Sri Lanka T20 League, 2022
Match 14: CS vs DA
Preview
CS will cross swords with DA in the 14th match of the ongoing Sri Lanka T20 League. The match is scheduled at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday, December 14, 2022. Both sides haven’t really delivered in the whole tournament so far. Colombo have won only one match out of their four and are placed in the second spot from the bottom end. Dambulla are sitting right at the bottom with zero wins in three matches played. They need to improve their performance and win their next matches to keep their hopes alive for the qualifiers.
CS won their first and only match of the season so far against DA by 9 runs. In that face-off, opener Niroshan Dickwella smashed 61 runs off 41 balls to guide Colombo to a total of 165 runs. Lahiru Kumara from the other end took a four-fer which somewhat help to stop the flow of runs. In the second half of the game, Dambulla’s top five batters had a good approach towards the game but their lower-order batters failed. This led to the third consecutive defeat for the DA side.

Pitch and Weather Report
The Pallekele International Cricket Stadium assist the spinners which could turn out to be helpful while restricting the rival side from getting to a big score. However, the pitch allows batters to hit good scores in the middle of the match. The par score of this pitch is 150 runs and it will surely be a competitive total for both sides to compete.
The weather forecast for this encounter is good with almost no chances of rain. Clouds will cover the area but a full match is expected without any interference.
