Lanka Premier League 2022, Match 5, Dambulla Aura vs Colombo Stars: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details

The Dambulla Aura and the Colombo Stars are set to lock horns on Thursday, December 8, in Match 5 of Lanka Premier League (LPL) 2022. The Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium in Hambantota will host this contest.

The Stars, led by Angelo Mathews, are languishing at the bottom of the points table with a disastrous net run rate of -5.450. They will go into the match after a 109-run defeat at the hands of Wanindu Hasaranga's Kandy Falcons.

After being asked to chase down 200, the Stars were bowled out for 90. Colombo's batters simply couldn't deal with Hasaranga's guile as he picked up a four-wicket haul, including the first ever hat-trick in Lanka Premier League history.

Meanwhile, the Aura, captained by Dasun Shanaka, had a tough time in their opening match as well. They were handed a nine-wicket defeat at the hands of defending champions, the Jaffna Kings.

Jordan Cox's 22-ball 43 took them to 121 for the loss of nine wickets. Thereafter, their bowlers failed to make any sort of an impact as the Kings chased the target down in 15.4 overs.

Jaffna Kings with yet another victory.

Both teams started their Lanka Premier League 2022 campaign with big losses and will be a tad low on confidence. The Aura's batting seems to be in a slightly better shape compared to their opponents and that could help them win this contest.

Prediction: Dambulla Aura to win the match.
