Pre-Match Analysis:

Jaffna Kings will miss their key overseas players Chris Lynn, Shoaib Malik, and Zaman Khan for the first few matches as they are currently featuring in Global Canada T20 League. David Miller who ended his stint with Texas Super Kings is likely to miss the opening game. All-rounder Thisara Perera will lead the side in this edition. Kings boost exciting domestic cricketers in their ranks with the likes of Charith Asalanka, Asitha Fernando, Maheesh Theekshana, and Dunith Wellalage. They put up a clinical all-round show last year where they emerged champions for the 3rd consecutive time and it requires a better version of them to defend their title this time.

Colombo Strikers has completely transitioned compared to the last year and will have a new captain in the form of modern-day legend Babar Azam. They have strong Pakistan core players in their mix with the likes of Naseem Shah, Mohammad Nawaz, Wahab Riaz, and skipper himself, Babar Azam. Iftikhar Ahmed might arrive late due to his commitments in the Global Canada T20 League. They have a diversified bowling attack which makes them tough to tackle. They have shown improvements in every season and it’s time for them to lift the title.
