The battle of the Narwals will see Patna's Pardeep try and outlast former team-mate, Sandeep, who is a leading all-rounder in the league, and one of Pune's best players.

Both teams are currently second in their respective zones, with the Pirates still unbeaten, having accumulated 18 points from their four matches, while the Paltan have 16 points from their four matches, having lost only one match.

Pardeep Narwal has been in scintillating form this season as well, and has so far amassed a tally of 51 points in four matches. His ability to pull off incredibly difficult raids will serve him well against a strong and agile defender like Sandeep, who has so far contributed 24 points, 12 while tackling and 12 while raiding.
