Patna Pirates Team News
Pardeep Narwal has continued his brilliant form from last season, scoring back to back Super 10s in PKL 6 from his 2 matches. He has scored 27 points in PKL 6 so far at an average of 13.5. He was well supported by Manjeet and Deepak Narwal. Manjeet scored scored 8 raid points against Tamil Thalaivas at a strike rate of 73 while in the second game Deepak Narwal showed his raiding skills scoring 7 raid points at a strike raid from 64. Patna Pirates’ defense collective performance against UP Yodda in Match 9 of PKL 2018 helped them outclass UP Yoddha in dying moments of the game but the left corner is still a concern. Pirates’ Jaideep was the third joint leading tackle point scorer of PKL 5 with 71 tackle points. However, his performance in PKL 6 is dismal so far as he scored just 1 tackle point in first game and 3 in the 2nd game, but he has failed 5 times each in both games.
UP Yoddha Team news
For UP Yoddha, Nitesh Kumar at right corner is crucial as Nitesh tackled Pardeep 3 times in the first meeting between these teams in PKL 6, while Pardeep was successful just once against him. Nitesh is continuing the good form he showed in Season 5, where he scored 47 tackle points for Yoddha with a SR of 50. Jeeva Kumar did not play when these two sides met the first time. His replacement in that game, Amit, was constantly targeted by Pardeep Narwal and was tagged 4 times. The Yoddha corners, Sagar Krishna along with Nitesh Kumar, have performed well so far, but the left cover position has become a weakness if Jeeva does not play. The UP defence also needs to avoid giving continuous Bonus Points as they gave away 13 in their first match against Patna, the joint 2nd most by a team in PKL history.
