Match 16 of the Lanka Premier League (LPL) has the Jaffna Stallions taking on Kandy Tuskers at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium on Wednesday.

The Jaffna Stallions sit at the top of the table, with nine points in six games. While they are already assured of a semi-final berth, Thisara Perera and Co. will look to get another win in this fixture.

Their opponents, the Kandy Tuskers, are in the race for a semi-final berth but would want to get their mojo back after losing to Colombo Kings in their previous game. With only a handful of games left in the league stage, a lot will be expected of their star opening pair of Kusal Perera and Rahmanullah Gurbaz.

The Stallions are the undoubted favorites ahead of this game, although they should be wary of a power-packed batting unit that the Tuskers have. With two valuable points up for grabs, another cracking game of cricket beckons at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium.

Pitch Report

A high-scoring game beckons at the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Stadium, despite there being ample help on offer for the bowlers. The pacers should get the ball to swing around a bit early on, which should make for a great contest in the powerplay overs.

With the pitch likely to get slower as the match progresses, the spinners will also come into play. The dimensions of the ground, however, wouldn't be too kind to them. Both the teams will look to bat first in this afternoon clash with 170 being par at this venue.
