Dhananjaya de Silva is a beast when it comes to playing at home conditions. He has an incredible record in the LPL and will be looking to carry that forward.
Maheesh Theekshana has had exponential growth in professional cricket. In the last year or so, he has become a mainstay in the Sri Lankan national team and has even secured an IPL contract with CSK. Bet on him to take most wickets in this match.
