Dabang Delhi KC will take on Patna Pirates in the 72nd match of Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2023 at the SMS Indoor Stadium, Jaipur.

Dabang Delhi KC faced a daunting challenge with the loss of their star raider, Naveen Kumar. However, the absence of their talisman didn't deter the team's spirit, thanks to the emergence of a new hero – Ashu Malik. Taking on the mantle of captaincy, Ashu has orchestrated a string of memorable performances, clinching four consecutive Super 10s and spearheading Delhi's remarkable four-game winning streak. This triumphant surge has catapulted them to the third spot, boasting seven wins in 11 outings. Delhi, with their newfound momentum, now set their sights on extending their winning spree.

On the flip side, the Patna Pirates find themselves on a rollercoaster ride this season, juggling five wins and six defeats in 11 encounters. After securing two consecutive victories, they stumbled in their last two games. The last defeat, a 35-33 loss against the Bengaluru Bulls, stung the Pirates the most, as they squandered a game comfortably in their grasp. Now, with a burning desire for redemption, they set their sights on a comeback.
