Puneri Paltan and Bangalore Bulls are set to clash in the first match on 4th day of the Chennai leg at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium as a part of the Pro Kabaddi League 2019.
Both the teams have come out all the guns blazing in this game and have matches each other, blow for blow. Pune’s top show on the defensive front has canceled out Pawan threat, and he will need to strike back in order to see the winners of the Bulls.
Puneri Paltan is at the bottom of the table with the three consecutive losses in a row as they desperately look for a win. Moreover, a win for the Bangalore Bulls from this contest will see them jump on to the top spot of the points table.
Debundant Pankaj has emerged as Puneri Plata savior in the offense with 38 raid points, coming in as a substitution for most of the matches. Nitin, after his comeback from a shoulder injury, will be looking to get back in touch along with the Manjeet as a Do or Die raider.
PO Surjeet Singh scored his first High 5 of the season in his recent encounter against the Tamil Thalaivas. He will look to continue his form against the Bulls, with the Hadi Tajik and Sagar B serving as the team’s corner defenders. As the team’s left covers have failed to aid the defense so far, Girish could be the filling in the shoes as the left cover.
For the Bulls, Mahender Singh could make his return tonight and is the top scorer for Bengaluru Bulls from the defensive front with 22 tackle points. Saurabh Nandal has been consistent for the team from the right corner position and has struck a good partnership with Amit Sheoran as the left corner. Vijay Kumar might get another game as the right cover defender.
