Dambulla Aura vs Jaffna Kings Preview

Last year, Jaffna Kings triumphed against Galle Gladiators to capture the prized title.
In the previous season of the Lankan Premier League, Jaffna Kings had notable players in Avishka Fernando and Mahesh Theekshana.
In the Qualifier 2 game played in Hambantota the previous year, Jaffna Kings defeated Dambulla Aura.

At the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium, the Dambulla Aura and the Jaffna Kings will square off. On Wednesday, December 7, the third game of the 2022 Lanka Premier League begins at 15:00 local time.

The Dambulla Aura’ 2021 season wasn’t very noteworthy, even though they were third overall and fourth in the group stage. They trailed the top two teams by a significant margin, and they will be hoping that their new-look team this year can run a more effective campaign.

On Tuesday’s first game of the 2022 LPL, Jaffna Kings got off to a victorious start. Before limiting the Galle Gladiators to 113 all out, they scored 137 from 19.5 overs. In this encounter, the Kings will be attempting to make it two victories in a row.

Jaffna Kings is the favourite to win this match.

Given that some of their star players did not perform well, Jaffna Kings will have gained a lot of confidence from their victory over the Galle Gladiators in the opening game. The Dambulla Aura will be eager to start the game-winning, but we are unsure about the strength of their bowling attack. We anticipate a victory for Jaffna Kings.
