The game is about to begin here and the teams are coming out!!!!
Good evening ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the live coverage of the Pro Kabaddi 2016 Season 4 match between Jaipur Pink Panthers and Bengal Warriors at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium in Jaipur. U Mumba kept their composure to beat Dabang Delhi in a cracker that went down to the wire.
Both teams have started the tournament fairly well with Jaipur Pink Panthers playing one game more than Bengal Warriors. Furthermore, both will be looking to get their second win of the season and move clear of those lying in the bottom half of the table. Pink Panthers are currently third on the table with 9 points and coming on the back of a pulsating draw against Bengaluru Bulls.
Bengal Warriors, on the other hand, are fifth on the table with six points, having lost one and won the other game. After winning their opening game against Dabang Delhi, Warriors were overwhelmed by Mohit Chhillar‘s Bengaluru Bulls and they will be really disappointed with the kind of mistakes they made in that match, including and especially the one made by captain and star defender Nilesh Shinde.
There will be plenty of attacking prowess on display with the likes of Shabeer Bapu, Jasvir Singh and Jang Kun Lee gunning to do the best for their teams. Rajesh Narwal has been exceptionally good for Jaipur Pink Panthers and is their best raider this season with 11 successful raids and is closely followed by Bapu and Singh, who have 10 apiece.
Nilesh Shinde, one of the best defenders in the business, has effected 7 successful tackles till now. In fact, the partnership of Nilesh Shinde and Girish Ernak could prove to be the undoing of Jaipur tonight should the two of them bring their A game to the mat. However, Jaipur will be at home and would like to get a win under their belt to draw level with Puneri Paltan, who are at the top of the points table, on 14 points.
In a lot of ways, this game will be a defence vs attack case and Jaipur’s raiding team would want to get the better of Bengal’s defence. It will be interesting to see how Nilesh Shinde and Girish Ernak strategise to stop Shabeer Bapu and Jasvir Singh. If Bengal Warriors can manage to curb the Jaipur attack, it would give Jang Kun Lee the license to express himself and show how good he can be.
