There’s no stopping the Jaffna Kings at the moment, who on Sunday, registered their 4th win of the tournament to solidify their position at the top of the table. The Giants had to survive a major scare in their previous fixture, which was on Saturday against Colombo Stars, where Dinesh Chandimal nearly saw the latter through, but the Giants prevailed by 1 run.
A victory here takes Dambulla above Jaffna in the points table, which is an added incentive, but the Kings have been playing far more dominant cricket and it will take some doing to eclipse them.
Niroshan Dickwella (wk), Philip Salt, Sohaib Maqsood, Tharindu Ratnayake, Najibullah Zadran, Dasun Shanaka (c), Ramesh Mendis, Chamika Karunaratne, Sachitha Jayathilake, Nuwan Pradeep, Imran Tahir

The track has shown signs of getting tired in recent games, with the spinners coming into action more often than before. It is perhaps a great time for the young leg-spinners on both sides to unleash themselves.
Although the Giants have some spectacular batting talents, the real prized possession for fantasy managers will be Wanindu Hasaranga. It would be wise for the fantasy players to keep a balance between both units in your team.
Philip Salt: Only Dinesh Chandimal has more runs than Philip Salt right now, and he only is ahead of the English cricketer by 1 run. Salt’s 180-run tally came at an average of 36, and a strike rate of 174.76. He is a great addition as captain in small leagues for the side.
Thisara Perera: The Sri Lankan all-rounder has been in terrific form with the bat, scoring 150 runs at a strike rate in excess of 200. He can be a great gamble for captaincy in mega leagues, considering his ability to contribute with bat and ball.
Wanindu Hasaranga: His brilliance in the shortest format has been a spectacle to watch, and despite going wicket-less last game, he has 7 scalps to his credit in 5 games. He is a top choice for vice-captaincy.
Suranga Lakmal: The experienced seamer has been a major threat with his mixups, and at 8.5 credits, he is a worthy addition to your fantasy team.
Jayden Seales: He will not be a budget pick for long, as Jayden Seales is continuing to impress everyone by picking wickets at regular intervals. He costs just 8.5 credits, which is astonishing as he has 7 wickets in 3 games as it stands.
Shoaib Malik: The veteran Pakistani is chipping in with vital cameos, and has 100 runs to his credit despite not facing a lot of deliveries. He is striking the ball at 188.68 per hundred, making him worthy of 8.5 credits for your side.
