#3 Defenders
Pirates bought five defenders. Jaideep is their best defender in Season five. He scored 71 tackle points in 26 matches. Others on the list are Manish, Vijay Kumar, Ravinder Kumar and Vikas kale. Manish is retained by Patna Pirates.
He scored 22 tackle points in season five. Pirates bought experienced Vikas Kale for 27 lakhs. Vijay Kumar and Ravinder are yet to make their mark in the league. Though there are only a couple of good defenders on the list, the defense of the team is good since most of the all-rounders are good defenders.
Patna Pirates will start the season as clear favorites. This team is very balanced with a lot of good all-rounders. Patna Pirates is a force to reckon with for other teams.
