Preview for JK vs KW Dream11 Contest
After losing their opening game of the season, the Jaffna Kings re-established themselves in the tournament and are living up to the status of a defending champion. They registered three wins on the trot, and they face the Kandy Warriors next up, who registered a morale-boosting win in their fixture on Saturday. However, with the form Kings are in, it will be a pretty tough job for the Warriors to negate their threat.

Pitch Report
The track has proven to be more productive in the afternoon fixtures for batters, and we could witness a high-scoring encounter. However, the batters will have to remain wary of the threat spinners pose in these conditions.

JK vs KW Dream11 Prediction
The Jaffna Kings are on a stellar run as it stands, and the fantasy managers should be depending on their players predominantly for better results. There are a couple of good multiplier options in the Warriors setup, but it would be suggestible to pick the captain and vice-captain from the Kings’ unit.
JK vs KW Dream11 Captaincy Picks
Wanindu Hasaranga: There’s just no ignoring the sheer quality Wanindu Hasaranga brings to the table. He has picked up 7 wickets and can contribute with the bat as well, making him a viable option for captaincy in small leagues.
Tom Kohler-Cadmore: The 27-year-old from Kent has emerged as a major source of runs for the Kings at the top of the order. He scored 109 runs thus far, which includes a couple of good cameos, making him worthy of a gamble in captaincy in mega leagues.
Maheesh Theekshana: The young off-break bowler is turning out to be a pivotal cog for the Kings, having picked up 8 wickets in 4 games. He is a top choice for vice-captaincy across all competitions.
JK vs KW Dream11 Budget Picks
Shoaib Malik: He chipped in with a sensational 24-ball 44 in the last game for the Kings, and is looking in supreme touch. Add to it the experience he brings and his 8.5 credits tag doesn’t seem like a lot.
Sachindu Colombage: Another young leg-spinner on the rise in Sri Lanka is Sachindu Colombage, who has picked up 4 wickets in the tournament at a decent economy. He costs 8.5 credits.
Ashen Bangara: Bandara made his way into the XI last game and had an instant impact, scoring 42 off 30 balls including 3 fours and a six. He is a brilliant option for 8 credit points.
