Sitting second with three wins out of four games, Galle Marvels find themselves in a fruitful situation as they gear up to take on Dambulla Sixers in the 12th match of the ongoing Lanka Premier League on Tuesday at Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, Dambulla. Marvels have made a good start to their campaign as they have successfully been able to pick up the momentum required to accelerate their campaign.
