Jaipur Pink Panthers
Deepak Niwas Hooda had another very quiet night against the Telugu Titans and it showed in the manner with which the Jaipur Pink Panthers struggled. They were kept in the game only die the brilliance of its defensive unit that pulled off four consecutive super-tackles at one point in time.
The raiding unit for the Jaipur Pink Panthers has been struggling for quite some time now. Deepak Niwas Hooda was so dominant in the earlier part of the tournament that the Pink Panthers do not seem to have an answer when he is not at his best.
Nilesh Salunke and the others will need to step to help put pressure on the Bengaluru Bulls in this match.
Bengaluru Bulls
A brilliant start to the match against Dabang Delhi K.C. did not translate into a win as the Bulls lost their way in the second half. The defense started to fall apart and Pawan Kumar Sehrawat also was not able to add to his points tally at the same speed that he started with.
This is something that has been happening to the Bengaluru Bulls who now have lost four out of their last five matches. The tactics that the other teams seem to be applying against them is to attack Pawan Kumar Sehrawat by bringing in the cover defense and trying to encircle him.
It has made life difficult for Sehrawat and the Bulls turn into half the team without him on the mat.
Mahender Singh and Saurabh Nandal were good in the defense against Dabang Delhi K.C. before Naveen Kumar started running away with things.
A lot at stake in this match otherwise the wheels will start to come off the Bengaluru Bulls PKL 2019 season.
The Jaipur Pink Panthers have a 6-4 lead in the head to head matches against the Bengaluru Bulls. One another match ended in a tie.
We think the Bengaluru Bulls should be able to win this match against the Jaipur Pink Panthers that seem to have really lost their way with the loss of form for Deepak Niwas Hooda. Both the teams are closely matched and have similar strengths so we could be in for a very close match.
Bet on the Bengaluru Bulls to win.
