DHG vs KDW Match Prediction - Dec 13, 2022

Dambulla Aura is the only team that has not yet been able to get a single win to its name. It has played and lost three matches while Kandy Falcons has won three out of the four matches it has played. This makes this contest seem a bit one-sided on paper but in reality, the teams are probably closer than you might expect. 

 

DHG vs KDW Team Previews

Dambulla Giants

Dambulla Aura is going through a wretched run and we think they will have to make a few changes. It is not as if the players that they have picked are bad (far from it) but they are not performing right now. Jordan Cox, Tom Abell, and Bhanuka Rajapaksa are excellent players to have in your top order. So far, though, we have not seen any of them play an inning of impact. 

With Dasun Shanaka hitting some form in the previous match, there is a chance that he could come up the order himself. Sikandar Raza has been a complete washout in the Lanka Premier League 2022 edition and could be benched for this match. 

Lahiru Kumara stands out as the most prolific wicket-taker for Dambulla Aura but he is also the most expensive bowler. Sitting at the bottom of the standings without a win to its name, there is no doubt that the Dambulla Giants are the underdogs in this contest against the Kandy Falcons. 

Dambulla Giants Playing 11

Shevon Daniel, Jordan Cox, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Lasith Croospulle, Dasun Shanaka, Sikandar Raza, Ramesh Mendis, Chathuranga Silva, Pramod Madushan, Noor Ahmad, Paul Van Meekeren.


Kandy Warriors

A rare batting failure from the Kandy Falcons brought them their first defeat in the Lanka Premier League. Pathum Nissanks got another start but Andre Fletcher, Kamindu Mendis, Wanindu Hasaranga, and Carlos Brathwaite were unable to score runs. 

An off-game can happen even to the best of teams and we don't think the Kandy Falcons would be worried just yet. 

They have a very reliable top-order batter in Pathum Nissanks around which the rest of the batting can rally. With Chamika Karunaratne batting at number 8, there is plenty of depth to count on. 

One of the reasons for the Falcons' success in LPL 2022 has been its bowling. Wanindu Hasaranga, Isuru Udana, Carlos Brathwaite, and even Chamika Karunaratne have all done very well. The team has been able to score runs under pressure and defend par-totals with ease so far. 

We think the Kandy Falcons have the upper hand going into this contest for sure.

Pitch and Conditions

The weather forecast for match day seems to be quite good. There is no rain predicted and the pitch should also continue to be excellent for batting. We did see the surface slow down a bit but that is just natural. A par score is still somewhere around 160-170 for sure. 

DHG vs KDW Betting Tips

We are going to back the Kandy Falcons to win. We think they have a stronger batting lineup and that their bowling is in excellent form. Having Pathum NIssanka and Wanindu Hasaranga in the team gives the Kandy Falcons a world-class base to work with. 

Bet on the Kandy Falcons to win.
