Lanka Premier League 2023: Match 20, Colombo Strikers vs Galle Titans: Probable XIs, Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming

Colombo Strikers and Galle Titans will lock horns in Match No. 20 of the Lanka Premier League 2023 on Tuesday, August 15. The R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo will play host to this match.

The Strikers, led by Chamika Karunaratne, are placed at the bottom of the table with six points and a net run rate of -0.672 thanks to wins in three out of seven matches. But they are still in contention to qualify for the playoffs.

If they win their last league match, they will topple Galle Titans to the fourth spot. They will go into the match after beating Wanindu Hasaranga’s B-Love Kandy by nine runs on August 13.

The Titans, led by Dasun Shanaka, still have a chance to make their way through to the playoffs. After losing four matches in a row, the Titans looked completely out of sorts in the T20 tournament.

But they somehow managed to cling on to their hopes after beating Thisara Perera’s Jaffna Kings by seven wickets. They need a win in their last league match to advance to the next round.
