It’s been a well fought Lanka Premier League 2020 so far but we’ve come to the end of the round robin stage and into the knockouts. We began with 5 teams and after finishing last on the points table, Kandy Tuskers didn’t make it to the semi finals. In Semi Final 1, we have the top placed team Colombo Kings in action who has had a great season so far with 6 wins in 8 matches, and their favourites to win today too.
They’re up against Galle Gladiators who just managed to qualify for the semi finals, with only 2 wins in 8 games but having just a narrow edge in terms of net run rate over Kandy. It’s going to be a massive effort if Galle have to win this and enter the LPL T20 2020 final. The good thing is that Galle won the last encounter between these sides!

Colombo Kings
While he had a pretty mediocre season initially with 1 fifty in 6 innings, Laurie Evans has peaked at the right time and with a fifty and century (both unbeaten) in his last couple of outings, we think he’s a must have in this CK vs GG semi final game. Apart from him, Dinesh Chandimal has shown some really good form as well, with 232 runs in 8 games and we wouldn’t want to leave him out from today’s team either.
When you talk Colombo, you can’t forget about a certain Andre Russell who is a safe pick to be your fantasy captain or vice-captain because he’s got 8 wickets and 158 runs in 7 games so far and has been more or less fit in LPL 2020 so far. Another person who has done well with the ball is Qais Ahmad from Afghanistan who is their top wicket-taker this season with 11 scalps in 8 games so far.
Galle Gladiators
On the run scorers list, Danushka Gunathilaka is miles ahead of everyone else with 4 fifties in the season so far and he’s not someone you want to leave out of your CK vs GG fantasy team. If you want another specialist batting option, there’s Afghanistan’s Hazratullah Zazai who has only 28 runs in 3 games but his top score of 20 came in the last outing and remember, he can be a game-changer on his day!

The side is being captained by Bhanuka Rajapaksa and while he’s only got a couple of thirties with the bat this season, he has been bowling every now and then and is a worthy addition to your My11Circle (Get Rs.500 Bonus) CK vs GG fantasy team. With the ball, Lakshan Sandakan has gone wicketless only once and with 8 scalps in 6 games so far, he’s a sure selection in my team today as well.
