Openers Jordan Cox (43 runs off 22 balls) & Shevon Daniel (19 runs) gave a solid start for the first wicket. They scored more than half of the runs for the team. However other batsmen failed to deliver. Their bowlers also looked clueless. The team need to figure out so that they can register a win against the Stars. Sikandar Raza and Dasun Shanaka are very experienced player and they need to step up today. Van Meekeren can turn out to be the match winner.

Colombo Stars- Stars could not score much in their first match will look to deliver against Giants. They have experienced players like Dinesh Chandimal, Angelo Mathews and Ravi Bopara. Dominic Drakes and Keemo Paul played a solid innings in the first match will be the key players to watch. Their bowling looks inexperienced, so Suranga Lakmal & Keemo Paul have to step up.
