The live streaming for the Pro Kabaddi season 4 game between the Jaipur Pink Panthers vs Dabang Delhi will be available on starsports.com from 20:00 IST. The match will be telecasted live from DOME@NSCI SVP Stadium, Mumbai and will be aired on Star Sports 2 (HD) in English and Star Sports 3 (HD) in Hindi.
The young sensation Ajay Kumar has been sublime for the Panthers this season, the 22-year old’s stellar performances compensating the poor run of his senior counterparts. The do-or-die specialist has scored 42 raid points so far, using his fast movements and long reach. Ajay will be tested in today's battle against the defensive beast of Sachin Shingade.
The duo of Jasvir Singh and Rajesh Narwal should ably support Ajay Kumar in today's match. The allrounder Rajesh Narwal dismantled the Delhi defence when these two teams met earlier. But, the 26-year old hasn’t been able to repeat the kind of performance since. Rajesh, though, remains a vital cog in the Jaipur armour.
The defence of Jaipur spearheaded by Amit Hooda, on the right corner could have a big say in today’s match. With 30 tackle points, the in-form Hooda will face a stern test against the all-round abilities Meraj Sheykh.
The Dabangs from Delhi have to win all their remaining matches to stay in the in the race for the knockout games. To be honest, they have done extremely well to stay in the race so far down the competition, but now is the real test of character.
Delhi’s defensive wall, Sachin Shingade has to come good against the dangerous attacking trio of Ajay Kumar, Jasvir Singh and Rajesh Narwal. The Iranian wizard Meraj Sheykh has bailed the team out of crunch situations on many occasions and his athletic raids will be integral to trouble the cornerstones of Jaipur’s defence Ran Singh and Amit Hooda.
Kashiling Adake's performance has gone from bad to worse in the last match. The 23-year-old who scored more than 100 raid points in the first two seasons, has scored just 26 points in the 9 matches. It’s high time for Kashi to deliver, and the match against Pink Panthers will be a good place to start.
The head to head stands 5-1 in favour of Jaipur, and moreover, the Dabangs endured a humiliating defeat against Jaipur last time around, by a huge margin of 26-51. It will be interesting to see how they respond in today’s match.
It will be a battle between Jaipur’s attack and Delhi’s defence.
