Jaffna Stallions will take on Galle Gladiators in the Final Match of LPL 2020, aka Lanka Premier League which, will be played at the Mahinda Rajapaksa Stadium in Hambantota. The premier T20 competition in Sri Lanka has reached its knockout stages.
The Gladiators won just two of their eight league games, whereas they were lucky in the semi-final too. Jaffna Stallions, on the other hand, played well in the league stages and won four of them. This game can be a close game where the Stallions are going to have some advantage.
Pitch Report – This pitch is brilliant for batting and, we can expect a high-scoring game. However, spinners and slow-bowlers are going to have some advantage.
