"We wanted to check our other players" - Bengal Warriorz Head coach on not playing Devank Dalal against Bengaluru Bulls
Bengal Warriorz once again went in without their regular captain and star raider, Devank Dalal. Following their defeat against the Bengaluru Bulls, their head coach, Naveen Kumar, stated that they wanted to try out other players for the next season.
While they did not doubt Devank's abilities, he reckoned that it was important to see how to build the team for the future.
"I have told before also that Devank is among the top raiders in the league. But we wanted to check our other players to make the team for the next season, to retain them or not. He has done his job as the lead raiders as well. He scored 271 points too. But we are at the bottom. We have no doubts on his performance. But we also need to see how to build the team along with that," he said.
The Warriorz are at the bottom of the table. They ended the league stage on a poor note with a heavy defeat. The team will aim to come back stronger next season and put up an improved performance.
