The match is scheduled to start at 03:30 PM Local Time and IST. This match will be telecasted on Sony Six.

Preview:

The two sides who will clash tomorrow for the 5th match of Lanka Premier League have had a good start to their campaign. Jaffna Stallions outperformed their opposition Galle Gladiators in every department, as they went on to secure an 8-wicket win.

The road to victory, however, was not as smooth as them for Dambulla Viiking. They did a fantastic job with the bat, but their bowlers were struggling to contain the batting unit of Kandy Tuskers. Had it not been for rain, things might have been different. However, they won the game by 4 runs courtesy of the D/L method.
