Match Analysis

Jaipur Pink Panthers

Take Arjun Deshwal out of the Pink Panthers lineup and you really do not have much to work with. He has scored a Super-10 in every single match of the season but the Jaipur Pink Panthers have not been able to capitalize on that. Neither has the backup raiding from the likes of Deepak Niwas Hooda been good nor has the defense lived up to its end of the bargain. Experienced players like Sandeep Dhull are making error after error and that is holding the Jaipur Pink Panthers back. The team is always going to be dangerous because of the presence of Arjun Deshwal but it is by no means as superior a team to Puneri Paltan as the odds would have you believe.

Puneri Paltan

Aslam Inamdar and Mohit Goyat had an extraordinary match against the Gujarat Giants to lead Puneri Paltan to a win. The change in personnel seems to have worked and we expect this same raiding combination to continue for at least the next few matches. We are sure that Puneri Paltan would fancy going up against the Jaipur Pink Panthers in this next match. They have momentum on their side and would back its young raiders to do well once more. The real challenge for them is going to be to find a way to stop Arjun Deshwal.

That is where Vishal Bhardwaj will have to lead the way and take the initiative. As one of the best-ever defenders of PKL, he certainly has the talent to do it. His current form. though, has not been very good.

Key stat

Puneri Paltan has the least number of successful raids per match in PKL 2021-22 so far. The Jaipur Pink Panthers will be hoping that Arjun Deshwal can continue his record of scoring a Super-10 in every match this season.

Verdict

We are going to back the upset in this match and bet on Puneri Paltan. We think the odds being offered for the Jaipur Pink Panthers are too low and just not worth the risk. Instead, back the young and talented raiding duo from Puneri Paltan to pull off another upset.

Bet on Puneri Paltan to win.
