TOP 5 JK vs DA BETTING TIPS: 

1. Total wickets will be under 12.5

Formidable batting lineup is possibly the biggest asset of both Jaffna Kings and Dambulla Aura heading midway in the competition. Both the marquee sides feature some renowned campaigners and hence we do not expect over 12 dismissals in the high-octane fixture on Sunday.

2. Rehmanullah Gurbaz will score over 19.5 runs

The emerging opening batsman from Afghanistan is certainly the most exciting member of Jaffna Kings’ batting unit. Batting at the top order, Gurbaz has played an extensive role in Afghanistan’s rise in T20 Cricket in the ongoing year. He has failed to contribute to the team in the opening two games and we are bound to witness a notable knock from him sooner than later.

3. Jaffna Kings’ total sixes will be over 4.5

Multiple batters in the Jaffna Kings’ batting lineup are known for their attacking strokeplay. The list includes the likes of Avishka Fernando, Rehmanullah Gurbzaz, Shoaib Malik, Thisara Parera and multiple others. We expect way more than five sixes from Jaffna in the high-octane clash.

4. Total runs in the first over will be under 5.5

Batters generally opt to play it safe and take minimal risks upfront in the innings. Considering the overcast and cloudy overhead conditions, the opening batters of both teams are likely to stick to the merit and avoid playing risky ariel shots, especially in the first over of the match.

5. Bhanuka Rajapaksa will score over 18.5 runs

The renowned Sri Lankan batter, namely, Rajapaksa is leading Dambulla Aura’s batting lineup in the LPL 2022. Hallmarking his presence in the Indian Premier League, The Southpaw has gained a wide experience in his young career. Rely on him to play a mammoth knock on Sunday.

JK vs DA FINAL VERDICT:

The much-anticipated encounter between second-positioned Jaffna Kings and fourth-positioned Dambulla Aura has plenty to offer to both sides. A big win will help Jaffna climb all the way up to the top position in the points tally, while Dambulla will eye on achieving their first win.

Jaffna Kings heads into the game as runaway favourites and we back them to get the better of Dambulla Aura on Sunday. The Thisara Parera-led side has shown a brilliant Cricketing display in the ongoing competition, having achieved two victories in three games up front.
