CS vs KW Dream11 Prediction, Lanka Premier League 2021, Match 20: Playing XI, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Team, Weather Updates and Pitch Report
Preview for CS vs KW Dream11 Contest
Things got incredibly interesting in the Lanka Premier League with the Kandy Warriors registering a surprise win against Dambulla Giants on Thursday. If the Warriors can get a big win in this fixture, they can pip the Stars and enter the top four. But on the other hand, the Stars themselves can go as high as the second position if they win this fixture by a big margin (and if Jaffna Kings defeat Gladiators). Both teams have plenty at stake, and there’s an open chance for one of them to be eliminated.

Kusal Perera (wk), Angelo Mathews (c), Ashan Priyanjan, Tom Banton, Dinesh Chandimal, Dhananjaya de Silva, Keemo Paul, Dushmantha Chameera, Jeffrey Vandersay, Naveen-ul-Haq, Ravi Rampaul

Pitch Report
Evening games in Colombo have not proven to be high-scoring affairs. Teams batting first can get into a winning position if they can put up a total in excess of 150.
CS vs KW Dream11 Prediction
Colombo Stars have the slightly better personnel required for a game like this, and perhaps their players might rise to the occasion. The suggestion for fantasy managers would be to pick a majority of the players from their side.
CS vs KW Dream11 Captaincy Picks
Charith Asalanka: Asalanka has been scoring a decent amount of runs, garnering 146 of them this tournament at a strike rate of 140. He is a top choice for captaincy in small leagues.
Dinesh Chandimal: Chandimal has collected 380 fantasy points thus far, and can contribute with bat and wicket-keeping. He has scored 231 runs at a strike rate of 151, and is more than worthy of being captain in mega leagues.
Kusal Mendis: One can expect consistent returns from Kusal Mendis, who thus far has mustered 194 runs at a strike rate of 146.97. You can make him vice-captain and a good outcome can occur out of it.
CS vs KW Dream11 Budget Picks
Jeffrey Vandersay: The veteran leg-break bowler hasn’t played a lot of games this season, and was decent against Jaffna last game despite his teammates getting him for a lot of runs. He costs just 8 credit points.
Naveen-ul-Haq: The Afghani speedster has 8 wickets in 7 games, and registered brilliant figures of 3/27 in his last outing. He can be a pivotal pick for your team at just 8.5 credits.
Kennar Lewis: The Caribbean cricketer has done a decent job in the tournament, scoring 147 runs in 5 outings, including 1 half-century. He is a valuable addition for 8.5 credits.
