Dambulla Aura (DA) will cross swords with Galle Titans (GT) in the fourteenth match of Lanka Premier League (LPL) 2023 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Friday (August 11). DA emerged victorious in their previous encounter against Jaffna Kings (JK), while GT suffered a setback at the hands of B-Love Kandy.
Kusal Perera shined with the bat for DA in their match against JK. Kusal scored resilient 41 runs off 36 deliveries and helped their team reach a competitive total. Hasan Ali stood out among bowlers for DA and bagged three wickets to guide the team to victory. On the other hand, despite Lahiru Samarakoon‘s two wickets and fighting 36-run knock, the Galle-based team couldn’t edge past BLK.
DA currently sits at the second spot of the LPL 2023 points table and will look to grab the first position. Meanwhile, GT are on fifth place and will be determined to bounce back in the tournament.
