The Jaipur Pink Panthers overcame the Dabang Delhi threat on Thursday, by a slender margin of 24-22. Skipper Jasvir Singh's return to form with 7 raid points against Delhi turned the tide in favour of Jaipur. The young sensation Ajay Kumar complemented his skipper really well in do-or-die situations. The duo along with Rajesh Narwal will face a stern test against the best defence of Pro Kabaddi season 4.
Jaipur’s best signing of the season Shabeer Bapu tormented the Patna attack, with two super tackles and a super five to his name in the previous clash. Shabeer’s form hasn’t peaked up after the all-round show against the defending champions. The former Mumbai raider should come good in today’s mouth-watering contest.
Ran Singh’s brilliant tackles on the left corner played a huge role in deciding the outcome of the match against Delhi. The trio of Ran Singh, Rohit Rana and Amit Hooda will be tested in today’s battle against the crafty Pardeep Narwal.
The cornerstones of Patna defence Dharmaraj Cheralathan and Fazel Atrachali is turning out to be a deadliest defensive pair in Pro Kabaddi season 4. Standing tall with a combined 55 tackle points, the duo needs to carry their impressive run against the Pink Panthers. Bajirao Hodage’s should ably support the corner defenders in today’s match.
Pardeep Narwal’s masterclass raids wasn’t enough for the Pirates to clinch a win over Jaipur in the previous clash. With 77 raid points in 10 matches, Pardeep occupies the second position in the leaderboard. The Jaipur defence outclassed Rajesh Mondal in the previous encounter and it will be interesting to see the tactics of the former Bengaluru raider in today’s match.
The past encounters between Patna and Jaipur in Pro Kabaddi had produced intriguing battles. The head to head stands 5-3 in favour of the Pirates, however, Jaipur defeated Patna at the Patliputra sports complex, two nights after Delhi ended their unbeaten run in the same venue.
It’s going to be a battle between Jaipur’s attack against Patna’s defence. Let’s wait and watch who comes out on top.
