Vijay was sensational with 9 raid points while we saw Sandeep Narwal in a new avatar today, raiding his heart out and picking up 7 raid and a tackle point.

Dabang Delhi K.C. 19-10 Patna Pirates

Who would have possibly imagined that Delhi would have a 9-point lead over the Pirates in a game that Naveen Kumar is not playing! Nonetheless, that is the scenario and it has been a sublime show from the Delhi outfit tonight!

Right then, we have a top-of-the-table clash on our hands tonight! On one hand, the Dabang Delhi K.C. who have acquired 37 points in their ten matches and are placed third while on the other, the Patna Pirates sit second in the points table with a superior 39 points from the ten fixtures that they have been a part of so far. It has been a brilliant campaign for both sides in this tournament thus far and we can certainly expect them to come out all guns blazing to secure yet another win, which will propel the winner to the numero uno spot. 

Dabang Delhi, after suffering a humiliating 39-point defeat against the Bulls, were re-enforced with the return of Naveen Kumar as they edged past the Steelers by a bare margin of 3 points. However, it was not smooth sailing for the Delhi outfit as Naveen was sent to the bench on multiple occasions. Would it not have been for Vijay's belligerent Super 10, Delhi were staring at another loss on the trot after remaining loss-less till before their encounter against the Bulls. Nonetheless, Delhi will be hoping for similar contributions from their support raiders and will expect Naveen to run through the Pirates' defence. 

The Patna Pirates, meanwhile, have three wins, one loss and one tie from their previous five games. They come into this match on the back of an emphatic 7-point win against the Bulls. In the absence of star raider Monu Goyat, Sachin and the defence stepped up. Right corner defender Sunil stole the show with 9 tackle points to his name while the rest of the defence was on point. They will look to replicate a similar performance as they hope to stop a rampaging Naveen Kumar. We are in for a high-scoring thriller and expect raiders to wreak havoc in this contest.
