KT vs CK Dream11 prediction: Match preview

If the previous match between the Kandy Tuskers and the Colombo Kings is anything to go by, Saturday's match promises to be a cracker of a game. Playing in the inaugural match of the tournament, both teams put up 219 runs each - the highest scores of the series so far. A thrilling Super Over saw the Colombo Kings win the game, starting off the Kandy Tuskers on a slippery slope of losses that they will be eager to avenge. 

Both teams have had contrasting campaigns at the League since that first match. The Kandy Tuskers have managed to win just one game at the tournament, against the Galle Gladiators. With just two points, the Tuskers are placed above only the Gladiators on the points table and will have to fight hard to make it to the playoffs. Even with a win on Saturday, the Tuskers will stay second-last on the table.

The Colombo Kings, meanwhile, have lost just one game in the tournament as of now. With three wins from four games, the Kings are in second place on the points table. An exceptional margin of victory could take the team over the Jaffna Stallions to first place tonight. A few more wins could ensure the Kings a spot in the playoffs and a chance to win the maiden Lanka Premier League title.
