Pitch Report
The pitch at the R Premadasa Stadium is a balanced one assisting both batters and bowlers. The new ball comes nicely onto the bat, so batters can play their strokes freely early on. The pitch tends to get slower as the game progresses and the track here also assists slow bowlers as we have seen in a few last games played here.

CS vs JK, Who will win the match, Today Match Prediction
Jaffna Kings are expected to win this match against Colombo Stars.
Both teams are coming off wins in their previous games and will be looking to count on their winning momentum in this fixture. Both sides look strong on paper but the Jaffna Kings have an added advantage of a stronger and more lethal bowling unit as compared to Colombo Stars. In the past encounter, Kings emerged on top of Stars with their bowlers exposing the middle-order of the latter. Maheesh Theekshana, Wahab Riaz, and Wanindu Hasaranga will be a key threat for Kings batters. Overall it is expected to be an exciting clash between the two sides.

Top All-Rounder for Colombo Stars- Seekkuge Prasanna
All-Rounder, Prasanna became the anchor for the last victory of Stars against Warriors with quickfire 32 runs in just 6 Balls smashing five sixes with a strike rate of 533.33. He also took the scalp of Ravi Bopara by his leg-break bowling and became the player of the match. His pinch-hitting abilities can prove to be a key factor in this game as well.
Top Batman for Jaffna Kings- Thisara Perera
Perara is a prime player for the Jaffna Kings and has contributed in every way to take them to the top. He proved vital in the previous encounter against Stars scoring unbeaten 57 Runs off 23 balls with a strike rate of 247.82.
Top Bowler for Colombo Stars- Dushmantha Chameera
Chameera Was exceptional in the last game against Kandy Warriors picking four scalps and taking three major top-order batters. He is capable of consistently hitting speeds of over 140 kph. he has garnered 38 scalps in 39 T20Is matches he has played with an average of 28.28.
Top Bowler for Jaffna Kings- Chaturanga de Silva
De Silva completely bamboozled the Dambulla Giants limiting them to a record lowest total of 62 Runs. He was awarded the player of the match picking four scalps conceding just 16 Runs with an impressive economy of 4.00. He is a promising allrounder who delivers left-arm spin at a sharp pace and plays brisk innings from the lower order.
1st Wicket Method – “Out by Bowled” – (5.50)
With the inclusion of high-end pacers like Chameera and Chaturanga de Silva who bowl at 130+ km/hr speeds, we can’t rule out the possibility of the first wicket being lost by being bowled out irrespective of the winner of the toss. De Silva bowled out opener Phil Salt in the first innings of the Giants while we witnessed three such events from Chameera in the past matches.
