Match 20 of the Lanka Premier League has the Dambulla Viiking taking on the Colombo Kings at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium on Friday.
Both the Kings and the Viiking are already through to the semi-finals, as they currently occupy the top two spots in the points table. While the Viiking's batting unit has come up with the goods quite regularly, the Kings all-rounders - Andre Russell and Angelo Mathews - have impressed of late. Dinesh Chandimal and Qais Ahmad have also been consistent for the Kings, who are touted by many as the favourites for the tournament.
The reverse fixture between the two sides saw the Dambulla Viiking beat the Colombo Kings by 28 runs. While the Viiking will be eyeing the double over them, the Kings will have revenge on their mind in what promises to be a great game of cricket to close out the league phase of the Lanka Premier League 2020.

Pitch Report
A high-scoring game beckons in Hambantota, despite there being some help on offer for the bowlers. The pacers have enjoyed conditions with the new ball, which has made life tough for the batsmen early on.
The spinners should also come into play as the match progresses, with some turn on offer. With dew expected to play a part, both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss in this high-octane clash.
