LPL 2022: Match 14, CS vs DA Match Prediction – Who will win today’s LPL match between Colombo Stars and Dambulla Aura?

The 14th match of the Lanka Premier League will see Colombo Stars (CS) taking on Dambulla Aura (DG) at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on December 14. With zero wins so far in the tournament, the Dasun Shanaka-led Dambulla Aura are currently under a lot of pressure and so are the Stars, who managed to win only one of their first four matches.

After a poor start to the season, both teams will be desperate to bag a victory and stay alive in the race. When these two sides met earlier in the season, Colombo Stars emerged victorious after a very close encounter and something similar will be expected this time around as well.
