Kandy Falcons vs Jaffna Kings Betting Tips
Jaffna Kings to score high before 1st dismissal (1.85@Parimatch)
Jaffna Kings are doing fairly well in the competition. They have played four games and exhibited strong batting form in all the games. Kusal Mendis opened the innings alongside Avishka Fernando in the first game but Pathum Nissanka filled the opening position and replaced Fernando after their 1st match. The team posted the scores of 20, 30, 25 & 30 runs before their 1st dismissal. Nissanka and Mendis average at 44.50 & 14.50 respectively in the competition. That said, Jaffna Kings should score high before their 1st wicket in the next game.
Match Prediction Best Odds
Kandy Falcons vs Jaffna Kings Toss Prediction
Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium’s pitch stands somewhere in the middle of the batter and bowlers favour both parties. The Stadium is located in a tropical area which makes the pitch’s surface dry and favours the batters when the ball is new in the first innings. However, due to the high humidity in the morning, seamers get all the benefits from the pitch. As the match progresses further, and the ball gets beaten, finally spinners get their chance to showcase their skills on this pitch. It is a good idea to bat here first.
Weather Report
The weather will be partly cloudy with a high of 32 degrees Celsius in Dambulla on the match day.
