Vantaa Cricket Club Preview

Vantaa CC has been bowled out for less than 90 runs twice in the last 3 matches (83/10 & 86/10).  Manoj Achchige, Mathura Milan, Chanaka Jayasinghe, and Ursan Tavernier have played some cameos of 20s and 30s but are not consistent in all the matches. Their batting unit must bat sensibly to put more runs on board.

Sanjeewa Pethahandi and Nipuna Pathabendi were the only bowlers to bowl decently with combined figures of 8-0-44-3. The rest of the bowlers gave runs at over 9 RPO and leaked 113 runs in the remaining 12 overs.  

Key Players:

Nipuna Pethahandi – Pethahandi has taken 2 wickets each in the last three matches with figures of 2/26, 2/14, & 2/14 respectively. He is improving with the ball in hand in every match and will be vital bowler for their team.  

Manoj Achchide – Achchide played a lone hand of 32 runs in the last match as no other batsmen touched the two-figure mark. He tops their batting charts with 68 runs so far in his  4 innings.

Vantaa Cricket Club Predicted Playing XI:

Nalanka Hangamuwe, Nipuna Patabendi, Lahiru Hikkaduwa, Sanjeewa Pethahandi, Kim Tavierner, Manoj Mahamada, Ravi Sanjeewa, Chanaka Jayasinghe, Ranuka Shiran, RS Kanigala, Chanaka Jayasinghe

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Kerava has a bit of dark and gloomy weather on the match day with 50% chances of rain. We expect the rain won’t play spoilsport in the game as it would just be a passing shower.

Venue Details

Kerava pitch is going through wear and tear due to the used nature of the pitch. Teams scampered to below-par scores of less than 120 in the last two matches. The pitch gets better as the match goes on and makes shot making a bit easier. We can expect average scores in the range of 130-150 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bowl

Chasing teams have good success in the recent matches and teams will look to chase down the total despite the better success ratio for teams batting first.
