NEK vs GM Pitch Report

Small boundaries, dew likely in the later stages and flat pitches mean only one thing. Batters are likely to have a lot of fun and batting second could be a better choice.

Saurabh Tiwary, Kyle Mayers, Bhanuka Rajapaksha, Benny Howell, Dushan Hemantha, Avishka Fernando, Oshane Thomas, Kasun Rajitha, Aftab Alam, Lahiru Madhushanka, Chamika Karunaratne

GM Playing XI

NEK vs GM Key Players

Kasun Rajitha

The bowling attack is getting pretty competitive for Sri Lanka. With another league on the block Rajitha has a chance to add his name on the list given he is already a fringe player and can put pressure on the regulars.

Prabath Jayasuriya

Prabath Jayasuriya recently proved that he can succeed in Tests overseas. He now has to prove he can do so in white-ball cricket. The challenge though would be to do so without losing his technique in red-ball cricket.

Match Prediction: NEK Will Win the Match

Sri Lanka kicks off another T10 league. Their national side has been pretty solid in recent months and this tournament could well be the way for them to kick start improvements to their death bowling and T20 batting, while unearthing some new names for the other formats.
