Match Analysis

Jaipur Pink Panthers

The Jaipur Pink Panthers would be very disappointed in the manner that they lost their opening match. They could get just 27 points in that match and just seemed completely lost. One of the major reasons for such a poor showing was the fact that Deepak Niwas Hooda had a poor game. He is the heart and soul of this team and one of the most prolific scorers in the history of the PKL. For him to score just four points in the entire match was a massive blow. Still, we think he is a class act and should bounce back strongly. Arjun Deshwal is the other raider that is going to be able to support Hooda as the Jaipur Pink Panthers look to make a move upward in the standings.

Sandeep Dhull and Amit Hooda lead the defense. Both these players are very experienced and do not make many mistakes.

Haryana Steelers

A young Haryana Steelers team seemed to have the upper hand against the Patna Pirates in its opening match before losing momentum in the second half. We saw that the defense for the Steelers is going to be a problem for all opponents in the PKL. Surender Nada picked up a High-5 and showed just how good he can be even when the odds seemed stacked against him. Jaideep also did quite well and is another player to watch out for.

The challenge for the Steelers is going to be in getting its offense right. Meetu Mahender came into the team with a big reputation but he found the going tough in the first match. Vikash Khandola, Rohit Gulia, and Shrikant Tewthia are all very good raiders and add a lot of depth to the squad. We still have to see some good performances from them, though.

Key stat

No team has scored fewer points than the Jaipur Pink Panthers did (27) in their opening match. The Haryana Steelers had a raid success rate of over 45%, which is very good, in the first match.

Verdict

We are going to bet on the Haryana Steelers to win this match. They have shown a lot more intent, energy, and talent on the mat in PKL 2021-22 so far. The Jaipur Pink Panthers seem to be a side that is stuck in the past somewhat and is going to find it hard to change things around quickly.

Bet on the Haryana Steelers to win.
