CK vs DV Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing-11 Updates for Today's Lanka Premier League Match - Dec 1st, 2020
Match 7 of the Lanka Premier League has the Colombo Kings taking on the Dambulla Viiking at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium in Hambantota on Tuesday.
The Colombo Kings have been absolutely brilliant this season and have produced two outstanding performances with the bat. Against the Kandy Tuskers in the season opener, they had Isuru Udana and Dinesh Chandimal to thank as they won a close encounter in a Super Over.
The Kings' second game was a rain-curtailed encounter, but Andre Russell's pyrotechnics ensured that there wasn't any dearth in action or entertainment. They top the table at the time of writing, although they are in for a tough test against the Dambulla Viiking on Tuesday.
The Viiking, who have a power-packed batting unit, have also shown what they are capable of. With sufficient depth in both the departments and Dasun Shanaka starring with the bat, the Viiking look set for a playoff place even though it's still early stages in the Lanka Premier League. They will fancy their chances against the likes of Russell and co, who might be slight favourites heading into this game.
Either way, another cracking game of cricket beckons at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium with both teams looking to sustain their bid for a top-two finish.

Pitch Report
Another high-scoring game beckons at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium with not much help on offer for the bowlers. While there is marginal swing and bounce available for the pacers, the dimensions of the ground play into the batsmen's hands.
The batsmen should be able to get going from ball one, with the ball coming on to the bat nicely. 170-180 should be a decent score at this venue, with both teams looking to bat first upon winning the toss.
