Jaipur Pink Panthers
The Jaipur Pink Panthers are now at their final chance in the PKL. They have won just one out of their previous eleven matches but must end the group stages on a high. They have two games remaining and losing is not an option.
First up against the Jaipur Pink panthers are the Bengaluru Bulls.
Just how the Jaipur Pink Panthers are going to be able to stop a maurading Pawan Kumar Sehrawat is going to be interesting to see. The Jaipur Pink Panthers defense is going to be in the line of fire and this is where Sandeep Dhull has to lead the way.
A brilliant start to the PKL has devolved into an average season. This is the time when he must stand up and deliver for the team. He is going to have some good support from Vishal, who has blossomed in the recent matches as well.
The onus of scoring points must fall on the best raider of the side, which is Deepak Niwas Hooda. He knows that the fortunes of the entire side depend on him and he thrives on such situations. He has the drive to keep trying till the end and must play this match fearlessly.
The current form of the Jaipur Pink Panthers has not been the best and this is why they will have to come up with something absolutely brilliant to try and win this match.
Bengaluru Bulls
A record-breaking performance where Pawan Kumar Sehrawat scored 39 points on his own has shown just what kind of destruction he is capable of. Of course, it is a credit to the other players in the side who waited selflessly and allows Sehrawat to raid again and again.
The Bengaluru Bulls are assured of their place in the playoffs and can take it a bit easy. We would like to see someone other than Sehrawat take the lead in the raiding department as well.
It must be remembered that the Bengaluru Bulls were putting a poor defensive display before being rescued by Pawan Kumar Sehrawat. The likes of Mahender Singh and Saurabh Nandal must use these final few group matches to get back into the best frame of mind possible.
Key Stat
The Bengaluru Bulls have a massive 7-2 lead over the Jaipur Pink Panthers in head to head encounters.
We think the Bengaluru Bulls are going to be able to win this match thanks to the brilliant form of Pawan Kumar Sehrawat. The Jaipur Pink Panthers are going to be under immense pressure and that is the time when the most mistakes happen.
Bet on the Bengaluru Bulls to win
