KAN vs DAM Dream11 Prediction: The 8th game of the Sri Lankan National Super League One Day 2022 is scheduled to be contested between Kandy and Dambulla on 30 January, 2022 at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo. Both these sides are coming into this match very much low on confidence after not doing well in their respective previous games. Dambulla suffered a poor 3-wicket loss at the hands of Galle in their most recent match and they have now lost as many as three games in a row, languishing at the bottom of the points table. On the other hand, Kandy side ended up losing their previous game against Colombo after registering a brilliant 6-wicket victory over Jaffna in their first game of the domestic season. It will now be really important for both these teams to perform with the best of their abilities in the opening stages of the tournament.
