Kandy Warriors
B-Love Kandy won the 2023 Lanka Premier League tournament. They have opted for a squad which is littered with experience. They will want their experienced players to make a statement in this fixture.
Former Sri Lanka white-ball captain Dasun Shanaka will show his all-round qualities come gameday. In game one he was exceptional with ball and bat. He scored 46 off 15 balls not out as well as taking three for 20 with ball in hand.
Another former Sri Lanka captain in Dinesh Chandimal will be a leader atop the batting order. He is no stranger to silverware after winning the T20 World Cup in 2014 and Asia Cups in 2014 and 2022 with Sri Lanka.
Kamindu Mendis is not only an all-rounder in the sense that he is a capable bowler, batter and fielder. He also has the unique ability to bowl with both hands. His ambidexterity gives him the advantage of always being able to match-up well against left-hand and right-hand batters alike.
