CS vs DA: Team Previews
Colombo Strikers
Colombo Strikers went down to Jaffna Kings by 21 runs in the opening game of the LPL 2023 season. However, Niroshan Dickwella and co. bounced back against B-Love Kandy in their subsequent outing to register a 27-run win, opening their account on the points table in this process. The Colombo-based franchise reached the final last year, and will be aiming to go one step ahead this time around.
Dambulla Aura
Dambulla Aura secured a thrilling tie in their tournament opener against Galle Titans. Later in the same evening, they ended up conceding two points on offer with a defeat in the tie-breaking Super Over. Much like the Strikers, Aura overcame the early setback with a win in their next game, as they defeated Jaffna Kings by eight wickets and 22 balls to spare to get their campaign back on track.
