In their opening game, Marvels successfully chased down a 178-run target against Jaffna Kings. Niroshan Dickwella and Alex Hales delivered match-winning knocks at the top.
Colombo Strikers saw their middle and lower-middle order step up and deliver big in their last match, posting 198 for 7 batting first. Muhammad Waseem, Sadeera Samawickrama, and Chamika Karunaratne were the top performers.
A brilliant bowling spell from Shadab Khan led the Strikers to a 51-run win over the Kandy Falcons.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Galle Marvels Preview
Niroshan Dickwella must be a happy skipper after getting his team off to a win in their first outing of the season. He played a solid hand at the top scoring 42 off 27 balls in the chase of 178 runs.
Alex Hales, his opening partner and the man of the match, was the highest run scorer for Marvels with 65 off 47 balls. This is great news for Galle going ahead in the season.
Hales is a big asset in T20 leagues and when he’s in great touch, he can single-handedly change the course of the match.
They’ve got some more big-hitting T20 stars in the middle order with Tim Seifert and Bhanuka Rajapaksa at 3 and 4. While neither of these two made a big impact in the last match but will be the key players to watch out for.
A lesser-known batting all-rounder with only 3 T20 internationals to his name, Janith Liyanage was the surprise performance for Galle Marvels.
He scored 25 off 13 balls at number 5 ensuring that the momentum of the run-chase wasn’t affected by the dismissals of Seifert and Rajapaksa.
Galle Marvels have a good variety in the bowling attack. And though this pitch favors the batters more, Dwaine Pretorius delivered a brilliant spell picking up 2 for 23 while M Theekshana finished with none for 24 from his 4 Overs.
Galle Marvels Predicted Playing XI:
Alex Hales, Niroshan Dickwella (c & wk), Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Tim Seifert, Janith Liyanage, Isuru Udana, Dwaine Pretorius, Maheesh Theekshana, Sahan Arachchige, Malsha Tharupathi, Zahoor Khan

Colombo Strikers Preview
A brilliant all-round performance saw the Strikers win their opening game by a margin of 51 runs. Shadab Khan, who scored 20 off 17 at number 6, picked up 4 wickets for 22 runs while defending a 198-run total.
Thisara Perera-led Colombo Strikers feature some of the best T20 players from the world. Rahmanullah Gurbaz opens the innings for them Muhammad Waseem comes in at number 3.
Though Glenn Phillips was out for a duck in the last match, he is a huge asset at number 5. He takes the attack to the bowlers and Strikers would be using him for the death overs.
He is followed by the experienced all-rounders Thisara Perera and Shadab Khan, both of whom can deliver with the bat. The batting lineup is quite deep as we saw in the recent game where Chamika Karunaratne delivered unbeaten 25 off 10 balls at number 8.
Dunith Wellalage, Shadab Khan, and Binura Fernando will be the key bowlers to watch out for in this side. Strikers also have a big variety in the bowling attack with Phillips also delivering a couple of overs.
Colombo Strikers Predicted Playing XI:
Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Shevon Daniel, Muhammad Waseem, Sadeera Samarawickrama (wk), Glenn Phillips, Thisara Perera (c), Shadab Khan, Chamika Karunaratne, Dunith Wellalage, Binura Fernando, Matheesha Pathirana

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
It is a great wicket for batting. However, the bowlers can also extract some help from this surface. The cutters will be the go-to deliveries for the pacers to deceive the batters trying to go big in the death. The weather will be mostly cloudy with a high of 31 degrees Celsius on the match day.

Pallekelle International Cricket Stadium in Pallekelle will be the venue for this match. The 5th match of the Lanka Premier League will be the last at this venue this season before the league moves to Dambulla. It has been a high-scoring ground so far and we reckon the team batting first should aim for something over 180-185 runs to stand a chance of winning here.
Toss: To Bat
There are plenty of runs on offer here. And though the team batting second can also score big, having a competitive total on board can be a huge advantage for the team batting first.

Winning Prediction
This will be a neck-and-neck contest between two well-matched squads. There is no dearth of talent in either side with some big-hitting T20 stars packed in the respective batting lineups. Galle Marvels have a slightly better bowling attack and find a slight edge over the Colombo Strikers in our match prediction. Hence, Galle Marvels will start as our favorites to win the match.
