After the Lanka Premier League 2021 round robin ended, it’s time for the business stage of the tournament, with only four playoffs left to be played. We’re talking about the LPL 2021 Playoffs and the first of these games is the Eliminator where Colombo Stars is in action as the action moves from the RPS Stadium in Colombo to Hambantota, and it’s the first game here so we’re not sure how the pitch here will behave as yet.
Stars have managed 4 wins in 8 games in the LPL 2021 tournament and they qualified for the playoffs in their last game of the season. They’re up against Dambulla Giants who barely managed to scrape through to the LPL 2021 playoffs, with 3 wins in 8 games and they are the underdogs in this game.

Colombo Stars
With 12 scalps in 7 games in LPL 2021 so far, Seekkuge Prasanna has been on top of his game this season. He’s got plenty of experience in franchise leagues and a couple of games back, he scored 32(6)* to finish a game, and he’s in our CS vs DG fantasy team. Joining the team only recently in LPL 2021, Jeffrey Vandersay is a must pick too, getting a record 6-fer in the last game which included a triple-wicket maiden.
He’s got only one fifty in 8 games in LPL 2021 so far but Dinesh Chandimal has been on top of his form right now, with 275 runs so far at a strike rate of 150+. He’s the highest run scorer in the league right now and should be in our CS vs DG Dream11 team today. Captain Angelo Mathews has proved that experience is more important than anything else, throwing himself up and down the order and scoring runs at all positions in his 4 games this season.
Dambulla Giants
With 97 runs in 7 games in LPL 2021, middle-order batsman Najibullah Zadran hasn’t been able to adjust to conditions here, and we’re keeping him out of our team here. Instead, we have someone who joined the squad only recently with only two games played. Though he got a duck in the last game, we’re still picking Janith Liyanage in out team because he scored 51 in his first appearance of the season.

Niroshan Dickwella has also been poor this season with an average of below 17 and we’re leaving him out of our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) CS vs DG fantasy team but picking Philip Salt who is their top scorer with 2 fifties this season. The local bowlers haven’t been great for this side and we’ll pick the overseas pros like Imran Tahir (13 scalps) and Ireland’s Joshua Little who has 3 scalps in 3 games this season.
