In Match 18 of the ongoing edition of the Lanka T10 League, it will be table-topple Jaffna Titans taking on Kandy Bolts at the Pallekele International Stadium in Pallekele on Monday (December 16).

There is a real head-and-shoulder difference between Jaffna Titans and Kandy Bolts' positions this season. The Titans are ruling the points table, sitting at the pole position with 9 points after five games. Meanwhile, the Bolts are placed in the penultimate place with three points after five games.

In their last game, the Titans dismantled the Umar Akmal-led Nuwara Eliya Kings. Batting first, Tom Abell and Charith Asalanka's efforts took the Titans to 153/4. Chasing the mighty score, no one apart from Chamika Karunaratne (58 off 26) stood tall. Alas, they lost the game by 53 runs, thanks to Pramod Madushan's 3 for 8.

On the other hand, Kandy Bolts are coming off a massive loss in their last game as Hambantota Bangla Tigers outclassed them. Thanks to Mohammad Shahzad and Dasun Shanaka, the Bangla Tigers secured the highest total of the season, smashing 163/6. With the ball, Tharindu Ratnayake starred as they won the game by 47 runs.
