Probable Top Performers

Probable best batter of the match:

Tilakaratne Dilshan:

Tilakaratne Dilshan was the Player of the Series last season and he almost won the tournament for his side single handedly. Apart from opening the batting, Dilshan is quite handy with the ball and he can add a lot to the Sri Lankan legends side in terms of quality. 

Probable best bowler of the match:

Nuwan Kulasekara:

Nuwam Kulasekara played a lot of games in the previous edition of the tournament and he still looked one of the fittest going around. The seamer has got exceptional skills with the new ball and can surprise the batters sometimes with the bounce he extracts.
