CJ vs HBT Key Players

Vijaykanth Viyashkanth

Viyashkanth is a talented and upcoming youngster. He hasn't had too many chances in the national side with competition heavy but he will be looking to add his name in the list.

Matheesha Pathirana

Thusara's slinging action makes him an asset in short form cricket and he is someone with a good amount of control. While he may be lower on pace he has the accuracy to make up for it.
