KW vs DG LPL 2021 Match Preview:
Kandy Warriors will lock horns with Dambulla Giants in the 18th match of the Lanka Premier League 2021, at R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, on Thursday.
Kandy Warriors are struggling in the competition, having won only a single game so far out of six and are reeling at the bottom of the table. They lost to the Colombo Stars in their last game, which was a close-fought contest.
After being asked to bat first, the Warriors’ batters failed to adapt to the conditions and could only manage a total of 146 in their 20 overs, losing nine wickets. The bowlers then tried hard and picked up five wickets but failed to hold their nerves in the end as the Stars chased down the total with two balls to spare.
The Dambulla Giants, meanwhile, are placed in third position in the points table. They have won three games and lost as many, with one game being washed out due to rain. They suffered a loss against the Galle Gladiators in their last game.
After the match was reduced to 14 overs per side due to rain, the Gladiators posted 134 on the board after being asked to bat first. The Giants lost five wickets and couldn’t chase down the total as they were restricted to 125, falling short by nine runs.
