Dambulla Aura (DA) and Jaffna Kings (JK) will lock horns in Match No. 4 of the LPL (Lanka Premier League) 2023 on Tuesday, August 1. The R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo will host the clash.

Hardus Viljoen is someone who can pick up wickets both in the middle and the death overs. The speedster picked up three wickets against the Strikers and gave away 31 runs in his quota of four overs. The pacer got the scalps of Pathum Nissanka, Mohammad Nawaz, and Ramesh Mendis — all of whom are capable of playing big shots in the hour of need.
