Their raiders have performed consistently with their leading raid-points scorer, Shrikant Jadhav bagging 139 raid points in 21 matches. Surender Gill, Rishank Devadiga, and Monu Goyat have contributed to the team 60-plus raid points each.
UP Yoddha managed to win three out of four matches in their home leg as they beat Dabang Delhi K.C., Puneri Paltan and Bengaluru Bulls. Their only setback was against the Telugu Titans on the fourth day of Greater Noida leg.
UP Yoddha will square off against Bengaluru Bulls in Eliminator 1 on 14th October as the winner of that match will face Dabang Delhi K.C. in the first semi-final. With such a balanced starting seven in their line-up, they look an irresistible force heading into the knockouts.
