Preview
B-Love Kandy (BLK) will lock horns with Colombo Strikers (CS) in the 3rd match of the LPL 2023 at the R.Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on July 31. Colombo Strikers have already played a match in this tournament which they lost. On the other hand, B-Love Kandy are a newly formed team and will make their debut with this game.
Colombo Strikers had squared off against Jaffna Kings in their last encounter, where Colombo Strikers won the toss, and they elected to field. Kings started well and maintained a healthy run rate. Neither of their batters could stay on to score big runs, but they did provide a good base for the team. The middle order did the heavy lifting and scored the bulk of the runs. Towhid Hridoy led the attack with his fantastic fifty, and Kings posted a strong total of 173 runs on the board.
Matching their opponents, Strikers had a good start as well but then were pulled back as they lost two wickets in quick succession. Niroshan Dickwella stood tall from one end and scored a half-century. After some resistance from the middle order, he lost partners from the other end, so the team was bowled out for 152 and lost the match by 21 runs. Vijaykanth Viyaskanth was awarded Player of the Match for his great performance with the ball as well as on the field.

Player Picks
Niroshan Dickwella CS | WK
Dickwella played the captain's knock in the last game and looked in great touch. He smashed 58 runs off just 34 balls including nine boundaries and a huge six. He should be the captain of your fantasy team.
Wanindu Hasaranga KFL | ALL
Hasaranga is a fantastic player of the format not just with his bowling greatness but due to his capability of contributing with the bat as well. He can be another great choice for captaincy roles.
Babar Azam CS | BAT
Although Babar could not do much in the last game, he is a quality player of the format. He has played 261 matches in this format where he has amassed 9208 runs and is a must-have pick for your team.
Naseem Shah CS | BOWL
Naseem is a fantastic bowler who can pick up regular wickets. He took one wicket in the last game giving away 30 runs in his three overs and can be an important pick for this match.
Chamika Karunaratne CS | ALL
Karunaratne could be a handy pick for the team owing to his capabilities on both fronts. In the last match, he scalped one wicket while also scoring 23 runs and was unlucky to get run out.
Angelo Mathews KFL | ALL
Matthews is a brilliant player who can win you matches with the bat as well as the ball. He has mustered 3037 runs and 85 wickets playing in 185 matches. He could be a good budget pick for the team.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Angelo Perera
CS | BAT
Perera has not been in recent good form and should not find a place in your fantasy team.
Shashika Dulshan
CS | BOWL
Dulshan has not been able to perform much in the chances he has got. He should not be picked up in your team.
