CS vs DA Probable Winners:

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. Considering the team combination, Dambulla Aura are expected to win this match.
