PKL 8, Match 30: Bengal Warriors Vs Jaipur Pink Panthers Preview
On day six of week 2, defending champions Bengal Warriors will be up against the inaugural champions Jaipur Pink Panthers. This will be Champion’s Battle.
Team Analysis:
Bengal Warriors
The team lost their match against Patna Pirates. Skipper Maninder Singh is doing a good job in raiding. But he does not get any support from other raiders such as Nabibakhsh, Sukesh Hegde or Rishank Devadiga. The defense of Abozar Mohajermighani, Darshan J, Sachin Vitthala is completely messed up.
Jaipur Pink Panthers
They faced a defeat against U Mumba. Arjun Deshwal and skipper Deepak Niwas Hooda are raiding well for the team. But their defense of Shaul Kumar, Cheralathan, Sandeep Dhull, Amit, and Nitin Rawal looks silent. It needs to be back in form.
