match of the season. Meanwhile, the strikers will be aiming to keep up with the momentum. Pakistan skipper Babar Azam and Sri Lanka international Matheesa Pathirana did a commendable job in the last match and thus, they will back themselves to get the job done once again.

Dambulla meanwhile has struggled with the bat in the initial stage. That is one area that the team needs to get better at. Opener Avishka Fernando in the last match tried to give a good start but despite getting the start, the 25-year-old failed to get going. However, Dhananjaya de Silva’s impressive performance helped the team finish well against B-Kandy Love. On the other hand, their bowlers have done a good job so far in the tournament and that remains one of their strengths.
